This beautifully appointed cottage offers two bedrooms (one en-suite) upstairs and an open plan living space downstairs with a wood burner and a fully equipped kitchen. The views are sublime and look out over Loch Linnhe, the Port Appin Lighthouse, the north end of the Isle of Lismore and over to the Morven mountain range. In front of the cottage not only will you see sheep but also two pet lamas that are nosy and do pop by to see who is watching them!
In the village of Port Appin is a community-run shop as well as a craft shop selling predominantly local gifts and paintings. Port Appin is half way between Oban and Fort William (both of which have the larger supermarkets, banks and other facilities) and is 3 miles off the main road, down a single track road to the peninsula. It is a great area for walking, either around Clach Thoull for your morning stroll or hopping on the ferry over to Lismore and enjoy a nice walk or cycle the length and breadth of the island, perhaps stopping off on the way back at the locally-run café.
Oban is the fish capital of the Highlands with lots of good fish restaurants in and around the town; in Port Appin itself there are two excellent restaurants (booking is advised). Glencoe and the rugged mountains are a 30-minute drive north; you can also venture a bit further and go to Fort William and travel on the ‘Harry Potter’ steam train over the Glenfinnan Viaduct, giving you a glimpse of the scenery and beaches that cannot be seen from the road and arriving at the final destination of Mallaig, another village well known for the fresh fish. Argyll is famous for its open gardens and garden centres and Appin and surrounding area have quite a few!
These properties can be booked together to accommodate up to 6 guests.

Such a great place, we had an amazing holiday here. The house has been designed around the view which is spectacular. Very comfortable and everything you could need in a holiday cottage. Very warm and the wood burner is a great addition. Location was ideal, 15 minute walk to the Pierhouse which had a great selection of local drinks for sitting on the terrace watching the sunset over the beach. Great location for exploring the area. Would love to return!
