About this property

A warm and inviting waterside home with amazing views over to the Isle of Mull. Situated in an area of natural beauty with access to the water via the slipway for kayak enthusiasts. Jump on the ferry to Luing where you can cycle, walk or drive around the island and enjoy the photographic opportunities of the abundant wildlife. Relax in the conservatory where you can watch the Cuan Sound traffic battle the ever changing tides. Witness the fishing boats off loading their catch of lobster, scallops and langoustines. The garden is in the process of being "wilded" but there is an area for sitting and eating outside. It has various visitors from deer to Highland Cows.

Photo ID Card or driving licence is required on booking. Please read house rules.

A cosy home in a wonderful picturesque location

Some times when you book a place to stay for a week with friends you are taking a bit of a leap of faith hoping that the location, environment and " feel " will match what you imagine in your mind's eye. We were extremely pleased with the house, while not overly large, we never felt cramped. The front observatory room was constantly in use, for reading, chatting and watching the amazing tides. The furniture was great for lounging. While we intended to use this location to explore the Oban and surrounding area we only left the immediate area of North Cuan and Luing island once. Instead we took the opportunity to explore within 5 miles as we found there was more than enough to do. A great relaxing week, aided by friendly locals, amazing scenery, abundant wildlife and some friendly ferry dogs. The house itself was nicely decorated and well laid out, with enough room for the 4 of us to spread out. (In fact we contacted our hosts, who were great by the way, about sourcing some of the wall art to find out that our host made them). Our hosts left us a stocked welcome basket and unlike some rentals, little extras like a full jar of coffee, sugar and tea plus extra rolls of toilet paper and other little necessities which reduced the need to head to a store to get. The photos do not do justice to the area. Thank you J and C for assisting us when the need arose.

Everything we could have asked for

Fantastic is the only way to describe this property. Really comfortable house with everything we could have wanted for self catering. The welcome hamper was such a treat and the views are just breath taking. We came to visit Mull, which wasnt that great, so being located here near Oban was perfect. So much do to and see walking wise. Islands, forests. We even saw otters and seals from the conservatory window! Cannot rate highly enough!

Lovely stay in the Highlands

The property is absolutely lovely in every detail. The house has been recently refurbished, and everything is beautifully decorated and equipped. We were two couples and had plenty of space and privacy for an 11-day trip.

About the host

Hosted by Jinty

My husband and I are both retired and enjoy splitting our time between this house by the sea and our home. We both love sailing especially on the West Coast.

Why they chose this property

The property has a unique position on the waterfront and has recently been renovated to a simple but high standard providing a comfortable and inviting ambience both in summer and winter. The situation is suitable for both active sporty holidays or just relaxing watching the everyday life in the comfort of the conservatory. The garden is going through a 'wilding' process at the moment and has regular visitors of deer, hedgehogs, pine martins to name a few.

What makes this property unique

This is a very popular area for photographers, walkers, cyclists but is best known for its kayaking opportunities and you can either take part or enjoy the more comfortable sport of spectating from the warmth of the conservatory. There is a lovely pub called the Oyster Bar about 3 miles away in Ellenabeich which serves great food and also the Tigh 'n Trish Hotel at the Atlantic bridge serves food. The area is served by a local shop at Balvicar where you can find everything from local meats and fish products to everyday essentials. There are also several boat trips available to book nearby.
