The house is located in a great location and ideal for access to the whole area.
Customer services team sorted out our issues quickly and effectively and were very good.
The house is OK and well equipped but is definitely feeling its age. The pool room is a great facility but the roof leaks (it was a very wet week!) and the table and cues are battered.
Cleanliness score of 3 is due to the age of elements such as the showers, cookers, bed settee that are old, well used and in need of freshening up / replacing.

Wir hatten als Großfamilie mit 7 Personen eine großartige Unterkunft vorgefunden. Platz satt für die ganze Familie und jedes Schlafzimmer mit eigenem Bad. Großes Esszimmer mit wunderbarem Bergblick und der Billard-Tisch fand großen Anklang bei unserem Jüngsten. Direkter Zugang zum Flußufer hinter dem Haus. Die Lage ist als Ausgangspunkt für Ausflüge in die umliegenden Berge, nach Fort William oder Oban sehr zu empfehlen.
Wir haben in der einen Woche nicht alle Ziele geschafft und werden sicherlich nochmal wiederkommen !
Einziger Wermutstropfen war der Zustand von einigen Küchenschubladen, die durch intensive Nutzung schon etwas gelitten haben...

We don't normally provide a review, but in this case, we have made an exception.
We had originally booked Number 3, Quarry Cottage in Ballachulish, but were offered an "upgrade" at no extra cost, as the Ballachulish property became unavailable because of staff issues. The provided photos of the property are misleading and do not show the single track approach (in poor condition), or the tight parking area. The property itself is in poor condition, with jamming window frames, faulty kitchen joinery, poor kitchen appliances (except for, inexplicably, two full size refrigerators), and ventilation issues. The cottage interior had a musty smell associated with the washing machine and one of the shower cubicles had a bad leak into the bathroom. The "games room" is a joke with a miniature pool table in poor condition in place. One of the bedroom cupboards has a damaged sliding door, making access almost impossible. If we had known the true state of the place, we would have asked for a refund, or a better placement. We won't be staying at any of the Clachaig properties again.

Perfect location, such a beautiful area to stay with some amazing walks and hikes.
A little dated in the bathrooms and kitchen but the living area and beds were comfortable, the kitchen had all the equipment we required to make our daily meals and two large fridge freezers for food and alcohol. Spent time paddling in the river although I’d advise some shoes as riverbed is all stones.
The Co op is a good size and stocks a good range of food and drink in Ballachulish and just around the corner from there is a fabulous bakery that has fresh produce daily. There are a couple of local hotels that allow non resident swimming for a small fee. It is a twenty minute drive to Fort William where there are a couple of supermarkets and some very good eateries.

This is a large spacious property with plenty of room to relax in. There are plenty of local amenities nearby, and places to visit both near and far (not so far), and provides a tremendous base for a holiday in the Highlands.
The service provided by Clachaig Holidays is excellent, the boiler was not working in the property, and although a Sunday they were out promptly to try and fix it. They were also out most days at all hours to try and get it working correctly, but unfortuanately were unable to before we left. Would still recommend to anyone that wanted to stay.

Our first visit to Hawthorne. Perfect and spacious for our large group. The river location was amazing and we could have spent the week just in that area. Our grandson was spellbound with the grandeur of the surroundings. A long journey for us from Cornwall but the week was well worth it and our whole family group had a wonderful time.

Stayed a week with 7 others and had a really good time. All the rooms were spotless including the kitchen. The location is great as you have easy access to fort William, Oban and of course beautiful Glen Coe. Pool table is a big highlight for spending some time during the evenings.

We had all our family together in this wonderful cottage. The location is excellent with access to the river at the back and a large mossy field at the front. Loads of space for the children to run around and play. The cottage itself is extremely well designed with plenty of space, an extraordinary amount of drawers and cupboards, two huge fridges and freezers and of course the amazing pool table - idyllic.
We had such a memorable stay we'll be back!

Very enjoyable stay in Hawthorn cottage with family. Great location. Weather threw everything at us - heavy rain, clouds, snow, but came back to warm comfortable surroundings. Kitchen very functional though would have loved a dining table to be at the window looking out on the river. Great view! Water pressure in showers not great but bedrooms comfortable. Would definitely go back.

We stayed at Hawthorn Cottage for a week during some of the best weather I’ve seen up there while the rest of the UK was under thick snow. The house was warm, clean and tidy and the five men staying there all had their own space to sleep and avoid some of the noisier sleepers in the group. The kitchen was well equipped, the dining room spacious and the living room quiet and comfortable. The pool room is a little small but a short cue solved any issues when queuing near the wall. Overall a great place to stay and central to lots of walking; close to the Clachaig Inn; but far enough away from everyone else to have peace and quiet when you want it and to not cause the neighbours any disturbances. We are hoping to return next year.

