Guest Reviews

• Kizhakkedath (9/5): It’s a wonderful place -
• Katie (10/5): - Lovely location, designed beautifully and very homely
• Jane (7/5): We did like our stay as we were visiting friends and if these few details are improved we would stay again - It was near our friends we were visiting and it was comfortable and clean There wasn’t enough storage to put our clothes in the twin room also the rug in the main lounge was pretty dangerous as moved easily and everyone was tripping over it . Also the grounds need a lot of work done not very inviting. We thought it would have been better for the cost of the weekend
• Marjolein (8/5): Prachtig huisje! - Het ziet er prachtig uit en alles is compleet en goed verzorgd. Het ligt aan een doorgaande weg, maar daar heb je niet veel last van.
• Gary (10/5): -
• Rosemary (10/5): - Absolutely lovely stay, everything you need was provided, a real Home from Home. Lot's to do around the area and has Absolutely stunning views
• Debbie (10/5): Perfect - Self catering Close to local shop Short drive into Dunoon, which has all amenities / good places to eat Jameswood Villa is the perfect base from which to explore. Lovely, comfortable accommodation….. home from home. Highly recommend. NA
• Orla (8/5): -
• Lucy (9/5): Lovely stay, despite the weather it was delicious to potter round Dunoon, hunt sea glass, visit lochs, and enjoy comfy c - We loved the interior decor, the comfy beds… and the amazing shower! Understanding owners, despite our puppies little accident. Excellent communication & help! So very grateful! No microwave.
• Sadie (10/5): An amazing place to stay, of high quality, great hosts, everything you need, great value for money. - The property was high class in every aspect. A high level interior design, whilst very comfortable and had everything we needed. Absolutely nothing
• Tez (10/5): - Peaceful, cosy, home from home and amazing beds Leaving
• Jill (10/5): - Everything No door mat !! That's it 😄
• Kiren (5/5): -
• Eccleston (10/5): Extremely good value for money. Beautiful property - Beautiful location, clean and very comfortable Nothing
• Phillips (9/5): - Confortable bed, well equipped kitchen, well designed, good access to the local area and clean. Had all three amenities for a comfortable stay. Projector det up was a little awkward and would benefit from being realigned
• ChungWai (9/5): -
• Isabelle (10/5): Villa stay - Liked how warm and cosy it was with everything you need. Nice welcoming touches. Unable to use the bath or shower due to my mobility issues. A wall rail and a not slip matt for the bath would be an advantage.
• Lorna (10/5): Superb accommodation, great location a perfect stay for our first family holiday! - The property was perfect for us! It was well equipped, lovely decor and great guidebook with lots of information. There were great cooking facilities and we loved the projector and hosts were also fabulous! We had a travel cot upon arrival and even a phone charger which came in handy as we forgot ours! Couldn’t fault anything. There were only a couple of things we thought could be improved. The lock on the door needed fixed and also an enclosed garden if possible only because we had a child and dog and property is on main road.
• Lesley (10/5): - Everything! Lovely property, fitted, equipped and designed to a high standard. Very comfortable and thoughtful extra touches, such as face cloth provision (not always provided). Loved the little framed drawings Not a criticism just a suggestion for consideration. There are a few features that are fitted quite high on walls. Thinking the shelving for crockery and bathroom mirror. As a shorter person they were quite a stretch to reach. Maybe a standing lamp in corner for softer lighting in front room. Thank you
• Nataliia (10/5): Feels like a home - This staying is absolutely wonderful and truly feels like a home. It was such a pleasure to return after long walks, make a cup of tea, and enjoy some evening reading by the window with that beautiful lake view. We felt so cosy and welcomed here, and we’ll definitely be coming back again.
• Brian (8/5): - Quiet and clean with everything you would hope for. Sandbank seems a bit of a rundown place.
• Mungo (10/5): We felt at home immediately in this beautiful apartment. Great access to the town and all the beautiful views and places - A beautiful Victorian property, done to a high standard with period features from light switches to the bathroom.Very comfortable beds and easy to use heating system. A sea view from the living room was nice too. Nothing
• Jamie (10/5): A lovingly restored villa full of charm and decorated to a high standard. - The property was easy to get to from the ferry terminal and the centre of Dunoon. The house and surrounding area guide books created by the host were a lovely touch and really helpful. The projector was a great addition.
