- "Very well equipped holiday accommodation with a stunning view in a lovely quiet and relaxing location. And not a midge to be seen!" - "Everything was perfect - location, accommodation, service. Hope to go back again for another wonderful, relaxing break" - "This is the fourth time we have stayed at Derryguaig and it did not disappoint. This year we even had good weather except the last day, although the down side was that the midges and clegs were out in force. The village was very quiet, even for June but fishing, walking, kayaking, paddle boarding were excellent all week. Missed seeing the Waverley this year though I believe she is back on the Clyde again at the end of the month. Shame the Gluepot and Royal have got so dear these days. Glad the Tinny still keeping the faith."
