This lovely property is ideally located for a family holiday exploring this beautiful part of Scotland.. Perched on the edge of the crystal clear waters of Loch Etive, this luxury upper conversion enjoys breathtaking panoramic views towards the Falls of Lora, Mull and Morven. With the bustling fishing port of Oban close by, this property provides an ideal base from which to explore this beautiful part of the Northern Highlands and islands.
From the seaside town of Oban visit the Isle of Mull, just a short ferry trip away. Mull’s capital, Tobermory, is instantly recognisable by its famous brightly painted buildings. The island has a fascinating history, once being home to the chief of Clan MacLean, and the site of the clan’s ancient Duart Castle, which has spectacular views from its battlements.
Further south along the coast are the unspoilt glens and bays of Mid Argyll and Kintyre, and the islands of Islay and Jura which are reachable by ferry. Visit the whitewashed houses of Inveraray and the turreted Inveraray Castle, once home to the Duke of Argyll. Campbeltown in Kintyre has some lovely beaches nearby.
The captivating Isle of Bute lies at the heart of the Firth of Clyde. It is a place of tranquil relaxation with sheltered coves and sandy bays, ideal for leisurely hiking and easy-going cycling. Take in the grandeur of Rothesay Castle or Mount Stuart House and Gardens, where the Marquess of Bute once lived. You can also take a ferry to visit the beautiful islands of Iona, Staffa and the Treshnish Isles. The area is a paradise for water sports enthusiasts, mountain bikers, mountain climbers and walkers with all the nearby glens, mountain ranges and coastal paths to explore.

Wonderful cottage, setting idealic, well equipped, warm welcome from friendly owners, who had done a thoughtful grocery shop so we could have cooked breakfast on first morning. Very impressed with Otters View, we intend to return.
The property is lovely with stunning views. Everything you need to make it comfortable and lots of kitchen equipment. The host made us very welcome.

We had a fantastic week in the aptly named Otters View.
We had a fantastic week in the aptly named Otters View. The property is right on Loch Etive and the scenery is spectacular. We enjoyed watching the beautiful sunsets and plentiful wildlife and were lucky enough to see 3 dolphins (which we understand is rare!). The property is finished to a high standard. Although marketed as one bathroom there is a cloakroom with a second wc and sink. The owners have added lots of thoughtful touches to make your stay more comfortable. It was perfect for our family of four and we would highly recommend Otters View to anyone looking for holiday accommodation on the West Coast.

House is advertised as sleeping 4 but is not suitable for 4 adults as only one main bathroom with a very small sink and a cloakroom with toilet and another small sink.
Property would suit 2 adults and small children.
Very comfortable living area but log burner should have been moved to one side and not in the middle of the view.
Kitchen lacked a few items especially in the drinking glasses.