• John (10/5): We highly recommend this apartment in beautiful Argyll - Everything ! Very comfortable, clean , warm apartment , great location, lovely decor in keeping with the house, good kitchen with extras supplied, comfortable beds …. and more. Claire was a warm and friendly, helpful host. Claire and Cal have created a unique ambiance - with everything cleverly thought out to make their guests enjoy their stay in every way! -
• Kirsty (10/5): Better than a home from home: it’s The Home You Wish You Had All The TIme. - It was all awesome. The style and decor of the apartment is cosy and clean. There is wildlife to be seen - even a deer in the back garden! And we took our dinner down to the shore to eat it at a picnic table after skimming stones in the loch. We hosted friends for dinner and went for a great walk up Puck’s Glen. All this and we only stayed for TWO NIGHTS!! How much more could we do if we stayed longer?! We loved it here. Thank you so much to our kind hosts! We should have stayed longer.
• Mohamadikbal (10/5): -
• Ben Murray (10/5): Peace and Serenity - It was a lovely stay in a beautiful location which my Mum loved. The hosts are a really nice couple who are very helpful if you need it. The house was clean and comfy and Sandbank is a great place to have a base for that part of Scotland. Thank you we loved it.🙂 There was nothing that we found a problem during our stay.
• grant (10/5): -
• Sylvie (9/5): Charmant petit endroit - L'appartement est très joliment décoré, la salle de vie spacieuse. La literie est très confortable, on y dort très bien. La voiture est indispensable pour accéder aux commerces et aux restaurants.
• Rob (10/5): Prachtig gerenoveerd pand met uitzicht op het loch - Prachtig pand en sfeervol ingericht. Alles wat je nodig hebt is er. Zelfs thee, peper en zout staan in de keuken. Mooie locatie met uitzicht op het loch als je aan de eettafel in de erker zit. Mooie verwilderde tuin met prachtige bloemen. Eigen oprit. Claire is leuke gastvrouw en zij heeft veel tips voor uitstapjes in de omgeving. Niets.
• Steve (10/5): Charming place to stay - Exceptional. Tastefully decorated and furnished, stunning location and views Nothing
• Koen (8/5): -
• Katherine (10/5): - Superb accommodation, would highly recommend.
• Janet (10/5): - Everything was beautiful, thoughtfully organised and thoroughly enjoyable place to spend time. Everything was just right!
• Richard (8/5): Dunoon - The restoration of the property is a job fully taken on with love, well done. Accomodation was comfortable, and we had everything that was needed. Thankyou.
• Christine (10/5): Relaxing short break with friends. - Easy to find, good access and parking. Lovely big rooms and everything provided for a great stay. Beds very comfortable and the toiletries provided were very welcome. Nothing.
• Stewart (10/5): charming apartment near the town centre and loch, perfect for a peaceful Dunoon escape. - To access the property, there was a small key box mounted on the side of the wall. Prior to our arrival, we received a message from the host that provided clear instructions on how to retrieve the key and enter the property. The entire process was straightforward and hassle-free.free. We had a truly wonderful stay at this beautiful apartment near Dunoon. Nestled in a quiet, picturesque area just a stone’s throw from both the town centre and the loch, the property offered the perfect balance of convenience and tranquillity. The apartment itself was full of charm, spacious, and exceptionally comfortable—ideal for a family of four and two dogs. From the moment we arrived, it was clear the hosts had gone the extra mile. Thoughtful touches like fresh coffee, soft towels, and a little welcome chocolate made us feel right at home. The apartment was incredibly well-equipped, with lovely extras that made our stay feel just that bit more special. The garden was a real highlight—lush, full of character, and the perfect place to relax with a morning coffee or unwind after a day of exploring. The area offered fantastic walking routes right on our doorstep, with breathtaking views throughout. Overall, the property was immaculate, the setting was peaceful and beautiful, and the hosts were genuinely outstanding. I can’t recommend this place highly enough to anyone looking for a relaxing break in the Dunoon area.
• Jem (10/5): It is beyond superb ❤️❤️ - Everything XXX
• Gayle (10/5): We had a perfect stay & would 100% love to stay again. - We loved everything, wonderful property with some nice touches, very comfortable beds & great location. The only suggestions i could make to improve the apartment would be a doormat inside the door & an anti slip mat to put in the bath when showering.
• Sinnott (7/5): Good - Great location. It was the fault of Booking.com that we didn't have the full details of how to access the property, and luckily this was dealt with quickly. The midges problem was also dealt with satisfactorily. I would have preferred a TV to the pull down projector screen, and the sound was poor. Also would have liked a microwave. We weren't planning on doing a lot of cooking but on the first night, we'd brought food to reheat after a long drive and couldn't work the oven.
• Phyl (10/5): Exceptional - Beautifully set out apartment. Lovely friendly people. Cannot recommend enough. Nothing...what's not to like!!
• Paul (10/5): Exceptional -
• Lmck (10/5): Perfect - The house is beautifully decorated. A lovely Victoiran home with a modern twist. The beds are very comfortable, the place is really clean and has a well equipped kitchen. The welcome pack is full of things to do and see. You definitely feel looked after staying. If we are ever back in Dunoon or nearby, we will definitely be back. My 7 and 10 year old think it's the 'coolest' house we have ever been in.
