Guest Reviews

We have had a wonderful week here, using "Westview" as our base. The weather has been fabulous every day, and we have watched the incredible sunsets from the cottage window. There aren't enough superlatives to describe Westview. The decor is wonderful, and every need has been catered for. We have certainly appreciated the thoughtful details - we have wanted for nothing. Hopefully, we will be back sometime in the not-too-distant future. There is much more to do and see in this beautiful part of Scotland.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Westview Cottage in the charming fishing village of Port William, and it was an absolutely fantastic experience. From the moment I stepped foot into the cottage, I was greeted with a sense of tranquility and relaxation. The location of Westview Cottage is truly remarkable. Situated in the heart of Port William, it offers breathtaking views of the surrounding coastal beauty. Waking up to the sound of seagulls and the gentle lapping of waves was a true delight. The cottage itself was meticulously maintained, beautifully furnished, and thoughtfully decorated, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The owners of Westview Cottage were exceptional hosts. Their warm welcome and attention to detail made me feel right at home. They provided all the necessary amenities and went above and beyond to ensure a comfortable stay. Their knowledge of the local area was invaluable, as they offered fantastic recommendations for exploring the village and nearby attractions. Port William itself is a gem. The fishing village has a captivating charm, with its quaint streets, friendly locals, and stunning coastal walks.

Beautiful location, amazingly well equipped, spotlessly clean. It's nice to stay somewhere where some real thought had gone into the property. You could travel light as everything you need is here. The owners couldn't do enough to help us with helpful info during our stay. 5* from us.
