A wonderful holiday cottage in a beautiful setting with glorious views.
A wonderful holiday cottage in a beautiful setting with glorious views. The cottage is situated on a large estate and has fabulous views over a beautiful garden and a sea loch. The cottage is ideally located in a little village with a shop, petrol station, tearoom, museum and pub. Only a 30 minute drive from the ferry crossing to the Isle of Bute or Inveraray Castle and 15 minutes from Benmore Botanical Gardens. The cottage is warm and cosy with an Aga in the kitchen and all the amenities you need for a happy holiday :-)
