Beautiful property, well equipped and very comfortable. We had a wonderful family break. The hot tub was a real bonus especially loved by our grown up kids! Thanks to Claire for being such a lovely friendly host.
Karen
A beautiful cottage in a great location with everything we needed to enjoy a thoroughly relaxing holiday.
Annick
Very well equiped and clean property, ideal for 2 families. The hot tub is a bonus point for this house, especially in the cold Scottish summer weather. At the Farm situated nearby, you can buy wonderful scones and coffee for breakfast, or even take a fully english breakfast. We would recommend this property.
Alison
Cottage was lovely, loads of space for our extended family. Hot tub was a treat too, coffee at the shop next door was lovely and the animals were so cute. The kids all enjoyed. If being picky we felt the cottage could have been a bit more luxurious. But overall we enjoyed thank u

We had a really super long weekend break at Glenisla Escape. It was thoroughly enjoyed by our 3 generation party group. My elderly Mum loving the countryside aspect, visits from friendly chicks and the fantastic Peel Farm coffee shop and gift shop. The 'youngsters' headed for the loch side beach with picnics, loving the farm trail and befriending a ll the animals. Us middlies relaxed in the Jacuzzi and enjoyed the peace. Dining al fresco we were entertained by the show of house martins - bliss.

We had a lovely stay. The cottage had plenty of space for 9 people and a dog and was very comfortable and well-equipped. Claire was very helpful, even down to giving directions when my SatNav sent me to the wrong place. Would definitely recommend.

We would thoroughly recommend this property - light and spacious, well-equipped and at this time of year, the farm animals and the birds were absolutely adorable! Plenty to look at around the farm and numerous good walks and restaurants within easy reach by car as well as some close enough to walk to. Help is immediately on hand if anything is need ed and we are already looking to rebook!

We had a really lovely stay! The place itself was just fantastic - super clean and felt really luxurious. It was a little way to the nearest supermarket and pub but the farm shop and cafe were superb and it was lovely to be so close to them. Beautiful surrounding and plenty of walks to explore. Would definitely come and stay again!
