It benefits from stunning views over the sea and mountains beyond with spectacular sunsets. The house is located in the village of Connel with three restaurants within walking distance, train station, buses, local shop and church. Connel is five miles from the popular town of Oban offering many sea food restaurants and ferries to the islands. This season we have opened a new a self catering apartment with its own entrance, log burning stove and panaramic sea views. Ards House benifits from a large private car park opposite.
