It really is all about location when it comes to this former dower home, set on a slope right above the east side of Loch Fyne. With a private bay and over fifty acres of estate, it’s a personal haven for anyone looking to explore Scotland at a more mellow pace. Though historic – the house was used as a base for the Norwegian commandos who went on the Heroes of Telemark raid during WWII – you’ll likely spend more time outside of the home, but with plenty of windows facing out onto the waters, it won’t be the worst thing if you do find yourself curled up next to the wood-burner with a cup of coffee.
With those breath taking views visible from almost everywhere, including the games room, keep yourselves entertained with friendly table tennis competitions or a few rounds of pool. When colder days force you away from the bay, pack up your spades and buckets and trade the loch waters for a heated indoor pool. Boost your endorphins in the sauna room every morning before cobbling breakfast together in the generous kitchen, and when you’re ready for adventure, set off for a day trip on the ferry or in search of golf in Tighnabruaich.
This home is spread over two floors, with no internal lift, but there’s a ground-floor bedroom and bathroom here for those with reduced mobility
