We needed some time together as a family to detox from Christmas travel and Greenlea was perfect, a beautiful, tranquil house (I always like to stay somewhere that is just a bit more stylish than my own home so i feel inspired- and this fit the bill!) , everything that we needed, including the little downstairs sitting area, and the huge window sills for those who needed quiet time with a book, and that view!!! Amazing! A real highlight was being able to watch my son paddleboard on the Loch whilst inside with a cup of tea! Lynda’s communication was clear and timely, and we really appreciated the message saying we didn’t need to check out at 9am as there were no guests expected that day. Thank you!
lovely cottage with great views

The property has been tastefully modernised with all modern conveniences. We had a very enjoyable holiday and found many varied and interesting places to visit from Inverary Castle to Benmore Gardens. The Hill House at Helensburgh is also worth the trip if you don't mind a 1 hour drive. Best of all was Puck's Glen which was an unexpected gem. Highly recommended.
Fantastic holiday home

We had a great week staying in this holiday house. The views are amazing over the loch, no matter what the weather was like, and the house was so nicely renovated and furnished.
Great location for visiting numerous places, usually within 25 mins drive.
Another great stay

This was our 2nd visit to Greenlea this year and it it was as enjoyable as the first one in March. We spent Christmas at Greenlea and enjoyed the peace and tranquillity. No chasing the last sprout. This was the first time we had ever gone back to the same holiday let twice in the same year. The place was immaculately clean and presented at the highest standard. We wanted for nothing except an extra week! Dave and Gill
Wonderful Scottish Holiday at Greenlea x

We had a fabulous stay at this house, the photos are great but the real thing is even better. We were blessed with sunshine in mid September but the amazing views would be great whatever the weather. The house is pristine with lovely interior design, really comfy beds, really good shower, really good wifi, really nice cookware and crockery. There is a little local shop just down the road but I would advise as we did bring some essentials with you so you don’t waste your holiday shopping for supplies. There are loads of lovely restaurants, fantastic walks and towns to visit we could have easily stayed another week there is so much to do. Thank you Lynda and Stewart

Greenlea is a fabulously clean, comfortable, warm, well appointed modern cottage with superb views from practically every window across Loch Fyne.
The best property we have ever stayed in.

The property has been renovated to an excellent standard and the decor and style of the accommodation was second to none. As with a previous property of these owners that we have stayed in, the cottage was spotlessly clean. Great location for easy access for places to eat, Creggans Inn [five minute walk], Loch Fyne Oyster Bar, Inver Restaurant - all serving great food ! We also had an amazing visit to Portavadie. Combined with the beautiful views and amazing sunsets and everything you need for your stay, we will definitely be back !
Stunning home and beautiful views

House was absolutely immaculate - like a show home. All brand new, beautifully decorated with stunning views over the water. There for Cowal Highland Gathering - took about 20 minutes to get to Dunoon and definitely worth the journey for this. Would definitely return.
Provide the basics please

Disappointed to have to buy staples you’d expect from a nice stay; toilet roll (only one provided), olive oil, salt and pepper, cleaning products for surfaces etc. at least let us know in advance such that we can buy it prior to arriving.
Otherwise a lovely stay, in a superb location.
Best, Duncan
A Fyne Holiday!

A lovely modernised property in a traditional setting, with stunning views over the constantly changing tides and atmosphere of beautiful Loch Fyne and direct access to the shore right across the road. Note: The road can be quite busy during the day as it’s used by locals, tourists and logging lorries, so there’s some noticeable noise at times, but this gradually diminishes as evening approaches and didn’t detract from our stay.
Re. Access to the Loch; We had no problem getting a paddle board down and into the water. Greenlea also has a large private garden perfect for relaxing when you’re not out & about - or enjoying the amazing view from the (upstairs) living room. The shoreline is great for good old fashioned Beachcombing and collecting interesting pebbles etc - our car did weigh a bit more than it should’ve on the way home!
There’s a local shop & cafe within easy walking distance and also a handy petrol station and the famous Creggans Inn is just along the road for meals. We visited Inveraray, Dunoon, Loch Eck and also roamed the local area including a ruined castle not far away, so Greenlea is a great base for exploring.
All in all an excellent stay in first class accommodation in a beautiful area of Scotland. Highly Recommended.
A lovely stay

