Beautiful Cottage by the Bay, Isle of Islay

9.6 out of 10, Exceptional, (20)
"We had the perfect stay at the Old Salt House. Kim had taken care of everything we needed. The beds were super comfortable, the shower was fab, the deck gave us stunning views, the pub round the bay was just sublime, and the cottage was always a joy to return to; a cosy neuk after the Portnahaven winds. Portnahaven and Port Wymss are gorgeous island villages. They’re off the beaten track but with so much to see, do and learn. We had an amazing time at the Whisky Festival but also on the many...

"No contact from Homeaway regarding getting keys etc. Hours spent on the phone to various "customer service". Found out myself that it was managed by cottages. com. Logged in to their website to find all the information there. Probably spent too much money by booking through Homeaway rather than direct with Cottages. Com. Views were stunning, great location. Lovely gifts upon arrival (best banana cake ever) fresh flowers a lovely touch. Very clean. Missing a couple of things like a bbq and heat...

"A fantastic and homely little cottage! Wi-fi is terrible, which was a shame as we booked it based on internet access as we had work to do. It's also a long way from the A-roads with little to do right on your doorstep. Kilberry Inn is fantastic and the cottage itself is kept very nice and has everything you need."
