About this property

Luxury 5* 2 bed ensuite cottage, beautifully furnished, short walk to loch side

Ross Cottage is one of the Dunmore Cottages on 120 acres of peace and tranquillity on the shores of West Loch Tarbert in South Knapdale, just seven miles from the fishing village of Tarbert on Loch Fyne.

The new owners purchased Dunmore House and Cottages in 2015/16 which sits on a beautiful estate with stunning views over West Loch Tarbert. They have an exciting vision for Dunmore over the coming years, which includes the full renovation of the self-catering cottages. Their aim is to create a fabulous destination on the West Coast of Scotland providing excellent facilities with a homely feel.

The good news is that they have already commenced the renovation of the cottages. Ross Cottage is a luxury traditional stone cottage all on one level, which has recently been renovated to a very high standard. Visit Scotland has awarded Ross Cottage 5 stars. The Cottage comprises two en suite bedrooms with underfloor heating in the en suite's. The Blue Bedroom has a walk-in shower and large bath. The white bedroom has a walk-in shower en suite. Both bedrooms have king size beds. The kitchen and dining room are fully equipped to the highest standard including dishwasher and Nespresso coffee machine. A 60" curved screen TV is in the living room with views out through the trees to the West Loch.

In the courtyard there is an outdoor table, chairs, gas BBQ and outdoor wood burning heater available for your use whilst staying at the cottage.

The estate is named after the Bronze age fort which tops the spectacular cliffs above the house. These cliffs afford breathtaking views of the West Loch and out to the islands of Gigha and to Islay, famous for its whisky making.
Dunmore Cottages are a perfect vacation retreat either to relax by the open wood fires or enjoy the many outdoor activities that are available. Located on the shores of West Loch Tarbert, and only 7 miles from the picturesque fishing village of Tarbert, guests can enjoy the many hiking trails, and abundant wildlife, take a trip to the nearby Loch Stornoway sandy beach or further afield to the lovely 6 mile long Westport beach, sample the excellent area restaurants (the award winning Kilberry Inn is only 8 miles away), visit the inner Hebridean Islands of Islay and Jura, whisky tasting at the numerous distilleries, visit the historic Kilmartin Glen, walk the beautiful gardens on the Isle of Gigha or Brodick Castle on the Island of Arran.

Tarbert sports a 9-hole golf course. Horseback riding and fishing are also available locally.

Dunmore self catering cottages are very popular for family get togethers and are ideal for children with a large play area.

Ross Cottage is dog free. Dogs are welcome in Fraser Cottage.

The cottages are available year round. Lettings are from Saturday to Saturday in June, July, August, September, Easter, Whit week, Christmas and New Year; minimum 5 nights in April, May and October; out with these minimum 4 night short breaks are available but always ask for availability by contacting Amanda either by message, email or telephone.

A Peaceful Retreat
Peace if you want it, yet plenty to do around Dunmore and north, south, east or west. Cottage is as well equipped as any we have stayed in. Very comfortable, a good 'at home' feel, and everything works. Very much recommended for exploring the general area.

5*
The theme of the 5* Ross cottage is blue and it did not disappoint - it was 5* through and through and the blue extended to the sky we encountered - in April! Facilities fantastic, location excellent and we had the weather to boot (during the day a least). Recommended to all.

My wife and I stayed at Ross cottage for a week in July. The cottage was absolutely lovely and had everything we needed for a comfortably stay and the stylish fixtures made this a real hone from home. Amanda called with us and was very knowledgeable about the area and was full of good ideas for our stay. I would have no reservation recommending this fantastic cottage for a stay in the area.

Wonderful 10 nights away
Ross cottage was a wonderful place for myself and my young family to stay. The amenities were top of the range and the property manager, Amanda, made us feel wonderfully welcome. There was great communication with the owner and the pre arrival information was incredibly helpful. The grounds and views surrounding them were stunning. We had a lovely stay across the Easter break and would thoroughly recommend a stay here.
