A Little Gem in The West Highlands, Argyll Inveraray Loch Fyne views, sleeps 4

Fairfield is a delightful, two bedroomed Edwardian cottage all on one level. It is situated on the Northern shore of Loch Fyne, has panoramic views of the loch & the surrounding hills and is ideal for doorstep walking up into the hills or along the shores of the Loch. It is also a perfect base from which to explore the West Highlands.

The cottage has been recently renovated to a high standard which successfully combines the convenience of contemporary living with the warmth and comfort of a cosy cottage. Many of the original features are retained, including high ceilings, doors and fireplaces. Whatever the weather or time of year, the wood burning stove in the sitting room (an addition to the central heating) ensures the cottage remains warm, inviting and very welcoming after a day on the hills.
The cottage has been furnished with a fine eye to detail, from the restful/understated colour on the walls (Farrow and Ball), to comfortable beds, fine linen and soft furnishings which reflect the Highlands.
There is a local village store/post office within five minutes walking distance where you can buy newspapers, eggs milk bread etc. The nearest supermarket is in Inveraray.

The area is well known for its fine food and produce with Loch Fyne Oyster Bar and Inverawe Smokery being close by (around 45 minutes by car).
Furnace is only six miles from Inveraray. With the famous Inveraray Castle and Jail it's a “must do” visit”. The Loch Fyne Hotel -on the outskirts of Inveraray, offers a great Spa day if the weather is inclement.

Lochgilphead, Crinan Canal, Kilmartin Glen and Oban (the Gateway to the Isles) are all within 20-60 minutes drive. Taking a ferry to Mull and/or Iona ( Iona Abbey) makes for a fabulous day out.


A home from home with a multitude of things to fill at least a week, Fairfield is a wonderful place in which to unwind, relax and explore the immediate countryside or further afield.

Haste ye back!

A stunning getaway
Travelled with my hubby and our 2 young girls. The cottage is in a peaceful location with a pebble shore just 2 minutes walk along the road. Every room is beautifully decorated and the sun room and log burner give the perfect touch. We stayed for 4 nights and didn't want to leave. Hope to return soon

Great early winter break
Great cottage - photos don’t do it justice. Well supplied kitchen with everything you could need or want. Cosy and comfortable lounge, wood burner was lovely and all the tv and internet worked perfectly making it a great hideaway even in poor weather. Comfy bedroom with electric blankets - perfect for lazy winter mornings.

Inveraray stay
We loved our stay in Furnace (Inveraray area)! The guest house was very nice and cozy - we loved staying there and it was great access to all of the area. One of our favorite things was having tea in the morning and looking out on all of our 'neighbors' (the sheep) - even naming a few of them! The weather was not exactly cooperative - but then again it was expected - but the house was a real bright spot in our stay and we would love to come back and visit again. Thanks again

Well equipped house with peaceful views
We stayed for a week for our family summer holiday. The house had everything we needed plus comfy beds and lovely views from the garden. It is a short drive to Inveraray which has a Co-op plus a nice cafe called Brambles and gift shops. The jail is good and the castle really nice plus there is a fun walk up the hill there for great views. Further up the loch the Loch Fyne Oyster Bar is a must visit! One day we drove to Kennacraig and took the ferry to Islay for the day to visit the distilleries. Thanks for having us!

We want to live here!
My husband, adult daughter, and I fell completely in love with this wonderful, sweet house! Decorated with excellent taste, this cottage is extremely comfortable in every room. Dining and relaxing in the beautiful solarium was a special treat, even (and maybe especially) during the rainy times. Although on a well-traveled road, it was very peaceful and quiet during the day, and in particular at night. Self-check in was easy, and communication with the host quick and clear. In addition this fantastic little home, we give our heartiest recommendations to the Loch Fyne Oyster Restaurant (near Cairndow) and Inverary Castle.

Very lovely and cosy cottage
The cottage is lovely and cosy and very clean. We felt very comfortable during our 17-day stay in the cottage and enjoyed sitting in the winter garden with the beautiful view of the countryside. Very nice location on Loch Fyne, very good starting point for trips to the coast, islands and Glasgow. Very nice contact with the landlady!
