Self catering cottage in Appin (6mls NE), Northern Scotland

Accommodation details

One of three striking Victorian properties, this spacious family home for six guests is the perfect base from which to relax and explore Argyll and Bute. Close to Oban and Fort William, it is ideally located for visiting Ben Nevis or hopping on a boat to reach nearby Mull, Staffa and Iona. Back at the property, the accommodation is airy and full of charm, with plenty of space both inside and out for family getaways or memorable holidays with friends. You will encounter its cosy and traditional lounge right away when you first arrive at this 19th-century property.

After a long and tiring day spent exploring the local area, sink into a sofa and settle in for an evening of TV or films, or choose a book from one of the many well-stocked bookcases and discover the fascinating history of this area. A sunny conservatory is furnished with a large farmhouse dining table for enjoying family meals, together with rattan sofas for hosting afternoon tea or spending a couple of hours with a good book.

The kitchen is bright and well-equipped, with oak worktops, plenty of storage space and a large window offering spectacular rural views. The conservatory opens onto a delightful patio, furnished with a table and chairs for enjoying an al fresco meal when the weather is warm enough. The extensive garden and shared grounds beyond are a haven for inquisitive and energetic children and offer breathtaking views.
