Bedroom 2: 2 x Single (3ft) Beds, Pull Out Single (3ft) Bed. Electric central heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included. Initial fuel for wood burner included. Cot, highchair and stairgate available on request.. Enclosed lawned garden at front and decking area. Private parking for 2 cars. No smoking. Please note: A stream runs by the cottage.. Port-an-Eillean is a quaint detached property set on a croft looking out to Loch Riddon on the Cowal Peninsula. The cottage is over 100 years old, with thick stone walls and originally had a thatched roof. All rooms have a view down to the sea loch and across to the hills beyond. The cottage is pleasantly furnished with two bedrooms upstairs and lounge, kitchen/diner and shower room downstairs. The area is great for cycling and a canoe/kayak can be easily launched from the shore. Fishing is available from the rocky shoreline. There is an enclosed grassy garden at the front door and from the back door you are lead out onto decking which is also enclosed, both provide areas for children to play. The croft is set within approximately 14 acres of rugged ground, with some machinery stored on it, unfenced to the shoreline and a river runs passed the cottage, so children would need to be supervised at all times. The croft is no longer worked but the owners may on occasions visit their static caravan.

We enjoyed a lovely stay here! Couldn't fault accommodation, had everything you could need.
We enjoyed a lovely stay here! Couldn't fault accommodation, had everything you could need. Stunning location. A little remote but that was the appeal. Could drive to small shop easily and we got a bit shopping delivered to see us through our stay. Few day trips out and about, but mainly we were there for the tranquility and it exceeded our expectations.
