Please note: No children under 6 years old. There are steps to the upper garden and a culvert in the front garden.. Nestled in the picturesque shore village of Kilmun, The Holly Tree Cottage is a quintessential haven for those seeking solace and serenity. This charming two-bedroom traditional byre conversion is an idyllic retreat that offers accommodation for up to three guests.
The cottage exudes an old-world charm with its stone walls, providing guests with a genuine Scottish experience. It’s a Yes escape from the bustling modern world, allowing you to step back in time and savour the simpler, more tranquil moments. The heart of the Holly Tree Cottage is the inviting open plan living room kitchen & dining area, where a wood burner takes centre stage. This rustic addition not only warms the room but also adds to the cosy ambiance, making it the perfect spot for unwinding after a day exploring the magnificent surrounding landscapes.

The enchanting village of Kilmun itself offers a host of attractions, from its historic church and ancient burial grounds to the Kilmun Arboretum. The entire area is steeped in history and culture, with numerous hiking trails, forests, and wildlife to explore. Guided hiking is available. You are a short drive to the centre of Dunoon & the ferry to take you back over to Helensburgh. Dunoon has parks and a swimming pool if you are looking for a quieter day.
