Guests say
High Ranachan is a well-equipped, spacious cottage in a lovely, remote location with beautiful views, ideal for exploring Campbeltown and the Kintyre Peninsula. Guests appreciate the generous welcome hamper, the well-appointed kitchen, and the games room, though some noted the need for TLC and additional cleaning.
The property generally meets expectations for cleanliness, but some guests noted areas that require more attention, particularly in cupboards and the provision of more robust doormats for muddy days.
The cottage boasts a peaceful, secluded position with stunning views, appreciated by guests for its tranquility and proximity to Campbeltown, beaches, and nature spots.
The farmhouse offers comfortable beds and spacious rooms, though some guests found the beds hard and suggested additional mirrors and storage would enhance comfort.
Facilities are generally good, with a well-equipped kitchen and utility room, full SKY TV, and a games room, although there was disappointment regarding the absence of a previously advertised pool table.
Guests were delighted with the welcome hamper, indicating a thoughtful touch. However, it should be noted that such gifts, while appreciated, may vary and are not guaranteed for every stay.
