Cottage holiday rentals in Lismore

A great getaway with loads to do close by for whatever mood you're in - great towns and cities like Calendar and Stirling less than half an hour away, equally beautiful countryside and multiple waterfalls, lochs and walks to choose from on the doorstep. Our toddler loved the on site swimming pool and the grown ups enjoyed the peaceful views from the hot tub too! Rosie was so friendly and accommodating.

Very true to the listing the cottage is charming, tastefully decorated and homely. The entire cottage is modern and new and the kitchen is spacious and very well equipped with everything you would need. Bathrooms are modern, bright and good rainfall showers. Spacious bedrooms with fresh crisp linen and towels. Hot tub is very good but agree with previous reviews that it definitely needs a few hours to reach the perfect temperature. Nice decking area off the kitchen with outdoor couches but weather was a little inclement which in turn brought out the dreaded midgies!! Huge garden which was safe for our dog to run around with easy access to the stream at bottom of the garden! The cottage is located off the beaten track and is quite remote but definitely ideal if you are after total peace and quiet. Not disappointed and would recommend!!

This garden cottage was straight out of a romantic fairytale! The gorgeous garden surrounding the cottage and the view of the water and misty rolling hills framed perfectly by a stone wall and ivy were just breathtaking (especially while sitting in the wood fire heated hot tub). The cottage itself was incredibly cozy. We had nearly gotten stranded on Islay with car issues and we weren’t even sure we’d get to enjoy this stop on our holiday. By the time we arrived, we were completely exhausted from the chaos of the previous 24 hours so this relaxing and welcoming space was exactly what we needed to decompress. ☺️ The cottage was well equipped and very clean! We had everything we needed and then some. Caroline was an exceptional host. She was remarkably responsive and lovely to interact with both prior to our stay (when we weren’t sure we’d be able to make it) and during our stay! Anyone with the opportunity to stay here, should absolutely do it! Thank you for everything, Caroline!!

This was our 2nd stay at March Cottage. The addition of the log burner in the front room and bedroom is great. We will definitely return for a 3rd visit.

We had a lovely stay with our friends. Saw 3 Pine Martins run across the deck, which was exciting. The walk to the Loch is gorgeous. We came in our vintage cars and were pleased to have private parking for both. Thank you for a lovely stay in a beautiful part of Scotland, slept so well , appreciated the quality bedding and how clean the cottage was. we will return at some point.

Great location with fantastic views. The hot tub was easy to use and very nice after a long day of hiking. Beds were comfortable. The hosts were very friendly and accommodating.

We couldn’t have picked a better place to finish our week exploring Islay and Jura. The cottage is an absolute dream. A mixture of back to basics and quality amenities. Located a 10 minute drive from Craighouse but also with great walks straight from the door. The paps right on your doorstep gave us the most magical sunset sight. Rain or sun whatever the weather Jura wears it well. And Mrs Leonard’s cottage is the perfect place to come back to and either warm up in front of the fire or sip a wine or a touch of the hard stuff in the garden. I hope we will be back

Fab time. Lovely spotless cottage, comfy beds very private. Only issue there was only 3 wine glasses and there was 4 of us. So someone had to have a gin glass. But think they were happy about it. Thank you to our host, plenty of communication all questions answered. Would look to stay again should we return to Oban. Thank you

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home. The house was spacious, comfortable, and thoughtfully equipped – we especially loved the generous kitchen and light-filled rooms. The garden was a real highlight – peaceful, beautifully maintained, and perfect for relaxing after a day out exploring. The location was ideal for day trips – we easily visited Oban, Appin, Glencoe, and Fort William, all stunning parts of Scotland. The host was incredibly helpful and responsive throughout our stay, which made everything smooth and stress-free. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would absolutely return. A fantastic Airbnb in a fantastic spot – highly recommended!

Hi Anna , we have had a great time at your hide away cosy cottage whilst also going out and exploring what the area near and afar has to offer. We travelled from near Oban for our first week when we went to the Isle of Mull and then this week we did make time to visit the Isle of Skye which was spectacular. We live in mid Wales so use to the unpredictable weather but on the whole it’s been good to us . Great place to base ourselves from . The wildlife in the garden have been great to see as well and the dogs have loved it . Thank you .

Tony and Mairi are delightful hosts. Their place is better than the photos and the bed is divine! Tony was extremely generous to not only recommend a fabulous restaurant but made the booking on our behalf. We really enjoyed our stay and it's a perfect base to explore the Glencoe area. Cannot wait to return.

Fiona is a super hote, she is super kind and reactive, her dogs are super cute, she gave us a lot of informations about the area. The cottage is super cozy. Thanks again for letting us stay !

The Schoolhouse Cottage in Onich was a wonderful place to stay during our visit to the Highlands. Chris & Sarah were excellent hosts and the cottage itself was lovely and nicely equipped. They have taken great care with their welcome guides- extremely thorough! The cottage is in a beautiful area and the views are just stunning- we wish we could wake up to that view every day. We'd recommend this place to anyone wanting to explore Glencoe or the Highlands in general- it's in a great location to be a basecamp for exploring surrounding areas.

