This stunning lochside home is perfect for a family retreat or a peaceful getaway with friends. Enjoy views of Glencoe in the distance, and Loch Etive right on your doorstep – follow the track from the garden to reach the shoreline. The boat jetty is an idyllic spot for a picnic, and there’s a barbecue in the garden. When it’s chilly outside, curl up in the living room with a whisky and a board game – what could be better? This is a secluded home-from-home, but you’ll be just 5 miles from the shops of Taynuilt, and 15 miles from Oban.

About Argyll and Bute
Some of Scotland’s wildest outposts can be found in the beguiling land of Argyll and Bute.
