Sanderlings

About this property

JUST ADDED TO OUR PORTFOLIO WITH AVAILABILITY THROUGHOUT 2020:

Offering comfortable holiday accommodation for up to four guests, Sanderlings is situated in Toberonochy, on the Isle of Luing. Once a busy slate quarrying settlement, Toberonochy is now a peaceful and picturesque harbour village with easy access to the local slate beaches and piers, and with views across Cuan Sound to Seil Island.

Though the island measures only 6 miles long by 1.5 miles wide, there is plenty to keep holidaymakers entertained. Opened in 2015, the Atlantic Islands Centre is a must for the itinerary, offering tourist information and local history, showcasing local crafters and selling their work. Upstairs is a permeant heritage exhibition which holds show and tell evenings and the café there is licenced and sells delicious cakes, all made by the Isle of Luing Home Bakers.

Being an island, the sea is always very close to hand and both fishing and wildlife boat trips can be arranged from Cullipool Harbour. Depending on the weather, the Isle of Luing Coastal Rowing club also offer beginners rowing sessions (donation required) aboard their Shetland skiffs Virda and Hinba.

A circular walk of roughly 3.5 miles takes in the island’s quiet coastline and what remains of the slate quarrying industry. For the adventurous walker, one lap of the island equates to just over 15 miles. An evening stroll around Cullipool is also a must as the village is famous for breath-taking sunsets. For those who prefer a faster pace, bike hire is available from Luing Bike Hire.

Ferries regularly leave Luing for the neighbouring Seil Island which offers easy access back to mainland Scotland via the Clachan Bridge (Bridge over the Atlantic.) Once there Oban, the seafood capital of Scotland is only a 40 minute drive.
