About the host
Hosted by Libby Foy-Lowrey
Hello. Ny name is Libby and I have lived in the wonderous village of Dalavich for almost 30 years with my family. The area is the ideal spot to relax, unwind and slow down. I hope to welcome you soon.
Why they chose this property
Dalavich is well off the beaten track and the perfect spot to walk, cycle, swim, paddleboard and fish! The flat is in the heart of the remote forest village of Dalavich on Loch Awe in Argyll. The flat offers you all that you need for a comfortable and relaxing stay including smart tv with Netflix, Wi-Fi, a full kitchen, electric heating and all linen and towels. There is also a small balcony with seating where you can enjoy the view of the village and surrounds . Please be aware that the flat is accessed by an outdoor staircase and is therefore not suitable for those with mobility restrictions.
We have contactless arrivals so you may go directly to the Flat anytime after 3pm on your day of arrival. You can park anywhere in front of the shop or in the space at the bottom of the flat stairs located at the gable end of the building. The door will be open with the key inside on the kitchen worktop, please leave the key on the worktop when you leave. Check out is 11am.

What makes this property unique
Located 14 miles up a single track road, Dalavich is remote but has almost everything you need. The flat is located above a village shop and licensed café that is open most days (seasonal opening variations) until 5pm. Its the perfect spot for a nice lunch or afternoon Latte & Scone. Just a 3 minute walk away is the Lochside bar and restaurant (Seasonal hours also apply). There is a full Laundrette and Children's play park just around the corner from the flat . The loch is just a stones throw from the flat where you can wild swim, paddleboard, hire a boat, or try some fishing in its record holding waters! There are miles and miles of forest walks and cycle routes and bike hire is available locally. We are located on the NC78 national cycle route and are a great stop off point for a well deserved night off in comfort.
