A popular activity for those staying in holiday cottages in Scotland is enjoying the local seafood. Tarbert nestles around a natural harbour on Loch Fyne - an idyllic village known as the gateway to the beautiful peninsula of Kintyre. It boasts several 'Taste of Scotland' recommended eating places, probably more so than in any other small area in Scotland and hosts a very successful seafood festival.

This farm steading, formerly part of the Stonefield Castle Estate, has been skilfully converted into attractive holiday cottages which now form part of a courtyard surrounded by 30 acres of countryside grounds. The cottages are situated on the beautiful Kintyre peninsula, 2 miles north of the picturesque harbour at Tarbert, which is popular for sailing and hosts the Scottish sailing regatta in May. There are numerous activities available around Tarbert: sample the fresh seafood caught at Loch Fyne in local restaurants, enjoy exploring nearby beaches and coves, walk all or part of the Kintyre Way, a marked walk stretching the length of the peninsula. The area is a nature lover’s paradise - red squirrels, deer, sea eagles, buzzards, otters and beavers can be spotted locally. For the energetic, windsurfing, horse riding, mountain biking and clay pigeon shooting are all available nearby. Golfers can enjoy five local courses including the Championship Course at Machrihanish near Campbeltown. Visit the islands of Islay and Arran, easily accessible, or Gigha, with white sands and shallow waters, ideal for swimming. Shops and pubs 2 miles.
Open-plan sitting/dining room with electric fire and kitchen area. Double bedroom with 5’ bed. Bathroom/WC (shower over bath).