• Jacqui (10/5): Exceptional -
• Nicolas (10/5): A gem of a place! We absolutely loved the flat and the whole area - The property was wonderful. We loved everything about it. It was easy to find and the location was fabulous. The flat largely exceeded our expectations. Everything was beautiful and comfortable. It felt like home away from home. There is a really nice backyard with tables/chairs to enjoy breakfast or a glass of wine, or to play badmington or hide-and-seek. Parking in the driveway was very convenient. Very quite, especially the bedrooms (they face away from the street). You could just start hiking from the house. The whole area right on the border of Loch Lomond National Park is absolutely stunning. Many interesting hikes with gorgeous views over the sea, lochs, gorges, and mountains just a few minutes drive from the flat. Supermarkets, gas station, and restaurants are located within 5 min drive. Importantly, although we didn't meet in person, Claire was very friendly and efficient in her communication. She provided all the info we needed, was very responsive to our requests and accommodated them as much as she could. We loved the place so much that we contemplated staying an extra night (untill we realised we actually couldn't because of commitments at home). We highly recommend this gem of a place! We just loved everything!
• Cara (10/5): Exceptional - We had an incredible stay at Jameswood Villa! The accomodation was perfectly decorated, safe, comfortable, and calming. Great location for enjoying the surrounding trails and nature!
• Eduardo (10/5): Lovely break - Very clean, spacious and elegant. And super comfy. The communication with the host was excellent.
• Joana (9/5): Superb - Very nice appartment!
• Alina (10/5): Exceptional - A beautiful accommodation, a house restored with love and respect where we found all the modern amenities. The area is safe, quiet, with a nice place to sit outside, heating and hot water at your discretion. The host took care of us having all the information and things necessary for a pleasant stay. We recommend with all confidence -
• Selvanayagam (10/5): Excellent - The house, location and surroundings was excellent. Parking..you have to reverse park in a busy road. Otherwise it was good
• Avery (8/5): Very good - A pleasant stay. Lots of information was provided on activities to do, mostly walks - much appreciated. There was more available than we thought - we'll likely be back!
• James (10/5): Was a great break away for couple of days - Loved the villa...great story behind it...location was great... everything that we needed was available...any questions I had were answered right away...Will definitely use again... plenty of lovely walks...shop 5min walk along road... excellent Nothing
• Paolo (10/5): Exceptional - We loved everything about the house. Claire and Cal they did amazing job inside very nice taste, must have been such hard work to re-done all of this. We admire you very much. Hope we will manage to come back again and maybe have a coffee all togheter would be lovely. Again thank you very much for letting us stay. Paolo
• Richard (7/5): Good - No instructions of how to use cooker these are needed for someone that has cooked on a raeburn cooker for last 40yrs
• Lily (10/5): Exceptional -
• Florence (10/5): Exceptional -
• Michelle (10/5): Perfect stay for a family, surrounded by beautiful Scottish landscape, with great access to Dunoon - Very homely and all the amenities we needed. Nothing. Was a great apartment to stay in.
• Williams (9/5): Convenient, spacious, and warm - No safety mat in the bath.
• Aliis (10/5): Amazing place, so many places to discover nearby! - We have been to Scotland several times and seen different AirBnBs and hotels - and this place has been one of my favourites! So lovely place, loved alllll the details and very helpful guidebook that was left for us. They also have a projector for movie nighs, kayaks to borrow, beach towels etc. Beds were so comfortable and in the kitchen there was even a thermos to bring along to picnics. Can't really say anything :)
• Angela (10/5): Relaxing weekend away - Very comfortable, clean, tasefully decoratednothing
• Rosemary (9/5): Superb -
• Gillian (10/5): A wonderful, relaxing stay! - Beautifully restored old house. Lots of modern touches. Comfortable, clean and warm. Great location. Nothing
• Josephine (9/5): Superb -
• Bart (9/5): Great weekend break. - The location is ideally situated close to a few of Scotland wonder spots such as the local lochs, Puck's Glen and Ben Moor Botanical Garden. The house it self is also wonderful, with great facilities a wonderful garden as wel as s great story. We liked almost everything. What we did not like had nothing to do with the house it self, but it is quite close to the road, some would see it as a plus we rather had been a bit further from the road. Finally, the most local pub and restaurant were closed which wasn't a biggy as the house has an fine kitchen and there are restaurants a bit further afield.
• Karen (10/5): Exceptional -
• Saorsa (10/5): Beautiful accommodation in beautiful scotland. - Lovely property, comfortable furnishings and lots of little added extras which make staying there feel a bit 'home away from home' Leaving.
