 The Lookout
Campbeltown, Argyll.,United Kingdom
In a superb, secluded location by the sea on a 160-acre private island, these three unique cottages enjoy stunning views. Otter and Island Cottages are an adjoining pair of cosy and spacious lighthouse keepers' cottages (the lighthouse is now automatic), while The Lookout is a former wartime lookout post situated 100 yards away from the lighthouse enclosure. This cottage has an extra sitting-room and sun terrace, formed from the original lookout, with superb long-distance views from windows all around. Otter and Island Cottages share a walled enclosure with the neighbouring caretaker, while The Lookout has its own area of lawn. Set at the northern tip of Davaar Island, they are connected to the mainland by a causeway, revealed by the sea for 6 hours at low tide. On arrival and departure, and for arranged shopping trips, visitors will be ferried by Landrover across the causeway (leaving their cars at the quayside). Once on the island, the mainland is just 30 minutes across the causeway, and Campbeltown, with good shops and restaurants, is a further 2 miles by car. The island's moorland, hills and rocky shore are home to a wealth of wildlife - dolphins, basking sharks, otters, seals and sea-birds are regular visitors, and even the occasional golden eagle may be seen. There is glorious walking and many picnic spots. Locally there is good fishing, riding, sailing and golf.
Cosy living/dining-room with wood-burning stove and farmhouse-style kitchen area. Double bedroom (5ftbed) with en-suite shower room/W.C. First floor: Extra sitting-room and sun terrace.
