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 little gem in the The Western Highlands.
The property lived up to its description- little gem. It was ideally located, comfortable , clean , pleasantly furnished and had a welcome pack of essentials which we were very grateful for. A very enjoyable week in a beautiful area with plenty to see and do. The added bonus was great weather . Would definitely recommend.

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.

A great find
We had a lovely stay, the accommodation was spotless and wonderfully presented. Lots of little extras which made it very homely. The bed heaters were much appreciated as the weather had turned cold. Will definitely stay again if we are in the area!

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

Things to consider....
Nice location, with the loch to one side and the fields to the rear , good size lounge and tv , functional kitchen , and two nice size bedrooms , however the bathroom is letting the property down , needs updating , + rad also kitchen needs rad as when we arrived the house was cold ! and the conservatory was too cold to sit in , and also general entertainment of tv/ sky etc only few channels to watch ? , so not good for winter/ xmas stay and not the best price point either / however all this aside nice area to visit

Not very dog friendly on main road and except for a fab village shop, had to drive everywhere
Said Cairnish booked it thinking walking distance to pubs and restaurants. Couch was so uncomfortable sat on dining chairs, shower ran hot n cold. Dogs not allowed anywhere and fined 50 pound if poo found in garden, crockery all chipped and frying pans unusable, disappointing!!

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!

Wrong side of the road
Back views lovely but spoilt by busy main road with heavy construction lorries. Quieter at night so didn’t interfere with sleeping. Nice light property and pretty conservatory nice for breakfast. Just found the seating and in lounge, uncomfortable as cushions too squashy and no back support. We spent more time at the house than we’d intended due to an injury. Poor picture quality on tv. Kitchen well equipped. Nice comfy beds and liked the blinds and pretty curtains for blocking light. Plenty of cupboard and wardrobe space. Could do with new Garden chairs and table. Easy parking and good access to Inveraray and sight seeing. Just about see Loch Fyne from the lounge window which was nice. More attention to cleaning the kitchen and oven which had been missed. Generally a nice house but could be more comfortable.

We’ve just returned from a lovely week away. The cottage was perfect for us - warm, cozy and comfortable, great after a day out walking or pottering about on the shores of the Loch. Definitely on our ‘ to do again but longer list’!
