  • Attractive Argyll crofters' cottage in serene rural setting
  • Panoramic glen and mountain views all around
  • Light, modern interior and superb balcony with glass balustrade
Property code: CA379

Indulge in a romantic retreat for two in this tranquil former croft cottage or share special time with friends, set right at the heart of a Scottish glen. Relax to a backdrop of spectacular views of Loch Awe and Ben Cruachan or venture out to enjoy mountain and riverside walks. Fish in Loch Awe or take a boat out on the water. Walk past the stunning ruins of Kilchurn Castle, standing guard over the great watery expanse. Drive 23 miles into Oban, with its shops and leisure facilities, and then explore the western coast of Scotland. Head 12 miles in the other direction to Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park.

Awake to the sight of deer grazing close by, open the doors from either of of the stylish bedrooms and step out onto the balcony, with its glass balustrade. Prepare breakfast in the kitchen/diner and enjoy it either at the table inside or out on the balcony as you continue to wildlife watch. Settle down for the evening in ther inviting lounge, where you can light the open fire and watch TV. Find a little privacy in the reading room, where there is another TV and where a sofa bed can be made up by arrangement for an additional guest. Relax in the walk-in waterfall shower after a long day of walking.

Savour the seclusion of the setting by spending time out in the large enclosed garden. Please keep an eye on children at all times as there is a fast-flowing burn here. Enjoy a BBQ as dusk falls and make the most of the opportunity for a little star-gazing.

We had a lovely fortnight at Tigh Na Abhainn, a very quiet location. Helen was very helpful and friendly. The property was spotless and comfortable. There were lots of little things which added a homely touch - lots of lamps (great when you're getting older and need more light to see things!), bath sheets rather than skimpy towels, a great shower aRead morend comfy beds. The kitchen had a good array of pans and utensils, including a range of smaller pans - great for just 2 people. We will return. Hide

A lovely lodge with outstanding views, peace and quiet, and so much to do. Well equipped for families and a great base to explore. Highly recommend a visit to Cruachan power station (the tour into the mountain is great!), Ganavan sands (beach near Oban), and the Loch Lomond fairy trail. Peter and Helen are lovely hosts; communication was second to Read morenone and we were welcomed on arrival. Hope to visit again in the future! Hide

We absolutely loved our stay at Tigh Na Abhainn Croft; it's in a suberb location, with beautiful views of the surrounding landscape (when it wasn't misty & raining), we even saw a big herd of deer! The croft was extremely well appointed, the kitchen was well equipped & the beds really comfy. There were books to read, games to play & DVDs to watch -Read more loads of things to keep us occupied. Nearby, there was a handy shop in the village. This is the nicest holiday cottage we've ever stayed in! Hide

We had a very pleasant 5 days at Tigh Na Abhainn croft - even though the weather forecast seemed to be against us. The cottage is situated in a magical place with fantastic views of Ben Cruachan that constantly change with variations of light, cloud and mist giving occasional glimpses of the high peaks.

Helen and Peter were absolutely lovely hosts. The cottage was gorgeous and everything you can ever need for your stay was provided. We had amazing weather at the time of our stay. From the views from the cottage, the mountains, the walk down to the river and the walks, the surroundings are just perfect to recharge the batteries, surrounded by naturRead moree, red squirrels, deer and hair coos are just a few we saw on our walks.

This is, hands down, the best place we have ever stayed at. The cottage was immaculate with everything you could think of. My partner and I stayed in the twin room as we like to have our own duvets and the beds were ridiculously comfy.

Very nice and cosy place with enough space. A little smaller than expected from the pictures. Nevertheless comfortable for us as a family of four. Location as expected, we even spotted dears from the patio. Warm welcome from the hosts Helen and Peter. Thank you.
