Frequently referred to as the 'Gateway to the Isles', Oban is a beautiful resort town on the west coast of Scotland, split into a north and south area. Spreading up the hills that surround the crescent-shaped Oban Bay, the most famous part of the town’s skyline is McCaig’s Tower which looks like an ancient colosseum and offers incredible views of the surrounding area and nearby islands. Oban is also often called the 'Seafood Capital of Scotland', so as well as the historic attractions, popular distillery and watersport activities on offer, there is also a huge range of top-rated cafes and restaurants where you can enjoy dishes focusing on ingredients plucked straight from the sea less than a mile away for your table.
A home-from-home cottage located in the village of Connel, An Cala sits at the mouth of Loch Etive and is only a 6 minute drive from Oban. Situated only yards from the sea, the living room - framed by a large, low-silled window - invites stunning views of the water, islands and mountains of the inner Hebrides right to the comfort of your armchair, while otters and seals regularly swim among the locally moored boats. With three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a wood-burning stove, underfloor heating, additional conservatory dining and well-equipped living spaces.
A luxurious holiday retreat for two in a tranquil position with lovely loch views in Melfort, Argyll within driving distance of Oban.

Sorry no pets allowed at this property - all the wildlife is right outside the door! Tourist board rating: 5 Star
