About this property

An incredibly special Scottish Cottage set back into the hillside, its full-length panoramic window taking advantage of the most spectacular seascape views to the south-west across Asknish Bay to the islands of Shuna, Scarba and Jura. In an area of great natural scenic beauty nestled between Oban and Lochgilphead.

Nestled within the stunning Feochan Glen, not far from the bustling town of Oban, offering spacious accommodation in which guests can relax and unwind, enjoying the peaceful surroundings and breath-taking views visible from the property's large windows.

Refurbished to an exceptionally high standard; the property combines class and quality whilst offering you all you could hope for in terms of comfort, peace and relaxation. Comfortably sleeping 8, the cottage is an ideal base for your self-catering holiday in Argyll. The gardens and immediate surrounding area play host to a wide range of fauna including red squirrel, pine marten and otters playing in the bay with numerous bird species also present, which includes occasional sightings of Golden and Sea Eagles over the Bay.

A few hundred yards north are the famous Arduaine Gardens and The Loch Melfort Hotel offering an excellent bistro and formal restaurant with incredible views to the west. The bay at Arduaine has its own jetty for you to launch your rib or kayaks and is on the now famous west coast Sea Kayak Trail! 2.5 miles to the south of the cottage is Craobh Haven, a popular holiday and sailing village with berths for up to 250 crafts. With a harbour master, marina office and store -the stunning views take in the local islands of Shuna, Seil and Luing, as well as many better-known islands from Jura in the South to the highlands of Mull in the North. Running regularly from here are a number of excellent wildlife cruises which also take in the famous Gulf of Corryvreckan with the largest whirlpool in the world.

The village has a local shop and a highly-recommended pub/restaurant 'The Lord of The Isles'.

25 minutes' drive north along the A816 coastal road is Oban, a picturesque and bustling harbour town with an array of splendid shops and restaurants to experience; known as "The Seafood Capital of Scotland" it doesn't disappoint.
