Quiet location, great for nature
The cottage facilities are very good and although it’s in a quiet location there is plenty to do and see within easy access of the cottage.
The wildlife around the cottage ranging from many different birds to squirrels and seals and porpoises in the loch.
For provisions, Dunoon is only 20 minutes drive and has 2 good supermarkets.
