Characterful and cozy cottage

We arrived in the dark and took a minute to realise that the cottage was up a short path. Once in we found it warm and welcoming with lots of homely touches. Everything we needed was there. I was an excellent base from which to explore the local area with superb, less visited hills nearby.

As G. Bernard Shaw wrote when he stayed here in 1903 "The place is very pretty"

Beautiful cottage in its almost original state. Very friendly and helpful landlady. Great to stay here and discover the surrounding area. We went as far as Oban.