We spent a week in this cottage and we were 2 families who stayed comfortably. The scenery and location of this cottage is amazing. We had some issues with the fridge as soon as we got there but within an hour it was solved by providing us with 2 others, thanks to William. Also given a lift from the Inn to the cottage because we couldn't walk it back by the so kind and generous general manager amazing lady. The receptionist are so kind and understanding as well. Nothing to complain about and definitely be back.

Brilliant holiday at Hawthorn Cottage. Accommodation is very spacious, well maintained and clean. Staff at the Clachaig are very friendly and helpful. Cottage is in a brilliant location, convenient for Glencoe village, Ballachulish and Fort William. The property is nestled on the banks of the river Coe with very easy access. There are spectacular views of the surrounding mountains and hills. Had the privilege of staying at the other properties on the site (Holly Tree and Cherry) in previous years.Those occasions were just as enjoyable as this trip for the same reasons.

Large, well equipped, pleasant accommodation in a lovely setting by the river, 5minutes from village centre. Good furniture, well laid out, and very comfortable beds.
Lots of good quality storage in kitchen (for food etc) and bedrooms (better than anywhere we've stayed).
Helpful staff up at the Inn (very busy, but came quickly when part of food order was missing and tumble drier stopped working). Initial food order was nice to have & saved a trip to the shop.
Nice patio area at back overlooking river (when midges allow!)

Just a few small niggles to prevent it being a real rave review.

Double bedroom window was damaged and didn't open properly - so didn't use the room as we'd planned (Only 3 of us) - didn't want to have no ventilation)
Shower in 3rd bedroom was a bit dribbly so we used the one in the double room which was excellent.
Couple of white goods instruction leaflets missing, which gave us some working out how to use them. Ditto, the TV and sat box set up had no instructions, and wasn't set up - worked it out but might baffle some.
Filter in tumble drier hadn't been cleaned for ages - (really a renters job) - fortunately my wife loves defurring them!

All in all a very good place, where we'd happily stay again, with just a few minor niggles, without which it could have been even better.

We had a fantastic stay in the cottage. It was large, clean and comfy. Location was brilliant and we enjoyed cycling and walking from the cottage every day. Weather was glorious so we also went in the river at the back of house- very peaceful! There were only 4 of us as some family members weren’t able to come, but enjoyed the use of everyone having own bathroom. If there were a large amount of people, there wouldn’t be enough bowls. Was a real bonus having dishwasher, washing machine AND dryer. A real home from home. The 3 mile walk down to the Clachaig was beautiful down the old Road, but be warned- don’t follow the river Coe path all the way to end where marked on OSMaps as it is now fenced off at this point so we had a quick scramble over a barbed wire fence up the road from hostels to get out onto the road Would definitely recommend all the routes round the Lochsn and a trip up the Nevis range Gondolas is breathtaking! One of my all time favourite holidays- we will definitely return to the cottage and recommend to all our family and friends. The pool table was the icing on the cake

Ample space for the family with fantastic views from every direction. Location is good for walking and not far by car to local amenities. The pool table is a nice touch and it kept the kids entertained all week. The property also provided many of the basics that you need such as dishwasher and washing machine tablets, toilet roll and cooking oil. The property itself is a bit tired and we couldn't work out a few things like getting one of the ovens to work and hot water to the kitchen sink and bath but we worked round it and never got round to asking for help. Overall a lovely base for visiting the beautiful sights of the highlands.

We booked Hawthorn and Cherry Tree for 12 people. Great location.
Good cottages with good facilities. The layout of Hawthorn is a bit quirky, you need to check the bedroom configuration as two bedrooms are family rooms.
Really good service from the Claichaig, in terms of ease of booking and any queries.

Lovely, roomy spot in immaculate condition. Location not as good as the place we had last year, which looked straight down the loch to the sunset, but still a pleasant riverside setting, much appreciated by the kids.
Only quibble - no tips on the pool cues. Never expected to write that about a holiday cottage.

Great cottage. Great customer service and the location of it was absolutely perfect. There is lots to do in the local area and it’s not far from Fort William where there are even more activities to keep you busy.

We spent a lot of time at the lake which was in our back yard! We had to cross it of course. Everywhere you look around the views we spectacular. The decking at the back looked pretty old so maybe give it a nice pressure wash and the chairs and table out of the deck need to be upgraded.

The rooms of the cottage are nice a spacious enough. The cottage was very well stocked too. Plenty of parking space at the front. The bathrooms were nice a clean as well. Maybe the the pressure on the showers can be increased some more. It was only trickling down at points when all three showers were being used.

Overall verdict is I would like to come back here every year. I would like to recommend it to others but I also don’t want it to be unavailable when I try to book it

Food at the Clachaig Inn was amazing as always and lots of great wee shops and cafes etc within walking distance. Our second time at these cottages and I'm sure we will be back again!

