About this property
Become a Laird of Argyll in this luxurious country house, perfectly positioned on the wild and remote Cowal Peninsula. Savour once in a lifetime natural wonders.
What could be better in life than waking in your own Laird's house on a 1,200 acre farm, far from the madding crowd on the ravishing west coast of Scotland. Enjoy the sweetest bounties of Loch Fyne at Kilfinan (2.5 miles), Portavadie and Kames (both 6 miles) and Tighnabruaich (8 miles), and explore exclusive boutiques, bars, galleries and restaurants. Learn to paddleboard, kayak or canoe around the secluded coves and beaches of the Cowal Peninsula, take a sea safari and tour around Arran, Rothesay and the Burnt Islands (15/5/6 miles as the crow flies). Discover the eight whisky distilleries of Islay and the remote house on Jura where George Orwell wrote 1984' (31/20 miles). As you approach the house along its 1 mile drive, the thrill will never fade. Renovated to impeccable standards, each room, space and mood is imbued with luxury and romance. Immerse yourself in the lounge's soft wood panelled sanctuary around a roaring open fire or read in the quiet library, also with a cosy open fire. Prepare a cornucopia of fresh Loch Fyne seafood in the underfloor heated stone flagged kitchen/diner and feast like lords and ladies on the long dining table, as light pours in through skylights and French doors. Relax in the conservatory and spill out onto the terrace and into the garden for soirees of red wine, BBQs and tales of adventure.
