Evening all,

It’s like paradise here at No 10 this evening, definitely the calm before the storm lol!

We’ve a set of guests managing to arrive tomorrow to the front cottage but sadly our guests in the Bothy are due to arrive when the storm hits so we are looking to reschedule…

Have a great weekend when it comes, hunker down, batten the hatches, light the fire and stay safe - enjoy, Mark

Evening all,

I hope that you are well and all snuggled up?

I popped up to No 10 after work to service the Bothy and light the fire, switch on the lamps and give the cottage a general “turn down service” before our lovely guests arrived off the last ferry. A nice warm welcome!

I happened to glance out the window and see the sun set - wow, I’m bias but it really is paradise in Catacol, I mean we even have palm trees 🌴in the garden lol!

The (4 min!) clip is a little walk round of No 10 this evening, who wouldn’t want to come and stay this time of year - it’s ideal! And we really are that close to the beach and the wildlife.

Winter Rates from - £135 per night minimum 3 night break if booked directly, details on previous post.

Homeward bound for a night cap lol -
Cheers, Mark

Afternoon all,

Busy day today at No 10 with both cottages checked out and new guests not due to arrive until tomorrow, so as an extra special welcome I’ve been in touch and advised them that they are able to check in early doors tomorrow - they were delighted as it’s essentially an extra days holiday!

I’ll continue to do this when I can for the remainder of the year as it’s a little thank you from me!

It’s a wild day here on the rock but don’t let days like this or the crossing put you off as there’s always a way to get to the stunning Isle - I know as I do it weekly lol!

The “wee ferry” sails all year round from Cloanaig to Lochranza which is a 5 minute drive from the cottages.

She’s a hardy wee thing, so there's no need to panic about reaching the island or in fact leaving like we are today and currently in the queue!

Just check the CalMac sailings before you travel, and you'll be putting your feet up in front of the fire in no time.

Also, a HUGE shout out the the Calmac Team at Locrhanza and the MV Catriona - what an amazing service!

Hope to see you soon, Mark
