Description from owner

Description

Sleepy Bear Cottage is set in a private position with beautiful country views.

 

This is quite simply a unique property. Designed to accommodate families who are looking for somewhere to relax and unwind.

 

Sleepy Bear Cottage is peaceful, secluded and romantic. Sleepy Bear Cottage is less than 10 minutes drive from the charming town of Oban where there are plenty of things to see and do. Oban is well known for being the seafood capital of Scotland meaning that there a lots of places to eat and drink.

Please note that the cottage has just recently undergone a full renovation and refurbishment. The property has an enclosed garden that still requires a little TLC which we hope to have completed during the summer months and better weather.

“Sleep Bear experience”

Reviewed 15 Jul 2019

This modern cottage was ideal for a week away near Oban. It is in a peaceful location with stunning views and is a perfect base for all the local attractions. Matthew provided great arrival instructions and we felt at home the minute we arrived. The necessary stuff is there from hairdryer, ironing board and iron, tea, coffee and sugar. All the kitchen equipment you need and of course the all important bath robes for the brilliant hot tub. The free wi-fi and satellite TV were of great help with the kids as well as the selection of DVD's... not used very often thanks to the brill weather. All the rooms were clean and comfortable and hot water was available on demand. The garden was brill for playing in with the kids. We loved our time here and will hopefully be back.

Response from the owner Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. It is a shame that you did not mention any of these issues to us at the time, in order to allow us to rectify them, especially as your stay was for much more than just a couple of nights, it would have been easy for us to change the light bulbs etc very quickly. These tend to pop frequently over the winter, due to the colder weather we have in Scotland. The lounge windows were replaced shortly after your stay. Unfortunately we were unable to do this before then due to back to back bookings (all of which left 5 star reviews). It is good to hear that you felt that the cottage was comfortable and we are sorry to hear that you felt the property is not as luxurious as your own rental. We look forward to finding out for ourselves but we think that we must be doing something right as almost 100% of our other reviews are 5 star.
