Introduction

Secluded location

Built originally, in 1843, as a holiday retreat for an affluent Glasgow glass merchant, the house still maintains many of it’s original features.

We pride ourselves on creating a hospitable home from home atmosphere with the emphasis placed on relaxation and comfort.

Abbot’s Brae is a Victorian Country House in an idyllic setting offering a warm welcome, yet is only a short ferry crossing and seven miles from the motorway network of Great Britain.

The grounds of Abbot’s Brae plays host to frequent visits of roe deer, red squirrels and an abundance of birdlife. Directly accessible from the garden is the quaintly named Morag’s Fairy Glen. A number of meandering waterfalls make it ideal for a leisurely stroll.

The Cowal Peninsula, the Gateway to the Highlands is blessed with lavish land and seascapes and few areas can match it for it’s range of leisure opportunities; such as rambling, sailing, fishing, hill-walking, boat trips, historical sites, pony-trekking and golf. We will be happy to assist in arranging any of these activities.

Abbot’s Brae is perfectly located for exploring this beautiful area and we look forward to sharing our home with you.
