Tirlaggan Úr

Everything we needed was there and it was a good location to just sit and look .

First time at this cottages and i must say it exceeded our expectations,Immaculatly clean smelt beautiful on entering, the owners alison & dave where fabulous nothing is too much for them,we didn't want to come home great views peaceful location,great little shop with everything you need,will definitely go back next year,10/10 goes to the cleaner of the cottage

We had a very comfortable stay in the well equipped and cosy cottage.

The beds are the best we ever had in Scotland!! I didn’t want to leave it in the Morning. The heating and bathroom facilities are modern and immaculate. On colder days the open fire supported our well-being. The owner welcomed us personally and provided us with hints for activities, so we could enjoy a very nice hike on the Island. The only thing to improve: despite the fully equipped kitchen we missed a bigger frying pan. Even for two people it was complicated to prepare a meal in the small one, and two pans are useful anyway. We definitely will return to Tirlaggan!

We had a fantastic 3 night stay at Tirlaggan Ur on Lismore.

The house has everything you could want to make your stay relaxing and comfortable. The deck/ balcony is wonderful for breakfasts and for a coffee watching the sun going down over the mountains. The bedrooms are spacious with plenty of room to store your clothes. The beds are very comfortable and we all had relaxing sleeps. The facilities are all modern and working. The owner was cheerful and very helpful and checked to make sure we had no problems. There is only one cafe on the island but they must have won the lottery to get such a talented chef. the food was superb. The burgers are amazing and the hunters chicken rivals anything I have had in a fancy city restaurant on the mainland. There is one shop on the island so if you like specific brands of groceries it night be best to stock up before you travel on the ferry. Overall this was a perfect base for a very relaxing and soothing break. Many thanks.

A lovely house in a wonderful spot!

Convenient, as walkable from the Oban ferry and to the shop and cafe/museum. Always something to see whether the animals in the fields or the changing light on the mountains, which are visible from the comfort of the armchair!

Cottage was lovely, location is great, I would use it again.

So calm , comfortable and relaxing .

.. bucolic setting.

This is a thoroughly modern property (with an enclosed garden that's great for dogs) in a great location.

We walked back and forth to the ferry terminal on a couple of occasions, to the village hall, the shop/post office and cafe (all of which we recommend). The property is centrally located on the island, which also means that the north (and the foot ferry to Port Appin that we'd also recommend) and south ends of the island are easily accessible by car. The house itself was comfortable, spacious and well equipped/very well cared for.

We really enjoyed our stay at Tirlaggan Ur.

The house is very well designed and equipped, and seemed much nicer than we had expected from the photos. The large living area is light and welcoming, and we loved eating our meals while looking out across the fields to the distant mountains. Our dog had fun chasing her ball in the large garden area, and we loved all the birdsong. The island is perfect for a quiet week exploring on foot…. And the cafe is not to be missed! Only slight niggle, I was a little chilly occasionally, wasn’t sure how to alter the heating, but I am a chilly mortal! Jean.

The house was perfectly presented with clear instructions in an amazing location with stunning views.

There is generous space for 4 people and ample wardrobes and cupboards for a longer stay, unusual in a holiday house. Although I am not a wheelchair user I am very aware of the problems that they encounter, they will have no such problems in this house, including access to the generous deck to enjoy the views and clean air. The house is in the centre of the island with easy access from the Oban car ferry and only a short walk to the island shop. Being a brand new house it is built to very high standard of insulation so will be warm and cozy in the cooler weather, and the house has been tastefully decorated and dressed. I am already looking to book a repeat visit later this year!

The exterior photographs do not do justice this gem of a cottage so don’t be put off.

The interior looks nearly new, tastefully furnished , well equipped (although wine glasses would be a useful addition!) and very comfortable. It is not overlooked by the other properties and has a large outside seating area. It is centrally located on Lismore with easy access to all parts of this beautiful island. We spent a very enjoyable week here and would certainly recommend it.

Tirlaggan Ur was excellent as was our entire week on Lismore.

As always there are a few buts. 1: Still a new property with leftovers of the build aong two sides of the house. Whilst not in one's face so to speak, the bits and pieces really should be cleared away, perhaps to the enclosed space beneath the deck 2: The glass panels around the deck edge are disconcertingly mobile. The sort of thing a discreet slot-over toprail would solve 3: We cook and take a pride in what we do. Lismore by its very nature probably encourages it anyway. A larger general purpose pan for skilleting would be helpful, as would at least one rigid wooden, synthetic or metal blade of decent size. Oh, and an anti-splatter cover. 4: Other than that, it really is a great place and we could very well book again at some point in the future
