National Geographic survey top 10 most beautiful adventure destinations in the world! This cottage has been lovingly renovated to a high standard and recently repainted with great appliances, heating, bathrooms and lovely fabrics and colours making it incredibly warm and comfortable. The views are southerly over the sea and the situation is absolutely stunning and extremely desirable. The cottage is available to rent directly from the owner and it is much more of a 'home' than a 'rental cottage' filled with the comforts you would expect. A short shared driveway leads you up to a small gate through which you will find Kildavannan Schoolhouse and garden. The downstairs consists of a large living area with a window seat, television (freeview not sky! ) and a working fireplace. Fabrics such as colefax and fowler adorn the cushions, blinds and window seat and a handmade leather chair sits beside a very large sofa which will comfortably seat 6 adults. There is a conservatory with more beautiful views that seats four comfortably and can get extremely warm in the daytime. Dark terracotta tiles cover the kitchen floor and new appliances such as separate clothes washer and dryer, dishwasher, large fridge freezer and anything you would sensibly require for a kitchen is available. There is plenty of cutlery there are plates, glasses, mugs, dishes and cooking utensils also plastic plates and a few cups for kids. Kettle, toaster etc... There is a large kitchen table covered by an oil tablecloth that easily seats 6 and has additional leaves to seat 12 (it's definitely a push but I have done it before!) There are three bedrooms. Downstairs a double bedroom with en suite shower and loo. This bedroom has views over the garden and the sea beyond. Upstairs is the master bedroom which is beautiful and has a cupboard and dressing table with views over the sea. The third bedroom has been designed with smaller people in mind. 2 single beds with two truckle beds underneath. This means that you can fit 4 kids (or adults!) in but don't expect to see much of the floor. We tend to roll the truckle beds back underneath in the morning. These two bedrooms share a bathroom, loo on the first floor. It has a lovely bath (keep an eye on it as it is a little slow at filling) with a floor that you can warm up before you go in! And anyone can just pop downstairs to use the other bathroom.. details here. There is a large shower and loo downstairs opposite the front door which we use more often than the bath as it's great for rinsing people off once they have returned from the beach or days adventures. I wanted to ensure that this quiet secluded cottage was as inviting in the evening as in the daytime. I have bought beautiful new beds with very good quality mattresses and pillows, duvets and bedding so that you will want to sleep in forever! There are many things to do on the Island. I find that even after 2 weeks I have done something different with the kids every day. From the many walks and adventures, the local cinema, hiring boat for a day trip, swimming, snorkelling exploring, bike riding, trips to other nearby islands. Mount Stuart, gardens, castle and a thriving local music scene. Many things for young and old, romantics and explorers alike. You can be as busy or as relaxed as you like. HISTORY OF THE ISLAND The Isle of Bute lies in Scotland’s Firth of Clyde, tucked into the spectacular sea lochs of southern Argyll. 15 miles long by approximately 4 miles wide Bute is less than two hours from the city of Glasgow. The island was a popular Victorian seaside destination, when the main town of Rothesay would be bustling with trippers who had come Tourist License / Licencia de turismo N °: 230918-000848
