Only an hour and a half from Glasgow, the scenery is magnificent. Blending original stone features with contemporary comfort, the house offers a stylish and welcoming base for family gatherings, celebrations or relaxed group escapes. Travertine-tiled floors, underfloor heating and high-quality finishes give the property a warm, luxurious feel throughout.
At the heart of the house is a spacious, open-plan ground floor. The light and airy kitchen and breakfast room features oak cabinetry, a granite worktop, a Belfast sink and quality appliances. A dramatic stone arch leads into the main living and dining area, furnished with four comfortable sofas, a large TV and a French Oak dining table seating 12–16 guests — perfect for shared meals and evenings together. There is also a separate TV and play room with a sofa-bed, ideal for children or extra guests, along with a ground-floor shower room and a relaxing sauna.
Upstairs, seven thoughtfully designed bedrooms offer a mix of super-king rooms, flexible twin/super-king options, a bunk room and a cosy small double. Many include their own wash basins and enjoy views of the gardens, mountains or courtyard. Three attractive bathrooms, including two with corner Jacuzzi baths, ensure comfort for larger groups.
Outside, a private cobbled courtyard and BBQ area with a 7-person hot tub completes this elegant and sociable Highland escape. Visiting wildlife include red squirrels and deer and the night skies, in the absence of any light pollution, are mind-blowing. Guests get access to 25 acres of grounds including a tennis court, football pitch, games cottage with ping pong, pool table and dart board.
A perfect location for holiday makers looking for walking, cycling, sailing, fishing, stalking, golf or just sight-seeing. Easy access to the historic towns of Dunoon, Rothesay, and Inverary. Loch Lomond within a scenic 35 minutes, convenient ferries from Colintraive to Bute, and from Portavadie to Tarbert for the Mull of Kintyre and the inner Hebrides.
