We had a 10 day stay in the cottage and found it a lovely, peaceful place to hang out, especially in bad weather etc with the log burner and wonderful ever changing view of the tidal river and mountains further afield. The house has been uodated with bare floorboards in many oarts. The kitchen and bathroom are nice sizes and modern.
The only 2 niggles were that the garden isnt securely enclosed for dogs although there is a full boundary, short metal fence, our dog is more than capable of springing over it! Plus it has bits underneath that have holes. The other was that we found the beds didnt have the best supporting mattresses for us. Otherwise a very relaxed stay, thank you!
Lovely setting

Stayed here with two small dogs for a week. Lovely location and quiet. Cottage fully equipped. Unfortunately garden not secure for small dogs to roam freely as can get under the fence in places, so we had to tether ours.
Relaxing, peaceful break.

We had a lovely week at Nursery Cottage. The cottage is in an ideal location, lovely quiet spot yet very close to places to visit, and supermarkets just down the road in Dunoon for anything you might need. The weather was kind to us, so the view from the sitting room and garden was really special. Places for eating out just down the road too. Our dog had super time running around the enclosed garden, which was a big plus for us as we don't allow her off lead when we're out and about away from home.

The cottage was lovely and so easy to find .The view from the lounge window was amazing and watching the red squirrel feed there was even a tub with nuts to feed them. It had everything you need with lots of cooking utensils and plenty of hot water and lovely clean towels and bed linen. We had a fantastic holiday and was just down the road from Benmore Botanic Gardens which had some lovely walks and a lovely coffee shop.

Fabulous cottage has everything you need and is spotlessly clean. Views from the front lounge are stunning across the tidal river and to the mountains topped with snow, with red squirrel in the garden. Arrived from Glasgow via Loch Lomond to enjoy the scenic drive. Our favourite dog walks were Kilmun Arboretum, Puck’s Glen, Benmore Gardens and Ettrick Bay on the Isle of Bute.
Great location and host

Nursery Cottage is in a great location to explore Argyll and beyond, many walk around the local area some in forests some with stunning views.
The host Jo is very welcoming and ensures your stay is the best it can be.
Highly recommended
Lovely cottage with amazing views

Really enjoyed our stay. The cottage was clean and spacious with lots of modern facilities. The large window in the lounge really accentuated the view out onto the river and the mountains beyond. Some complimentary wine and shortbread didn’t do any harm either! Thoroughly recommended.
Fantastic

Perfect peaceful location with beautiful views. Comfortable, clean well equipped cottage. Just a couple of suggestions- a mirror in bedroom would be good and an outside washing line (there is an outside line that is covered with a lean to)
Lovely quiet cottage

A lovely situated cottage. We watched the small river in front of the cottage ebb and flow , with herons , ducks and swans. To the back of the cottage was a forest and we saw red squirrels and daily visits by yellow wagtails. The cottage was situated so you could get easy ferries to Bute and back to the outskirts of Glasgow on our return journey home. A good cottage experience.

Our stay at nursery cottage was perfect from beginning to end. We were in need of some much needed down time from a busy year and we could not think of a better location to achieve this. Our host, Jo, was an absolute pleasure do deal with and reflected the ambience of her lovely property, which had such a warm and homely feel to it. With stunning views over the Glen's and river, you can either sit in the living room with a brew and let the view change right infant of you at your convenience or get out there and explore it on foot for yourself. Nursery Cottages location was ideal for peace and tranquility, but offers a short drive to Dunoon where we found everything we needed. Can't recommend this place enough.

Nursery cottage was peaceful and tranquil with amazing view from lounge window . It was clean, had comfy beds and we were adequately catered for . A guest review book may have been nice , and a blind at the kitchen window and bathroom window , especially when it’s dark and lights need to be on would well not go a miss . But overall quite impressive , apart from bits missing from the cluedo board game The squirrel was a bonus as was the kind gesture of using the free passes for 2 people into Benmore gardens .

If your looking to get away from the hustle and bustle and want a relaxing holiday this is the place for you, the fantastic views from the property alone will make you feel relaxed. Plenty of fantastic walks and lochs all local , stayed with our 2 kids and 2 dogs , great family chilled holiday , great walks and some great paddle boarding spots including just across the road from the house. After all those walks great to come back to a nice warm cosy and relaxing house Would definitely recommend.

My husband has been working very hard, and we were both in need of a break. Nursery Cottage provided us with peace and tranquillity, not forgetting the amazing views-which were splendid from every angle. The cottage itself, was very well organised, and provided a safe and very clean place to escape to. Jo Barnes, was more then helpful, her information of where to go was most helpful. Her people skills were fantastic. She also provided me with enormous help, when I thought I had left a wallet behind in the cottage! I would totally recommend Nursery Cottage. It also catered well for our brown lab. Thank you so much. kind regards, Sally & Robert Gracie

We managed to get a late booking on this newly added property. From start til finish the service was fantastic. Owner Jo answered every question we had promptly. House location is perfect . 5/10 minutes walk to small local hotel where u can dine indoors or outdoors dogs welcome outdoors house over loojs end of river and views from garden are stunning our 2 small westies just had the best time in the very secure garden and inside the house has everything you could possible ask for. Very modern and just loved the kitchen stable door weather was kind and we spent most of our evenings in the garden. Will defibately return and wish Jo and family all the best
