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.
