Ross Cottage is one of the Dunmore Cottages on 120 acres of peace and tranquillity on the shores of West Loch Tarbert in South Knapdale, just seven miles from the fishing village of Tarbert on Loch Fyne.
The new owners purchased Dunmore House and Cottages in 2015/16 which sits on a beautiful estate with stunning views over West Loch Tarbert. They have an exciting vision for Dunmore over the coming years, which includes the full renovation of the self-catering cottages. Their aim is to create a fabulous destination on the West Coast of Scotland providing excellent facilities with a homely feel.
The good news is that they have already commenced the renovation of the cottages. Ross Cottage is a luxury traditional stone cottage all on one level, which has recently been renovated to a very high standard. Visit Scotland has awarded Ross Cottage 5 stars. The Cottage comprises two en suite bedrooms with underfloor heating in the en suite's. The Blue Bedroom has a walk-in shower and large bath. The white bedroom has a walk-in shower en suite. Both bedrooms have king size beds. The kitchen and dining room are fully equipped to the highest standard including dishwasher and Nespresso coffee machine. A 60" curved screen TV is in the living room with views out through the trees to the West Loch.
In the courtyard there is an outdoor table, chairs, gas BBQ and outdoor wood burning heater available for your use whilst staying at the cottage.
The estate is named after the Bronze age fort which tops the spectacular cliffs above the house. These cliffs afford breathtaking views of the West Loch and out to the islands of Gigha and to Islay, famous for its whisky making.
