Linnhe Apartment

This delightful ground floor apartment in the heart of the Scottish West Highlands is set against a breathtaking backdrop that includes majestic mountains, rivers and lochs, making it a great location for a romantic getaway. Despite the property’s peaceful location, it is situated within a mile of the small villages of Duror and Kentallen, so the village shop is not far away. Whatever the season, there is a vast range of outdoor activities on offer, from golf and cycling in the summer to skiing and hiking in the winter, plus many more. Keen mountaineers will be pleased to know that Ben Nevis, the UK’s highest peak, is only 27 miles away and for Munro-baggers, Ben Sgulaird is only 17 miles away. This property is also close to the popular and picturesque towns of Glencoe (10 miles), Fort William (19.5 miles) and Oban (25 miles) which are all set amongst some of Britain’s most spectacular scenery.

One of three self-contained properties in this 19th Century house, this apartment is located on the ground floor. This well-presented apartment has an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, but they are separated by archways, creating a sense of space. The lounge has impressive views from the large windows, but of an evening, you can pull the curtains and sink into the comfortable sofas. The dining area has ample seating for two guests and the modern kitchen is well-equipped. Moving into the king-size bedroom (can be made up as two twins on request), you will find yet more views of the delightful countryside, whilst the modern, white bathroom completes the accommodation.

Outside, there is dining furniture in the extensive grounds, which you share with guests in the other properties, so that you can sit and soak up the tranquillity and views of the surrounding countryside. You are also welcome to wander around and enjoy the beautiful garden.

The villages of Duror and Kentallen are not far from the Argyll Coastal Route from Balluchulish in the north and Oban in the south. Located close to the shores of the breathtaking Loch Linnhe, this property offers guests the chance to take part in a number of activities, such as kayaking, fishing and sailing. The area's wildlife, such as seals, porpoises and golden eagles, in addition to its magnificent scenery and sunsets makes it popular with photographers.

The Kentallen to Ballachulish cycle path, which is part of the National Cycle Network, is great if you're keen cyclists, or if you're looking for something more leisurely, the pebble beach of Cuil Bay is only a short stroll away (1.2 miles) and the views of the mountains are spectacular. To see more of the sea loch, you can take a cruise and enjoy the commentary. Castle Stalker (6.5 miles), a 15th century keep standing proud on its tidal islet in Loch Linnhe, is perfect for a touch of history and beauty, but visits are limited and should be pre-booked.

If you become enamoured with gorgeous Glencoe, make your way to the Highlands Titles Nature Reserve (1.5 miles) to become a Laird, Lord or Lady of Glencoe by bagging yourself a small piece of land as a souvenir and helping to preserve this special place which is home to lots of wildlife from deer to pine martens.
