About this property
Ardfern 9.7 miles. Overlooking idyllic views of tranquil countryside and mountains, sitting in the remote village of Ford, is this dreamy detached bungalow. Innishail offers a peaceful base for a group of four to enjoy an adventurous rural retreat to Scotland. Be charmed by the peace and quiet of the surrounding areas as you make your way through a luscious lawn towards the property, welcoming you in with glimpses of striking hills. Spend your evenings in the well-equipped kitchen/diner, where you'll find fantastic amenities to aid your home-cooking, as well as a sociable dining table for intimate meals together over a bottle of wine. Once your plates have been put in the dishwasher, snuggle up for a cosy night in the spacious sitting room, escaping reality during a family film night, or admiring the impressive bay window where you can curl up with a good book as you feel calmed by amazing views. Prepare for bed in the gorgeous bathroom, choosing between a sumptuous bubble bath soak, or a relaxing rinse in the walk-in shower, complemented by a toasty heated towel rail. Retire to one of the inviting double bedrooms after a long day of exploration, both are well-presented with ample storage for all your belongings. Head out on a romantic stroll away from the group as you explore the local village of Ford, breathing in the fresh country air as you walk hand in hand by the quiet river, or enjoy picnics on one of the nearby green areas. A range of local amenities can be found in the nearby coastal village of Ardfern, boasting a village shop where you can stock up on essentials, a welcoming pub for indulging in a smooth pint and pub grub, as well as a quaint tea room, craft centre, and a gorgeous marina to discover. Closer to home is the Kilmartin Hotel just 4.6 miles away, a 19th century pub where you can catch up with the locals over Scottish ales before visiting the Kilmartin House Museum of Ancient Culture, and the Temple Wood Stone Circle. Other attractions nearby include Carnasserie Castle, the sailing port at Craobh Haven, a whisky trail, and opportunities for watersports, sailing and fishing on the sparkling waters of Loch Awe. Alternatively, venture over to the exciting towns of Lochgilphead and Oban, home to a wealth of contemporary amenities, high street shops, trendy bars, romantic restaurants, and a cinema. Escape the hustle and bustle of daily life at Innishail. EPC Rating: Band E

Its 5 stars across the board from us and exceeded expectations. To be honest we have not stayed in any better accommodation over many years of travelling. On top of this is the wonderful location, even with a poor weather week it didn't seem to matter. So much on your doorstep to explore and one week was not really enough. We would hope to visit again and wouldn't hesitate to stay at Innishall if it was available . Nigel & Rachel

The cottage was very clean and the kitchen had everything needed for a comfortable stay. The garden is lovely and perfect for the children to play and explore. The owners were very kind and friendly. Would like to book this property again due to its location and good experience.
