A wonderful holiday
A beautiful holiday home right on Loch Holy! The house is newly renovated and leaves nothing to be desired. The surrounding area is beautiful, and there's so much to see and do! If we spend another holiday in this region, we'll definitely stay at Dunbheag Cottage in Strone!

Dunbheag cottage strone
My wife and i were here 3 years ago and loved it , now the cottage has been upgraded which was a bonus ,the cottage is absolutely beautiful ,the location is fabulous ,views beautiful,this place is ideal for a great relaxing break ,this time our friends came with us and the loved it , definitely booking for next year
We were traveling from the US for a Scotland adventure. This was a great place for our base as we took day trips. It was a nice location close to town and had a great view of the Loch. Access to the shore was a bonus. The deck was also nice to be able to hang outside in good weather. We appreciated the folders with local info and the instructions for the appliances. The kitchen had all needed items for us to be able to cook our dinners.

Dunbheag Cottage
It was wet and windy when we arrived and while the cottage had an immaculate appearing interior, is was disappointing that it was cold with no heating. When the heating had not come on by the following morning I used the number provided to contact the owner and left a message. I had no response by the evening and still no heating and left another message for the owner. It was the following morning when I got a response from the owner and at last got the heating going. The owner was very apologetic and I was given a refund of about 10% of the total fee for the inconvenience. Access to the beach was through the garden of a large house and the couple were friendly and said 'to go anywhere you liked'. The beach area was lovely and secluded.
