    Holiday Rental House
    The Old School House was built in the early 1880s and was the home for the village school teacher. It is set in a elevated position at the edge of the village. We have totally updated this property to create a elegant, cosy house for four guests. Equipped with all you will need! Downstairs as you enter through the front door on your right you have a large family kitchen with microwave, ceramic hob, fitted oven, dishwasher and equipped with all you will need to prepare meals with ease. Beyond the kitchen is a small utility with a washing machine and sink and access out the back door to a small yard with log shed. Off the utility room is a small boiler room with loo and wash hand basin. On the left of the front door you go through into the sitting room with log burner, flat Freesat TV, DVD,...The Old School House was built in the early 1880s and was the home for the village school teacher.

On the left of the front door you go through into the sitting room with log burner, flat Freesat TV, DVD, wifi and docking station. Elegantly decorated with really comfortable sofas and chairs and original art work on the walls. Upstairs off the landing are two bedrooms with zip and link beds, so you can be super-king or twin. All have electric blankets, hair dryers, light feather duvets, crisp white linen sheets and pocket sprung mattresses for a rally comfortable night sleep. Off the landing is a good size family bathroom with large walk in Aqualisa shower and a separate bath. Outside is a large garden which is mostly lawn with a haha dropping down to the quite country lane. The cottage looks across the fields to the main farm on the estate and on the opposite side of the road set back are two other properties and the village hall so you are not completely on your own. We are very happy if you wish to bring one dog. Please look at our website for more information and activities on the estate and in the local area. More

    About the neighbourhood
    There is so much to do in the local area and you will be hard pressed to fit it into one week! On the estate we hire out bikes, kayaks, boats and have excellent fishing for pike and wild brown trout in over 25 lochs. Loads of walks and cycling routes. There are ferries to the local Islands Gigha, Mull, Jura, Islay, Iona and Lismore from Oban, Kennacraig and Tayinloan. There are also local wildlife boat trips from Ardfern. The area is steeped in history with a local museum with many castles and old settlements to explore in the Kilmartin Glen. Inveraray has the Duke of Argylls Castle which is open to the public and The Old Jail to explore. Local sailing RYA club, kayaking tours,horse riding and guided whiskey trails. As you can see you can be action packed or just unwind in a stunning part of Scotland!
    Getting around
    This is in a wonderful remote location so a car is essential.
