Arthur’s Seat gave us everything we wanted! Yes, the steps up are steep but adds to the charm of the cottage and rewarded with the most spectacular view when you reach the cottage. Perfect for 2 and great location. Cottage has everything you need for a comfortable home from home stay. Communication with the owners was easy and friendly. We fell in love with the area and the added bonus of how friendly the people are. Looking to return later in the year and eventually move permanently! We’re looking to move to Kintyre but South Cowal has completely won us over. Turns out my mother went to school in Dunoon which I never knew! Clearly A SIGN! Highly recommend ❤️

We both loved this little cottage with grand views over the Firth of Clyde, worth the climb up the steep stone steps! We managed them and we are in our late 70's though fairly fit. The cottage was cosy, clean and comfortable and the support we had from the owners was excellent. It is well placed for visits around the lovely Cowal peninsula. There is a well stocked shop and two hotels serving food within walking distance. We would go back there anytime.
Lovely anniversary break

Had a wonderful stay at Arthur’s Seat Cottage in Innellan for our recent 21st Anniversary break,
The property is simply stunning , nestled in the hill on the shore line road with amazing views of the Clyde from the beautiful garden terrace.
Very serene and peaceful in such tranquil setting, a great base to explore Dunoon and the Argyle Forrest with Benmore Gardens a short drive away.
Pucks Glen was another favourite like walking onto a film set of Lord of The Rings this enchanting mystical gorge deep in woods is an absolute must visit place, as was Inveraray with its castle and historic city 17th century jail.
Overall a fantastic break in a beautiful part of the world that is West coast Scotland.
So good we came back!

What can I say, this little gem was perfect. So much so that we rebooked a second week!
Clean, comfortable, lovely little home from home with views to die for.
The little treats were a nice touch, and the owners are only at the end of the phone if you have any problems.
Book now! You won't be disappointed!
What a gem! Dolphin watching from the patio!

We stayed for a week while working in Dunoon, and loved it so much we booked again for the following week.
Such a pretty, quaint little cottage set high up off the road. The stairs are definately worth the climb to relax on the patio, overlooking the water. We were lucky enough to see 10 dolphins swimming past one morning while sat with a coffee! Even if the weather is poor, you can still appreciate the view from all windows!

Booked 2 houses for a family weekend. My brother and his family stayed at Arthur's Seat. They said it was comfortable, cosy and welcoming. Good facilities, little welcome gifts, and the view from the patio was amazing! They had a fantastic stay.
A lovely, well equipped cottage with superb views.

A lovely, well equipped cottage with superb views.
The steps up to the property are fairly challenging, but we were warned of this by the owner before booking.
Definitely recommended.

Arthur's Seat on the edge of the loch near Dunoon is a lovely spot. There is an expansive view of the water from the main window and the sunny garden and you can watch the boats coming and going, including the odd cruise ship, and if you're lucky you might spot dolphins and seals. The 58 steps up to the property are not too bad. It's a good idea to pack a number of small bags for carrying up the steps rather than one large case.
The accommodation is comfortable and clean with lots of space in the living area. It is very peaceful and a great place to relax. The kitchen is compact and would benefit from a few more essential items such as tea pot, wooden spoon and colander. Being brand new, I expect new items are being thought of all the time. The crockery and glassware are of very high quality and plenty of them. It was lovely to be greeted with some edible treats as well. Much appreciated!
We also suggest getting the bathroom door seen to so that it shuts properly. This shouldn't be difficult to do and would make a big difference to the user experience and privacy!
Little cottage ideal for a couple.

Very clean, comfortable cottage. Lovely garden area with plenty of seating and fine views. Well equipped kitchen and large living room. Bedrooms are small, in keeping with the age of the cottage. WiFi good. Large TV but it has a fault - the picture is far too blue and cannot be corrected.
Plenty to do in the area. Excellent pub and small shop very close.
The steep steps are fine but can be slippery when wet. It would have been helpful to have somewhere to hang coats and keep wet shoes etc.
