About this property

Quiet, cosy country cottage with views across the Firth of Clyde to Ailsa Craig

This spacious single story cottage which was a shepherds house in days gone by has been modernised without losing it's traditional features. Situated in a very quiet location surrounded by fields and moorland makes it ideal for couples looking for a quiet retreat but also for families . There is access to a nearby beach, and attractive and secluded rocky bay via a path which is easy walking but fairly steep. The cottage is built in traditional style with thick stone walls and is very cosy and warm all year round. The large sitting room is light and airy and has a log burning stove as well as central heating. There is a large enclosed garden surrounded by a hedge affording total privacy with garden furniture and a barbecue. The kitchen is well equipped and has a dining table. The double bedroom is spacious and has a king sized bed with electric blanket and the bathroom is separate but next to the bedroom. The second bedroom has two full sized 3' single beds and is comfortable for two adults or two children. South Argyll is one of the most spectacular parts of Scotland with beautiful scenery, hills, lochs and wildlife.. The cottage is an ideal base for visiting the nearby islands and the Mull of Kintyre. It is an area steeped in history, offering varied activities and is a wonderful area for hillwalking, bird watching, fishing and touring. On the shore can be seen otters, seals and many waders and other seabirds.
In Campbeltown which is 3 miles away, there are two whisky distilleries, a pretty harbour and attractive shops selling local produce, arts and crafts, as well as 2 supermarkets, and a large swimming pool with fitness centre and gym

Wonderful time....
We had a fantastic time staying here. We had everything we needed...... Saw seals, Mull of Kintyre in the fog and then in the glorious sunshine and the sheep on the beach! We loved the area and would love to visit some of the bits we missed visiting this time. Thank you!

Peaceful family escape
We had a blissful two weeks stay at Stable Cottage. The accommodation was comfortable, clean and really well equipped, it also felt incredibly warm and welcoming. The garden area was brilliant for our two little boys, building camps, running off energy and chatting to the cows in field next door. The surrounding area is full of adventure, climbing hills to see ruined hill cottages, visits to the sandy beach at Westport and Southend, hot chocolate in Campbletown and a speed boat ride from the harbour not to mention the wildlife, seals, golden eagle, porpoise and dolphins - spectacular! It’s worth saying that we had real issues with our car which made us less mobile than expected, we needed a new clutch and a reconditioned gear box all sorted by Alan Glen at AG Autos, who went above and beyond! Despite the stress and extra cost of this it made sure we stayed put more than we might and were able to relish the incredible surroundings of Stable Cottage with the occasional hire car from the very helpful Kintyre Hire. Mary was always quick to respond to our queries and we felt very well looked after by the community as a whole, a really friendly “wee toon” We’ll be back!

Spacious, peaceful and very enjoyable
Beautifully located cottage with enough space to sleep four people. Very helpful landlords and elaborate descriptions of walks, local sights and amenities. The bathroom is a bit quaint, but overall a very enjoyable experience, especially if you're after some peace and quiet.
