About this cottage rental

This charming cottage is ideal for couples who love the outdoors, the perfect place to unwind, relax and explore this beautiful part of the Cowal Peninsula. Let the sounds of the river lull you to sleep.

Featuring an open plan living/dining room, a wood burning stove and comfortable sofa and armchair. A warm and cosy room to relax after a day's adventure to reflect on the beautiful scenery, sights and activities you have close by.

Whether enjoying an evening in the garden soaking up the views or relaxing by the wood burning fire, Glenbranter Cottage is an idyllic holiday cottage for all seasons. An ideal base to explore this spectacular region.

The forest and surrounding lochs are renowned for walking and cycling. The cottage is close to the scenic Allt Robuic gorge and waterfalls, and sits directly on the Cowal Way, a popular 57 mile trail between Inverglas and Portavadie.

Alison and Mark, owners/hosts are amazing. Nothing was too much for them. I don't drive. Both offered to drive to the village to the shops if I needed anything. Their beautiful cottage had everything you need. An added bonus was a log burner, coal also provided. Bottle of prossecco as a welcome gift. Lovely surprise. The scenery is outstanding.. its a one bedroom rustic modern cottage. Also has heating installed. Instructions folder for all appliences and maps of the area and surrounding areas. All local amenities are alsovin the folder with emergency numbers too. There is a river which runs through just across from the cottage with use of their huge garde. Stunning forest trail set in a beautiful valley. Cant thank them enough for their hospitality. I highly recommend their beautiful cottage. Their house is next door which made me feel comfortable as I ravel on my own. Another added bonus is they except up to 2 pets too. I had my new cat and a friends dog with me.. Thank you Alison and Mark for making my childhood dream Christmas break come true.v
