“Another fabulous holiday in your wonderful cottage with such stunning scenery. Thank you so much, Mary. We will definitely be back!
Helen & Paul, October 2024“Once again a very relaxing stay at Air an Oir. Many thanks Mary and see you again next year.”
David & Steven, October 2024“This is our 4th visit to Air an Oir and as always we have had a wonderful time with the added bonus this year of four sunny days. While we would be quite content to spend the week gazing out the window at the wonderful view, we have enjoyed visits to Tobermory, Mallaig, Sanna Bay, Ardnamurchan Lighthouse and Castle Tioram. We've seen wildlife from the house including three seals, a sea eagle, stag and deer. We certainly hope to return again. Thank you Mary.”
Steve & Mandy, September 2024"Another magical time at Air an Oir. Four weeks have flown by. Plenty of white tailed eagles, dolphins,porpoises but only one glimpse of the otter. Swimming at Sanna and Swordle. Very few golden eagles but hen harrier spotted at harvest time. New born calves in the “ Nursery” field. Many thanks again for allowing us the privilege of staying in your home and our “ home from home.” Until next year!!X"
Brian and Fiona, September 2024“A wonderful couple of weeks as always. A magical place”

“The last few weeks have flown by far too quickly! Fantastic time once again, mixed weather of sunshine and rain, but that's part of the fun! Lots of walking, kayaking and lots of wildlife. Three white tailed eagles flying past most days and otters in the bay, early morning. Pods of dolphins out past the bay most evenings. Lots of deer in the fields below and a male hen harrier also flew past on a couple of occasions. Perfect evenings sitting out on The Cube enjoying the beautiful sunsets. Highlight of our final week was watching The Northern Lights and Meteor Shower sitting out on The Cube until 3a.m.The colours were amazing( we had our own “Local Hero “ moment!).Thank you Mary so much for sharing your wonderful house, everything was perfect as usual. We can't wait to do it all again next year & forever!! xx

David & Steven, May 2024Words can never express the wonderful time we have had over the past five weeks. Very mixed weather, but we managed to swim twice at Sanna. As always, we enjoyed the wildlife viewings.- white, tailed, eagle most days, Pine Martin caught on night camera, dolphins in The Bay along with the local otter in The Bay on the left side below the house. Also a family of otters at Kilchoan ferry port. The latest local attraction is the honesty box on the left hand side on the way to Kilchoan. Full of wonderful traybakes made by Lyndsey, her pancakes are scrummy - would recommend to everyone. Swordle Makes is a great addition. Thanks again Mary for allowing us to stay in this haven by the sea and rebooked for our visit next year- our 18th year. Fiona and Brian ,
August / September. 2023.Fantastic time here again, thank you, Mary for sharing your home. Perfect weather, lots of sunshine and of course a bit of rain! Lots to see as always, two otters in the Bay most mornings, pods of dolphins nearly every night, some coming close into the Bay. Highlight was watching dolphins and minke whales, having a feeding frenzy with gulls and many shearwaters and then a minke whale breaching 7/8 times!! The two resident white tailed eagles flying past every day , sometimes over the cottage. Lots of walking and kayaking and then the perfect end, standing on The Cube at 3.30a.m. to see The Northern Lights!! Can't wait to do it all again next year, Thankyou so much for the perfect holiday. Jane and Andy,
July/ August 2023.Mixed weather But some good days. Four or five walks, a bike ride and a swim. A wonderful trip to Staffa. White tailed eagle and nine dolphins from the house. Cuckoo still calling near Ockle. Lyn and Steve,

June 2023.A wonderful week !! At times warm enough to sit and enjoy Mary's lovely garden, hike and enjoy the wildlife. Other days wet enough to settle down with a good book. See you in September. Thankyou Mary. David and Myra,
June 2023.Once again, a fantastic stay at Air an Oir and this was enhanced by glorious weather for the whole week! Spotted the dolphins, swimming westwards across the bay one morning, the pair of buzzards were scooting about in front of the house as per usual, and also a stag in the field below the house most evenings,. ( The weather also seemed to have pulled in some unwelcome marine life too- loads of jellyfish were in the bay earlier in the week!) Air an Oir is just a peaceful haven to have the most relaxing holiday. Thanks again. Johnny and Marietta,
