Make a romantic getaway for two, or a memorable country break for the family, in this characterful and versatile historical property with unbeatable views. Bright and spacious, this is a perfect base for active getaways and peaceful country retreats alike, with a wealth of bistros, sailing and horseriding opportunities all within 7 miles. The stunning views of Loch Fyne, the mountains of Mull and the rolling countryside are all on your doorstep for a taste of a real Scottish rural idyll.

Immerse yourself in the open-plan kitchen/diner/lounge area, with long windows on all sides offering different glorious elevated views.

At the end of a long day, avail yourself of the well-stocked bookshelves and read on comfy sofas by the wood burner.

Outside, enjoy a sunny private garden and soak up the mature garden spaces while boats float by on the waters. Or, you can simply enjoy a spot of al fresco dining on the decking.

This cottage was perfect. We did plenty of sight seeing but we also felt like we could rest here and enjoy the stunning view. It was hard to say goodbye to this beautiful chapel and scenery and we are planning on coming back. Thank you for creating such an inviting and comfortable space for us to recharge our batteries in. Very happy with our stay.

The views were beautiful, the area peaceful, and an abundance of wildlife- we saw red squirrels, pine martins and owls within the first 2 days! The kitchen was very well equipped and we made full use of the coffee machine! Extras, such as dishwasher tablets and washing powder, were much appreciated. You do need to be organised as there are no superRead moremarkets or petrol stations within about 45 minutes, there is a village store about 15 minutes away which is surprisingly well stocked. Hide

What a lovely conversion of the chapel, it had everything we needed and more, and was very comfortable. It easily has enough room for a family to stay without feeling cramped. There are beautiful views from the front windows, and the walk through the Otter Estate to the beach is well worth it...... especially the sight of a red squirrel on the way Read moreback. If you want somewhere away from it all, almost no traffic, just the sounds of the sheep, pheasants & birds, then this is it. Hide

Me and my partner had a lovely 5 days here! The Chapel is so spacious, full of light and the views are amazing. It felt really felt like staying in someone's home rather than just someone's house as it was so well equipped and cozy. We had a wonderful time exploring the area and loved the peace and quiet.
