Home Farm, Glendaruel, Argyll
Amidst a glorious landscape of unspoilt wooded glens, fragmented coastline, stunning sea lochs and breathtaking bays, the delightful cottages at Home Farm nestle in a peaceful wooded valley through which runs the River Ruel. The steading and cottages, formerly the home farm to the estate, have been lovingly renovated and are very comfortably furnished in contemporary Scottish style. Their spacious courtyard setting affords each of them a sense of privacy and they all boast access to 150 acres of grounds where visitors can ramble in lovely woodland, abundant with bird and wildlife, or enjoy a spot of free trout and salmon fishing on the Ruel, the fishing hut provides an ideal picnic spot. One of the most admired views in Scotland, The Kyles of Bute, awaits discovery just 6 miles away, and the tranquil village of Tighnabruaich’s lovely natural bays, sandy beach, shops, restaurants and 9 hole golf course. Dunoon (20 miles) is a popular seaside town and has an 18 hole golf course and Inverary (30 miles), in its glorious setting on the shores of Loch Fyne, promises a rewarding trip. Inverary Jail, now a museum, and Inverary Castle are both well worth exploring. An hour’s drive away, Oban is not only the departure point for boat trips to ‘the Isles’ but also home to a sealife centre and rare breeds park. Colintraive (9 miles) offers a pub serving good food and there is a summer shop (limited opening hours) adjacent to Home Farm.
