Horseshoe Bay Chalet is a cosy and spacious chalet set in its own peaceful grounds, on the picturesque island of Kerrera, Scotland. Surrounded by stunning scenery and wildlife, the chalet boasts a beautiful beach right on its doorstep. Spend your days walking, cycling, wild swimming, fishing, bird watching, touring Western Highlands & Islands or simply just relaxing.

The chalet comfortably sleeps up to 5 people, with one king room, and one twin room with a double bunk bed (bottom double bed and single top bed). It is double glazed, well heated and is suitable for use all year round.

The fitted kitchen/dining and lounge area are open plan, with glass doors leading onto a private deck. Here you can sit and enjoy the spectacular views of the mountains and sea, while enjoying a glass of wine or a good book! The lounge area has a comfortable leather corner sofa and matching single sofa. There is a 40 inch plasma TV with an Amazon Firestick. There is unlimited wifi access throughout the chalet.

The well-equipped kitchen area has a hob/oven, fridge with small freezer, washing machine, microwave, digital radio, toaster and kettle. A full range of cooking utensils, crockery and cutlery are provided. The shower room has an electric shower, wash basin, toilet, and shower radiator.

Kerrera is known as the jewel in the Firth of Lorne. With a population of only 55 residents, the islands natural beauty and abundant wildlife make it a very popular tourist attraction. The accommodation is perfect for families, sailors, nature lovers, sea kayakers, groups of walkers, bird watchers and anyone who loves remoteness and extraordinary scenery.

The island is accessible by a short 5-minute ferry journey from Oban. The regular ferry service operates from a slip at Gallanach Road, 2 miles south of Oban along the coast road, with free car parking facilities available. You will need to leave your car here as there is a policy of residents vehicles only on the island. Visitors will be picked up from the ferry and taken to the chalet, or if you prefer you can enjoy the 20 minute scenic walk along the coast.

The busy holiday town of Oban is only a short ferry ride away with its excellent seafood restaurants and shops, as well as a cinema and leisure centre. There are a wealth of things for all the family to enjoy on land or on the sea. Known as the Gateway to the Isles, it is also perfect for exploring the inner Hebridean Isles, including Mull, Iona and Colonsey.
