Innish is within just a few yards of an excellent pub and eatery, and although rural, the island is really well served for amenities. With an excellent local Store at Balvicar, plus several shops, pubs & restaurants on the island, you will not have to travel far to find a place to eat out or find something to do or explore. The Isle of Seil is one of the Slate Islands, known as the “Islands which roofed the World” and has been linked to the mainland by the Clachan Bridge (Bridge Over The Atlantic) since the late 18th century. An abundance of wild life in the area; eagles, buzzards, kestrels, otters, deer, badgers, and a friendly local community, makes it an ideal place to get away from the bustle of city life and unwind.
There are several fantastic boat trip operators nearby offering a chance to see the amazing wildlife including a high speed Rib Boat trip through the Corryvreckan whirlpools. There is a nine hole golf course on the island, charters, kayaking, diving and numerous walks. The bridge which connects the Isle of Seil to the mainland enables easy access for exploring the Oban area and mid-Argyll as well as Glencoe and Fort William. Beach 14½ miles. Pub and restaurant 85 yards.

Fabulous. The house is large and easily accommodates a large family. Everything you need is provided. I found the mattress in the large en suite room too hard and uncomfortable but that’s a preference, I know. Beautiful location, with a useful shop 2 miles away. The pub next door is great even if just for a pint after a long day exploring. The islands of Easdale and Luing are stunning and just a short ferry ride to each. Do explore this area as well, it’s so tranquil and away from the crowds.

Through enjoyed our stay at Innish especially the AGA cooker! First time I have cooked on one and another ✔ off my bucket list. Position of house was perfect watching traffic going over the Atlantic Bridge. Very comfortable, roomy and well equipped house.
