Arle Farmhouse

The property was everything we needed and was situated within perfect drive of some wonderful locations on the island. We also managed to sit on the shore line and witness otters and seals aswell as a pair of White Tailed Eagles viewed from the KITCHEN!!!!!

Nothing!!!!

What an incredible place to stay! The view is spectacular, the farmhouse so spacious, clean and nicely decorated. The bedrooms had plenty of room to hang clothes up as well as chests of draws, and the beds were soft and comfy. There is so much space downstairs, with a room to chill by the tv and a room to eat your dinner with a lovely window seat where I sat to look over the view and read a book, as well as a generous outdoor area and picnic bench from which to watch the swallows and sparrows. The kitchen is well equipped with saucepans, utensils, crockery, baking trays, a huge fridge freezer, a very effective oven, a microwave, chopping boards - everything you could possibly need. The shower was powerful and hot too. It was a perfect home away from home, and one I was very reluctant to leave!

Very nice cottage, lovely views, well equipped.

Beds a bit too soft

We'd thought the house looked a little bit basic from the photos, but it was far nicer than expected. The kitchen was modern and well equipped, and the rest of the rooms were simple but very comfortable. The location is ideal - only half an hour max from the ferry, and 10 minutes into Tobermory. We went to every corner of the island during our stay, and the longest drive was to Fionnhport for the ferry to Iona (just over an hour and a half). The views from the garden over the loch are stunning, and you can walk down the farm track to the sea in a few minutes - we didn't see otters there, but there were lots of birds and seals. The perfect cottage for our needs.
