Property information

I pretty cottage with a landscaped garden, patio and sun room with loch and mountain views. A wee gem. Care has been taken to make sure access is suitable for all. There is a ramp with a slight slope to a side door and then one step to enter the property. From there all rooms, except the double bedroom, are on one level so Ivybank is suitable for anyone with limited mobility. It is a pleasant 10 minute stroll to the village. Pet – Thirty pound pet charge. 1 small or medium sized dog welcome. If in doubt please check with us before booking.

Neighbourhood information

Located in the Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park. Accessed by a single-track roads with passing places, one from the top of the Rest and Be Thankful A83 and the other from the Dunoon to Inveraray A815 (via Hell’s Glen), are the villages of Lochgoilhead (six-mile) and Carrick Castle (11-miles). 50 miles from Glasgow via the A83 and A82 and 32 miles from Dunoon. Carrick Castle is 5 miles further down the road. Loch Goil is surrounded by mountains. According to a walkers’ guidebook by Tom Prentice, “Surrounded by high hills Lochgoilhead offers classic western seaboard scenery. It feels more remote than all the other areas”. The surrounding hills combine a distinct character with a level of solitude that is almost impossible among the ‘Arrochar Alps’.” Loch Goil is a deep glacial seawater fjord surrounded by high wooded hills. The sea loch’s Marine Protected status supports an array of nationally significant species from the unique Loch Goil Sea Squirt to the sea weeds, kelps and shore creatures, porpoises, dolphins, otters, and fish including the Wild Atlantic Salmon spawning in the River Goil. There is a colony of grey seals on the shore of Loch Goil. Around the loch there is a great variety of birds from the smallest bird in the UK, the Gold Crest to the largest, the Golden Eagle. In the woodlands there are deer, red squirrels, badgers, pine martens and various small mammals and amphibians. Lochgoilhead has a Post Office and small grocery store, a Costcutter mini-market (1 mile away), Bowling Green, Tennis Court, Village Hall and a Dr’s Surgery. Take to the hills on a number of marked walking trails. Hire a boat for fishing, nature watching and enjoying the views. The Drimsynie Estate local leisure centre has a 25m indoor swimming pool, indoor play area and a range of activities. 9-hole golf course. All open to the public on a pay as you go basis.
