Summary: A charming and well maintained home with everything you needed! Amazing gardens and stunning views from the front room. Everyone had a great time! Thank you for sharing this with us for our holiday to Oban. Only comment for improvement is bigger beds than a double. My wife and I are used to sleeping on something a little bigger :)

Summary: Our week at Al Cana is best described as home from home.We had a really enjoyable stay,the view to the front is truly spectacular and we were treated to some really glorious sunsets. The Falls of Lara are a great example of the power of sea and tide,well worth the short walk to watch. The test of any holiday stay is...Would you stay here again...Our answer a resounding..."Definitely ". Ray & Liz....Northumberland.

Summary: A lovely dog friendly cottage, with a fantastic view! The garden was big enough for the dog to run about in, to wear him out before bed time, though most days he didn't need it! The size was great for the 4 of us and the dog, we had enough space and privacy. The location was very good next to the Loch, though the road was quite busy, but the bedrooms are at the back so you hardly hear it at night. Nice to have blackout blinds in bedroom too , especially in June! We had a great time here for a week with our friends, our only criticism would be the lack of large pans for pasta etc. If you had 6 people( even if 2 were kids) you would need at least one large saucepan.

Summary: This is a comfortable house in a stunning location with a private sheltered garden. The living room faces the Loch, so has wonderful views. The owners were very helpful and responded quickly when we couldnโ€™t get the coffee machine to work (our own fault). It would have benefited from a more modern and smart television, but otherwise we were very comfortable.

Summary: Our first time visiting Scotland and the house was first class. Wonderful location with the most amazing views from the living room window. Great garden for our dog fully enclosed and safe. Lovely decor and very comfortable beds, spotless clean, the conservatory overlooking the garden a great place to eat our meals and nice to sit in when it rained. 10 minute drive to Oban, 2 minute drive to Falls of Lora hotel, good lunches and dinner. 10 minute drive to Lochnell Arms hotel, good lunch and views. Oyster Inn next door, good dinner and views. Communication with West Coast cottages was very good, overall we had an amazing time in this lovely house.

Summary: We all loved our stay here. My mum normally gets homesick and she did not here. It was extremely well equipped. Providing dishwasher tablets and washing tablets. The garden was secure enough for our terrier, though I did stay out with her as she would find the smallest of holes. The beds were comfy and the showers had enough pressure and were hot. The sofas didnโ€™t feel as comfy as we would have liked..but that is a totally minor issue. I couldnโ€™t stop staring at the view from the living room window and my camera roll may be full from all the stunning sunsets. I would definitely come again and use west coast cottages again. Also highly recommend the stay

Summary: House itself could use some improvements but location is excellent and a very well stocked kitchen for self catering holidays.

Summary: Superb location & lovely weather meant that we had a wonderful stay. Handrail banister bit sticky & double bed on small side. But the garden & wildlife made up for these minor issues. Thank you.

Summary: Location is good; on a busy road but not really a problem. Gateway can be a bit tight . Well thought out house with lots of things to make it very comfortable - underfloor heating, blackout blinds, automatic blind , good quality beds , good range of extras in kitchen etc. Fabulous views . Would definitely recommend

Summary: We had a wonderful stay at An Cala this Spring. The cottage was faultless - very clean, warm, spacious, views to die for, a safe enclosed rear garden and ample parking. The kitchen was really well equipped with everything you could think of, there were plenty of reading material on the local area with books of local walks and a selection of board games to keep everyone entertained in the evening. We loved watching the wildlife from the windows- saw otters and seals from the comfort of our armchairs. The area was a perfect base for exploring the beautiful countryside, our highlights from the week were climbing Beinn Lora, taking the ferry to Mull and pony trekking at Achnalarig near Oban. Also the children's play park at Atlantis Leisure in Oban, is a must for young kids. We would highly recommend a stay here.