Die Unterkunft ist wirklich richtig schön. Wir haben uns gleich wie Zuhause gefühlt. Auch die Hunde, schließlich hatten beide Hunde eine Couch für sich :-). Im Haus gibt es alles, was man braucht und mehr. Für unser Wohl war mit Müsli, Broz, Kaffee, Milch und vielem Mehr gesorgt. Der Garten am Haus ist fantastisch, sehr weitläufig. Perfekt für eine kleine abendliche Gassirunde. Joanne ist eine tolle Gastgeberin. Wir hatten ein WLAN Problem und sie stand uns direkt zur Seite, um das Problem zu lösen (wir wollten online an einer Hochzeit teilhaben). Wenn ihr Ruhe und Entspannung sucht sowie einen tollen Kontakt mit den Gastgebenden, dann geht unbedingt zu Joanne.

The property was the best bnb we have stayed in. The kitchen has everything and it was the same throughout the house . The welcome pack was very generous and everything about our stay made us feel welcomed. The bathroom has a bath , shower and a small attachment for washing your hair all requirements met. The garden was private , peaceful and the views were just beautiful.When the weather wasn't too good we loved sitting on the sofa looking out on the Loch. Julie our host was very accepting with our cat and bent over backwards to accommodate our arrival and leaving times. Just up the road is a hotel called Loch Melfort which had amazing views. But to be fair you will just want to stay home get a bottle of wine and look at the fab view. What a fabulous place !

Pure serenity. Beautiful cottage in a beautiful part of the world. Couldn’t have asked for anything more. Even the weather was kind to us. The cottage had everything we needed for a very comfortable stay. Enough 4G signal on the phone for planning walks etc, but not enough to stream anything. Perfect! Kilbride Bay is a short drive away. Big secluded beach overlooking Arran. Park by the Bothy at Kilbride Farm, and it’s a 15 minute walk down to the sand. Make sure you stop by at the Bothy- best Bakewell tart we’ve ever tasted. Did a couple of walks within the Cowal Way. Kames to Portavadie, and Kames to as far north ip the coast as we could manage. Wild Argyll is worth a visit too just above Kames. All in all, a very relaxing break. Would be great to go back in winter and actual use the wood burner (was just too warm). Must be cosy as anything when the storms come in. Thanks Donald/ Ashley. It’s a gem.

We loved the Studio, had a great 3 day stay and hope to visit again. The Studio is large, airy, well laid out, and well equipped, and we particularly appreciated the very comfortable beds and furniture. It's set in a large garden with great views. Very quiet and peaceful. The kitchen has a wide range of everything you need when you're self catering, all very clean. For a retired couple like us, it was ideal - thank you Gordon and Maureen.

A lovely and peaceful accommodation, which was an annex to the main house. A warm welcome from the hosts on arrival, and the house was clean and well presented. In walking distance to a local shop, pub, and loch. We climbed Ben Nevis during our stay (1h15m drive) and visited Oban (20 min drive). Would definitely stay again.

a great place to stay, good location to explore fort William and western shores. Clickety Clack Cottage had everything you needed for a very comfortable stay. Fantastic views of loch eil, brooding Ben Nevis and Jacobite express as it passes by. Would highly recommend, Catriona very thoughtful and responsive host

What a wonderful place! The apartment is incredibly modern but cozy, well insulated and has the most amazing views. We'd come visit again in a heartbeat!

Comfortable well appointed accommodation in a beautiful area. Easy walk to visitors centre, viaduct and railway station. Host provided comprehensive instructions and recommendations. Enjoyed our stay and would recommend the Old Laundry.

We had a great weekend at Fiona’s cottage despite the rainy weather. The cottage is as described and would be absolutely delightful to sit in the beautiful garden enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The cottage is very private and well looked after. We loved lighting up the log fire in the evenings sipping a glass (or 2) of wine and watching the rain fall, absolutely magical. Fiona is a very responsive and helpful host, when we arrived at the cottage we realised there was no hot water, we contacted Fiona and whithin an hour (or less!) we had a technician come to us who solved the problem in a matter of minutes, we were very impressed by Fiona’s prompt action. We managed to bike down to Old Castle Lachlan and Kilmorie Chapel when the rain let up a bit, lovely scenery and an easy ride on our e-bikes. We dined at The Creggan’s Inn and spotted a red squirrel, 2 does and a fawn on the road down to/from The Oystercatcher, absolutely amazing! Thank you for having us Fiona, we will be back!

Fantastic place with a panoramic view of the Sound of Mull and the Island of Mull. Parking right outside, very quiet and peaceful. Beautiful accomodation, which was spotlessly clean. The kitchen had everything needed, the bathroom was lovely with the choice of a great shower or bath.

We had a wonderful time at Alison’s place and Alison was so lovely and informative, letting us know all the good walks and things to do nearby! We can’t wait to come back to this peaceful gem in the trossachs and loved how close Nether Glenny is to Aberfoyle if we did need anything! Fantastic stay and host, can’t recommend enough! :)
