Gather your loved ones and escape to this stunning Georgian family home, located within a private estate on the Knapdale Peninsula. Set over four floors with eight bedrooms to choose from, it’s a stylish yet wonderfully cosy retreat for up to 10 guests and two dogs. Nature lovers and sporting enthusiasts alike will adore the range of activities on offer close by, from trout fishing to a quiet stroll on a deserted sandy beach.
The interior of the house is designed with comfort in mind, carefully renovated to retain its original warmth and charm with a contemporary twist. Beautifully decorated with a bright colour pallet and classically furnished with antiques and artwork, there’s ample space to socialise and relax in equal measures. The atmosphere is homely and inviting, made all the more special with several crackling open fires and comfortable seating.
The elegant drawing room is a wonderful spot to unwind, warming your toes by the open fire and admiring the sea views from the window. There’s a baby grand piano for budding musicians to tap out a tune, adding to the tranquil feel. The formal dining room has enough seating for your entire party, perfect for toasting special occasions over a celebratory meal. Round off your day with after-dinner drinks and some light entertainment in the games room, challenging each other to a round of table tennis.
The lower ground floor has a second sitting room for snuggling up in front of a good film with buttery popcorn, and is home to the impressive kitchen. With a double oven and all the gadgets you need to sizzle up a storm, alongside a large table and chairs for quick lunches and simple suppers.
Climb the traditional sweeping staircase to discover four pretty bedrooms on the first floor, each one a welcome retreat after a busy day of adventures. This includes the grand master suite with an additional room attached which can be used as a dressing room, or as a single bedroom for younger guests. The connecting doors lead to a sumptuous shared bathroom complete with an irresistible bath for long soaks.
The final three bedrooms and a family bathroom are located upstairs on the second floor, each one boasting spectacular views of the surrounding landscape.
The lovely gardens are dotted with pretty trees and shrubs, offering an idyllic spot for a picnic, tantalising your taste buds with some delicious local scran. Don your walking boots and set off to explore the estate, meandering through the woodland and spying the resident wildlife. The nearby beach is less than a mile away, so pack your swimwear and wetsuits ready for hours of fun enjoying the sand and the sea.