Hawthorn Cottage is a fantastic, spacious house in an absolutely stunning location. With a quirky layout and sleeping up to 10 people, our family of 5 enjoyed an amazing holiday in Glencoe. Hawthorn Cottage has everything you would need for your stay, with lots of space, indoors and outdoors. Looking out onto the River Coe and mountains beyond, I could have stayed on the back deck for the entire week! The house is in a really peaceful spot, but within a short walk of the village and its shop and cafe or the Clachaig Inn (wonderful food!) There are also many hillwalking and mountain climbing opportunities nearby. We'll definitely be back!

Spent one week at the Hawthorn Cottage an absolutely loved it, the shallow river running by the back garden is stunning and great for a wee recovery dip in cold running water.
Very peaceful and the views from dining are and bedrooms are amazing.
The house has everything you need and would most deo stay there again :-)

btw, the location and value for money are 5plus

The property is tucked away in beautiful Glencoe (which made it a bit tricky to find!) making it a perfect family house for those wanting a bit of peace and quiet. The village is only a 5 min walk away along the private road which has cafes, pub & a little supermarket. The house has lovely grounds and we enjoyed sitting out the back/ paddling in the stream in the September sunshine. It was spotlessly clean when we arrived and we were grateful for the tea/ coffee supplies. The rooms are big, airy and very comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped and served us well as we ate in a lot. There is lots to do locally (forest walks, paddle boarding on the Loch (would definitely recommend that!), the Visitors Centre) and it’s well placed for trips further afield. The phone & WiFi signal were quite good considering so it’s easy enough to do a bit of online research. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Hawthorn Lodge and would definitely recommend it.

The cottage is in a wonderful location.. There was plenty of space for everyone. It provided an ideal base for walking in Glencoe and trips to Fort William and Ardnamurchan. It was within walking distance of the Clachaig where we enjoyed the October beer festival and the atmosphere.

I would reccomment this cottage to anyone wanting to visit Glenco. It is such a beautiful place and the views from the cottage are amazing. Its not far from various walks around the area to see the studding views the area has. The cottage was well equipped and very comfortable, a good size for the larger family. Will be back again in the future.

This is the 3rd year in a row that we have booked accommodation in Riverside Cottages.

The location is fantastic, the cottages are lovely; well finished, comfortable, clean and well equipped.

The staff of Clahaig Holidays have also been friendly and welcoming (in particular Anne Marie, Jessie and Jason).

I hope to be back at Riverside next year.
Well worth the money.!



Highly recommended

Hawthorn cottage is a fantastic place to stay for larger family groups. The facilities and space are great. We have used the riverside cottages several times before and they are in a perfect location and ideally suited for an active holiday.
Only criticism is that the housekeeping had missed some things such as Dusting and the tumble diet which was so packed with fluff that the whole thing needed sorting out including the filter.
Also not sure but think there used to be soap available. A few knobs falling off kitchen cupboards too.
But overall it’s a fantastic place with homely touches, lovely pictures on wall and I would not hesitate to use again.
Thanks Clachaig for a great holiday base.



Excellent stay

A lovely cottage, nicely furnished with a well equipped kitchen. There were 9 of us in our party and there was plenty of room for us all. Beautiful setting, very quiet. We hope to return to Glencoe soon and will look to stay here again.

The house is very comfortable. There are little things, which doesnt work. Please look for the toaster and the showers.



Perfect for a group holiday in a great location.

I booked this on a recommendation from a family member, and it did not disappoint. The cottage was warm and well equipped, and there was plenty of space for my party of 6 adults to eat and relax.Also good spaces to store our walking gear.
The only downside is the need for a warning about the decking outside which can become very slippery when wet (one of our party sustained knee damage in a fall).
Otherwise, a fantastic holiday in a beautiful setting.



Good base for exploring local area and mountains

Perfect house in a perfect location, what's more to say, except the staff are attentive, polite and everything is hassle free. I would highly recommend the property.

This is a lovely, spacious cottage, however ,there are snags.
There are no instructions for operating the tv or dishwasher .There are excellent instructions for the cooker.
We were disappointed as to the number of chipped or broken items found in the kitchen and polo mints and other items found in the main bedroom.
The promotion photo shows a ramp to the cottage, however ,firstly this had not been opened before our arrival despite our prior notification it was needed. The thick gravel in the car park makes access to the ramp well nigh impossible for anyone who is mobility impaired.
Despite the spaciousness of the cottage, none of the bathrooms could accommodate a wheelchair or rolater, so overall, the cottage is not as access friendly as initial appearances suggest.
Enquiries were dealt with very promptly indeed.

Glad you like the cottage. A huge amount of effort went into refurbishing it this spring. Housekeeping oversight noted and will also be looking carefully at the crockery etc as happy to replace anything which has been damaged. As regards the access, Hawthorn does not offer any increased mobility access and for that reason we don't promote it. Yes, there is an access ramp and the barrier at the top simply lifts out should it be needed. However, there is no increased mobility access inside due to the older nature of the building. Sorry.

Fantastic Cottage

Look forward to welcoming you back for another visit. Hawthorn Cottage will be getting a full makeover as of next week, so you'll find a few changes next time you come.
