From the owner

Auchgoyle Bay Cottage is the perfect base to explore Argyll – the Coast of the Gaels. The cottage is in the small village of Minard, just south of Inveraray and has direct views across the ever-changing panorama of Loch Fyne.

There are walks to suit all abilities from the cottage, along the shore, round the village and up into the hills to the deserted Feorlin village or a short walk away at the National Trust gardens at Crarae. The loch shore is 100 metres away, where you can launch small boats and kayaks.

Inveraray and Lochgilphead offer a range of facilities including restaurants, shops and other tourist attractions. Both are a short drive away. You can explore further afield if you wish with Oban and Kintyre within easy reach, but just as easily spend a week within a few miles of the cottage and do something different every day.

    House rules

    Please make yourselves at home in the cottage - we want you to feel relaxed and enjoy your stay.

    Please try to recycle waste in the bins provided as care for the environment is an important part of how we manage the cottage.

    And finally...changeovers can be quite hectic and if you're able to leave the cottage clean and tidy that would be a great help.