This stay was in the middle of a little road trip and was a perfect base to explore the cowal peninsula. The lodge is very well equipped and furnished with fantastic views. It rained most days but the accommodation is so comfortable that we didn't mind. We saw a red squirrel just after our arrival and there were regular sightings of herons and cormorants. The walk to the Creggan is worth it for the food and the local beer. The only niggle was fairly firm pillows and slightly more noise from the road than we anticipated but this was easily compensated by the kind donation of half a dozen fresh eggs from the owner. All in all one of the best cottages that we have rented and we would thoroughly recommend.
Great holiday home!

Greenlea was a fantastic holiday house with an amazing view looking down Loch Fyne. The house has been refurbished and decorated in a modern contemporary style with an open plan living space - we enjoyed spending time there when the weather was bad. There is also a lovely garden to relax in when the weather is better. There is a bit of occasional road noise but you don't see the traffic as the lounge is on the first floor. The Creggans Inn is a short walk away which is handy for eating out or going for a drink.
Beautifully and stylishly decorated

Really enjoyed our stay here. Decor stylish. Views amazing. Loved the driftwood Xmas tree. Owners very accommodating and helpful re entry/exit times. We love to cook when we're away so a few more kitchen utensils would have been useful. Also mirrors in bedrooms would be good for drying/styling hair. However, these are very minor points- mainly for feedback to the owners.
A fabulous location overlooking Loch Fyne

A beautiful retreat on the shores of Loch Fyne. It was a special Christmas reunion and a return to Argyll where we had fond memories. Greenlea is newly refurbished to a very high standard, deceptively spacious and very comfortable with soaring views of lake, mountains and sky. We didn’t want to leave!
All round excellent

The location was stunning - looking down the loch westwards and towards the setting sun! It was also well placed for walks, ferries and tourist spots. it had a well equipped kitchen and comfortable beds. Although the weather was a bit rainy at times, it didn't affect our holiday there are so many alternatives to hand. would definitely visit again.

What an amazing cottage, very clean and so comfortable. We had a wonderful stay at this cottage. Really enjoyed the ever changing views of Loch Fyne from the wonderful window seat in the upstairs lounge Cottage was very well equipped with everything we needed for our stay and furnished to a very high spec. Very convenient for visiting Inverary, Dunoon and we even went to Isle of Bute for a day which was wonderful. Lots of great walks nearby also. Creggans Inn just a few minutes walk from the house, very convenient if you fancy a drink. Recommend Brambles in Inverary and Coylet Inn on Loch Eck for meals. Definitely recommend this beautiful cottage and hope to return again some time in the future.
Unbeatable views

We had the best time at Greenlea. The accommodation is spotless and very well equipped for all of your needs. We loved the window view of the loch. The kitchen has everything you need for cooking and there is a laundry room for washing, drying and ironing clothes. There is plenty of space in the property for a family with spacious bedrooms and living areas, family bathroom and ensuite. A two minute walk to the pub which has lovely views. We went swimming in the loch which is directly infront of the property. There are lots of local walks and a small shop and petrol station nearby. There is a lovely garden space for the kids to play or adults to relax and enjoy the sunset. The sun set views are breathtakingly beautiful. There is lots of wildlife to spot, we saw seals and lots of fish/crabs and birds. There are plenty of places to visit in the car too, Inverarry Castle, Jail and town with plenty of shops/cafes. Dunoon has a ferry if you want to travel over the Loch and has a Morrisons where we did our shop. We visited Loch Goilhead where we went paddle boarding. We took the kids to The Fyne Den play centre which they loved. The gruffalo walk and Argyll gardens is about 10 minutes away. We drove to Otterferry beach which is amazing for swimming and crabbing. We visited Loch Fyne restaurant which was amazing. If you want an action packed holiday or just a chilled holiday with the perfect loch views this is your place. The only down side was having to leave! Would highly recommend.
