What our customers say about their holidays

  A lovely house in a stunning location.

  Most of the rooms are beautifully furnished but one bedroom and its ensuite bathroom are much smaller and in the "backstairs" part of the house, obviously last refitted in the 1970s - still nice, but not up to the standard of the other rooms. The house was generally very clean and well equipped but some of the glasses and crockery obviously hadn't been used for a long time and the vacuum cleaner bag was solidly full. Generally well equipped kitchen with few exceptions - no good frying pan, no teastrainer, no oven gloves - and the crockery, cutlery and glassware varied from old but good-quality to new and cheap. The information about the house and equipment was well-written and helpful but for a holiday home there was a surprising lack of information about local walks and attractions, so bring your own guide book and maps. But with those minor niggles this is an amazing place for a family get-together.

  The bungalows gave out as we drove along the shore of Glen Etive, with Ardchattan Priory heightening expectations as we neared our destination.

  Pulling off onto the drive through the trees, the ground flooded with bluebells, we emerged into the private idyll that is Ardchattan Manse. The location is truly wonderful: photographs do not capture the whole experience of being here. We ate every meal on the terrace looking over the huge lawn and the loch (few midges at this time of year, thankfully). The house itself is enjoyably unfussy and simple inside. We were the first guests, and one or two issues will need resolving – but please don’t spoil it by over-modernising! We were only 6 due to Covid restrictions: the house would struggle with 12.

  Lovely comfortable accommodation that suited our large group.

  The setting could not have been better and we loved the garden, the views and private access to the water. Our group had 2 small children and they loved the secure garden and we were able to keep an eye on them from the comfort of the outside seating. Perfect. The interior was comfortable and 'lived in' which we liked as we could relax and enjoy the house as we felt at home. The annex meant we had 2 family spaces with separate kitchens which suited our needs. In all we loved our time there and would definitely consider returning.

  We have just completed a 4 generation holiday at Ardchattan Manse .

  What a beautiful setting and a very comfortable,spacious house that everyone including a baby and small dog could relax in . Very well equipped with lots of thoughtful gestures like beach towels, plenty of logs and lots of kitchen extras. There was so much to do that we didn’t need to go out every day and the whole family enjoyed fishing , crabbing, paddle boarding and boating and there was plenty of space in the garden for the children to play. Nobody wanted to leave and the children have already asked can we come again.

  It is difficult to find any criticism towards Ardcharran Manse.

  Beautiful setting....Fantastic house and facilities....we were there as a family of 10 and everyone had enough space to do what they wished. We did play lots of family games which was great fun instead of watching tv. I would ask however that the games room floor could be sealed....the kids did come in covered in concrete dust after table tennis. However fantastic holiday and we do hope to return.
