"A perfect spot , very peaceful and picturesque."
I loved sitting out on the balcony just relaxing ,I listened to the owls ,cuckoo,and oyster catchers , watched the swallows , visits from robins and chaffinch . Also fabulous having your own little beach , gets the sun all day , sun disappears behind the property though , so you don’t see the sun setting.
Ideal for a couple . Or small family .
Lounge very spacious, we did not feel the need to use their log burner, but I could imagine it would be very cosy in the winter .
We were there with our daughter and son in law and grandchildren.
Second bedroom is very small with very little room to move around .
Daughter had main en-suite room said she could not bath the children properly as the plug for the bath did not hold the water in .
We had no Internet/ Wi-Fi the whole time we were there .This was reported at the start of the holiday but issue was never resolved .
The kitchen is very well equipped, but all cupboards are full , we could not find an empty one to actually store our food in .
Sent a few enquiries via text which were answered promptly.
The property could do with some maintenance. There is a slat of wood missing from the balustrade along the decking taking you to the steps down to the beach area .
Also a lot of clearing up needs to be done of “washed up debris” after recent stormy weather at the beach area .
All in all enjoyed our stay , would return again but only with partner , due to lack of space with bedrooms.

"Stunningly beautiful location and accommodation."
Fully equipped with all your everyday needs. No hidden extras for using logs etc. Located right on the pier with mountain and loch views. We would highly recommend to friends and family. The host could not be more amenable. Thank you so much for a great week, Frank, Sunny & Mia

"Had a lovely week at Pier North this July."
The weather wasn't great but was still a great place to retreat to when the rain got too much! The views are wonderful and you really could sit for hours waiting for those elusive otters, and enjoying the quiet and the wildlife. A really comfortable house with lots of creature comforts and considered decor and facilities. Would love to visit again, thank you.
Hi Adrienne, thanks for your wonderful feedback. Sadly we can't influence otter activity or the weather but so pleased you enjoyed your stay and we'd love to welcome you back.
Enjoy the rest of the summer.

"Great cottage with close by walks and easy cycling."
The water was great being close by for paddle boarding too.
Only thing I’d say was it’s a long way from Oban! But nothing u can do about it.
The cottage was well stocked with all the kitchen items ud need. There was delicious fresh bread and milk on our arrival. No complaints whatsoever!!
Loved it!

Great attention to detail from the owners, everything catered for the guest.
It's a 20 out of 10 for Pier North. Being a Sykes Cottages Owner, we know how hard it to get things right every time.
Keep up the good work, we will be back

"The accommodation is great and we loved the upstairs area in particular."
It has everything you could ever want and the coffee machine with pods was an added bonus! The views are stunning and we enjoyed the wee beach in front of the property. The only thing we felt could be improved was the width of the double beds as they were narrower than usual. Maybe see you next year! Thank you for a memorable holiday!
Dear Fiona, thank you very much for your comments. We are so please that you enjoyed your stay. Thank you also for your feedback. We hope to have you back soon. Kind Regards,

"Potable tap water was an issue and a surprise on arrival, but well managed with a supply of bottled water."
No dishwasher tabs on arrival but provided next day.
The full compliment of appliances and gadgets was superb.
General observation ; the large sink in the toilets left very little space for toiletries and lotions, no wall charging point for electric toothbrush.
Thanks for your note and great feedback. On the charging points for the electric toothbrush these are inside the illuminated mirrors (top right corner of each).
I would say they aren't the most obvious when you open the doors of the mirrors but the feedback is noted and and we will add a note into our welcome pack to help guests locate more easily in the future.
Glad the rest was fine.
Best Regards
