Lairds
Retreat
We have acquired
an area of beautiful land in Argyll to be known as ‘The
Lairds Retreat’.
Ten
acres of gently sloping hillside by the banks of Loch
Riddon, one of Scotland’s most beautiful and unspoilt
lochs.
It
is our policy to leave the Lairds Retreat completely
untouched and allow nature to take over giving the land
a chance to generate/ regenerate.
In
doing so this may hinder access but the wildlife will
thank you for it.
If
you should wish to take a trip to the area, we have
a few suggestions as to what's on offer in the surrounding
countryside which offers opportunities for fishing,
boating, hiking, camping and walking.
For
avid caravan and camping visitors we can recommend the
Glendaruel caravan park. This quiet award winning family
run park lies within 22 acres of mature woodland.

If
Scotland is synonymous with malt whisky, the famous
'Islay Malts' are the aficionados' heart of the matter.
Islay boasts no less than eight world famous malt distilleries
and is encircled by the legendary distilleries of Ardbeg,
Bowmore, Laphroig, Lagavulin, Bruichladdich, Bunnahabhainn
and Caol Ila.
A
two hour drive from Colintraive takes you to Oban, one
of Scotland's oldest sources of single malt scotch whisky.
