Cosy cottage on beautiful coastal estate with loch views
Our cottage sits within its own extensive private garden on the scenic Ardpatrick Estate, ten miles from Tarbert, Loch Fyne.
There are fantastic views of the surrounding hills and West Loch Tarbert from the kitchen extension and wraparound deck. Watch the Islay ferry go by from the second, raised, deck dining area with OFYR outdoor cooker and fire pit.
The cottage has two bedrooms-one with a king sized bed,one with two single beds. The bathroom has a roll top bath, separate shower enclosure and underfloor heating.
Wood burning stoves in the sitting room and the large kitchen diner make this a cosy place to relax after a days sightseeing.
The well equipped kitchen is newly renovated and has ample storage space, a dishwasher and SAGE coffee maker.
