“Quiet scottish cottage in beautiful part of Scotland”

We stayed at Hazelbank in September. The weather was mostly kind. We did not stray far, walks in this lovely friendly place, meal at the hotel, picnic after turning right at the cottage door, up a slight hill, views to keep you looking for hours.

We stayed at Hazelbank in September. The weather was mostly kind. We did not stray far, walks in this lovely friendly place, meal at the hotel, picnic after turning right at the cottage door, up a slight hill, views to keep you looking for hours. Also across to Tobermory the town copeing well with the situation we have all found ourselves in. The cottage had everything we needed. The only minus comment is regarding the king size bed in the bedroom. Yes it is very comfortable and the view from the bed is lovely. However, its very difficult to get in to. On one side is a small table with a lamp. On the other side nothing.....difficult if you want to sit up in bed with a morning cuppa. My slipper size 7 just fitted between the bed and the wall, my side had the table on. The other side no room at all to get out of bed...that was our experience. Take a torch to bed with you because if the bathroom calls you will need it to go down to the bottom of the bed to get out, or awake your partner to put the lamp on. We are not as young as we were, but our thoughts are a double bed of the same lovely quality instead of a king size would be more suitable.

“Perfect getaway cottage within a picturesque setting”

We have recently returned from a fantastic break at the Hazelbank Byre. This cosy and snug cottage is tucked away in Kilchoan village with superb views looking over to the Sound of Mull and beyond. It had all the facilities you would expect and more, including a super comfy kingsize bed. The cottage also had a patio area to the front which was great for sitting out to take in the stunning views. Both Susan and Jim were very welcoming on arrival and had great knowledge of the local area. They were always on hand to provide recommendations and helpful tips which helped us to make the most of our stay. The short ferry crossing from the village over to Mull also made this an ideal base for exploring further afield. The white sands of Sanna Bay are well worth a visit as well as the Ardnumuchan lighthouse (the most westerly point of the UK mainland). We would recommend Hazelbank Byre to anyone wishing to get away from it all to explore this very picturesque part of the world.

The owners met us on arrival and were very friendly and welcoming. The fresh eggs for breakfast were wonderful too!

“The owners, Susan and Jim, couldn't have been kinder.”

The Byre was cosy and the weather was lovely. Then there's the view which was beyond stunning! Visitors should, wherever possible, stock up for the duration of their stay in Fort William. The journey onward is demanding at 'advanced driver' level... But well worth doing!

“FANTASTIC COTTAGE”

From moment we arrived till the moment we left was one of the best holidays by far. Hazelbank Byre was so clean, comfortable and cosy a real home from home. Hosts Jim and Susan have a little gem here and with them both being so friendly and helpful there is not one fault with this place to stay, Plenty of walks and places to visit with a lot of history to explore. Added bonus of catching a ferry over to Tobernory, well worth a visit and a stay at this fabulous cottage.

“A beautiful retreat in a gorgeous place”

We were lucky enough to spend a week here at the end of July and the beginning of August. The views from the cottage are stunning and the whole area is wild and magical, the perfect place to get away from the rush of modern life and relax. Sue and Jim were perfect hosts, really friendly with fabulous local knowledge, actually all of the people in this part of the world are so friendly and helpful. The Byre was a fabulous base for exploring the peninsula, everything that we required was there and the bed was huge and so comfortable. We slept so well each night and woke up refreshed to do some more exploring. A fantastic holiday, we really did feel totally refreshed.

“Impossible to fault”

From the warm greetings by our hosts, through the spectacular views we woke to each morning, Hazelbank Byre proved to be exceptional. Sqeaky clean and well provisioned with utensils and basic seasonings, this became a haven of a base for our holiday. We took two medium size dogs and they loved it as much as we did! Along with a very welcoming bottle of wine when we arrived, Mollie and Willow also had there own treats waiting for them. Our hosts couldn't have been more helpful or friendly, although one minor criticism is that I was not stopped from entering the heavy section in the local Highland Games when, after half a bottle of Prosecco, I thought it was a good idea! Luckily we were able to retire to the comfiest bed I've ever slept in. We will definitely be booking again! I cannot recommend highly enough.

“Cosy wee retreat”

Great location if you are looking to chill out for a week or 2 or take in the stunning views with a few of the many well travelled walking routes near to the location.The owners Jim and Susanare without doubt the best hosts we have ever encounterd very helpful to any requests you needas this is our second year there they treated us like long lost friends very nice welcome.The big double bed is very,very comfy especially after being out all day walking or travelling although the village is small the people are very friendly and there is nearly always something going on,there is a new cafe the puffin which is quite reasonable

“Great way to get away from it all!”

Just back from a week staying at Hazelbank Byre and loved every minute of it. The cottage has everything you need - it even has a telescope set up in the front window for wildlife spotting!! The bed is the most comfortable I have ever slept in! The owners, Jim and Susan, couldn't have been more welcoming and helpful. There is wildlife everywhere! On my last day I sat in the sunshine at the front door and was treated to a Sea Eagle flying overhead!!! The location is great for exploring the surrounding area. I particularly enjoyed my trips (from the local pier)to Tobermory on the local Mull ferry and to Staffa and the Isle of Lunga (it's amazing how close the puffins and other birds will let you come). Hamish, my dog, also loved it - so much so he didn't want to come home with me! All in all enjoyed it so much I booked for the same time next year. Can't wait to go back!

“A perfect wee gem!”

Kilchoan is the perfect place for a totally relaxing holiday and Hazelbank Byre the perfect place to be based during your visit. You'll find it hard to better the wee cottage, the spectacular views and the perfect hosts. Susan and Jim made us feel very welcome and comfortable in their great cottage, willing to share their knowledge and give you the space to relax. A complimentary bottle of wine was an unexpected nice welcoming touch! Highlights included visits to the famous Ardnamurchan Lighthouse, Sanna Bay sands, Tobermory on the Isle of Mull by local ferry, Adrnamurchan Distillery (thanks Ricky), but taking the time relax and soak in the beauty was the main thing. 100% recommended, we'll be back!

“Great wee find”

What a beautiful place, the Byre is in a stunning location you feel relaxed as soon as you get out of the car. A small property but very well equipped, other than a non stick frying pan we wanted for nothing in there. Susan & Jim are wonderful people and extremely helpful even leaving us a bottle of bubbly and dog biscuits for our boy who was most welcome even in their garden. Lovely walks for miles around but be careful on the main roads some vehicles driven too fast. So a massive thank you to two lovely people, a great holiday let.

About the location

KILCHOAN

Tobermory 7 miles (via ferry).

The pretty village of Kilchoan is the most westerly village in mainland Britain, situated on the stunning Ardnamurchan Peninsula and surrounded by magnificent mountains and breathtaking coastal views. The area close to Kilchoan offers a choice of quiet sandy beaches and an abundance of wildlife with eagles regularly spotted overhead. Until 1900 the village was only accessible by sea, but now access is via a single track road that leads through some of the most beautiful scenery in Scotland. The village has good local services including a shop, pub, restaurant and community centre. From Mingary Pier there is a regular ferry service across the Sound of Mull to Tobermory which gives the opportunity to explore the islands of Mull and Iona. There are wildlife excursions on land and sea and the new Ardnamurchan Distillery and Natural History Centre are added attractions. A short drive away is Ardnamurchan Point complete with its own lighthouse and visitor centre which is well worth a visit, or perhaps you simply want to sit on the glorious Sanna Beach and enjoy the views across the clear blue sea to the islands of Muck, Eigg and Rum?
