About this property

MacLeary Apartment - an apartment that sleeps 2 guests in 1 bedroom

MacLeary Apartment enjoys an idyllic setting on the edge of the village of Taynuilt, surrounded by outstanding natural beauty. Secluded and peaceful, this delightful first floor self-catering apartment blends traditional character with modern facilities to offer the perfect setting in which to relax and unwind. This newly renovated and extremely comfortable holiday home sleeps 2 guests in a delightful super-king bedroom. The small, yet fully equipped kitchen has everything needed for holiday catering and the bright and spacious living room, with its double aspect windows, has comfortable seating and the dining table is perfect for relaxed holiday meals. This is a lovely room to relax in and perfect for quiet evenings in front of the log burner after a good country walk.

Lonan House enjoys a glorious Scottish setting with stunning views to Ben Cruachan, Argyll’s highest mountain. Designed by Sir Robert Lorimer and built in 1906, this impressive Edwardian mansion is full of romantic highland character and retains many of its original Arts & Crafts features. This is a wonderful holiday destination for dog owners and guests are invited to enjoy the large surrounding landscaped garden, complete with croquet lawn and pond, extended grounds and woodland which give a wonderful sense of space and freedom. Deer are often seen grazing around the house and this magical spot is home to amazing wildlife including red squirrels, otters and pine marten. Keen birdwatchers will delight at the huge variety of birds including the chance to see golden and white-tailed sea eagles or the beautiful black grouse. There are endless walks to be discovered right from the doorstep and many wonderful panoramic views across the glen to Mull in the West, Loch Etive in the North and Loch Awe in the East. Glen Lonan is part of National Cycle Route 78, The Caledonia Way, stretching 234 miles through stunning Scottish countryside.

Quiet days can be spent relaxing in the surrounding peace, or the nearby harbour town of Oban offers a good range of shops, local attractions and excellent restaurants, many of which serve freshly caught seafood. During the summer the town comes alive with a host of festivals and ceilidhs, attracting bagpipers, highland dancers and traditional musicians from all over the world. There are numerous exciting day trips to be enjoyed including ferries to the beautiful inner Hebridean islands including Mull and Tiree.

The village of Taynuilt is within walking distance (1 mile) and has a train station with regular trains to Glasgow, Oban and Dalmally. Also, it has a well stocked grocery shop, butchers, post office and tea-room. There is a nine-hole course for the golf enthusiast and lovely walks along the piers at Loch Etive.

Einfach toll!
Was soll ich noch großartig schreiben... Es war einfach alles toll. Abgelegen im Grünen, super Ausgangspunkt für Touren nach Fort William, Glencoe, Oban und die Inseln. Die Ausstattung der Wohnung ist super. Wenn es denn mal regnet, hat man ein tolles Zuhause. Viele bringen hier auch Hunde mit, sie sind sehr willkommen. Wir würden jederzeit gerne wieder kommen!

Lonan House
Gorgeous setting for this lovely property. Private and yet close to amenities and beat countryside. Owners were spot on - welcoming and knowledgeable but unobtrusive. The apartment is of a great standard - everything was well thought out and felt very new and clean. Our dog Ruby loved her time there and meeting the owners’ dogs - very friendly and relaxed. Highly recommend.

Wonderful peaceful place
The apartment was perfectly equipped and beautifully presented. Extremely comfortable. Such a peaceful location looking out onto a huge variety of trees and sometimes the mountains, weather permitting! It was the perfect location for me to spend some quiet time away from the city and remaining distant form others. Plenty of walks of varying levels available from the house itself and from a short drive away. An excellent stay and I look forward to returning.
