Seaview Cottage Ellenabeich

Seaview Cottage is in Ellenabeich, on the Isle of Seil. You drive out from Oban and cross the bridge onto the island. It's semi-detached. The view is the main thing. You look straight out over the water towards Mull. You can see boats going past, and sometimes seals or eagles.

It sleeps four in two bedrooms. There's one bathroom. It's got a 4 Star rating, so it's comfortable and well-equipped. There's a woodburner for cooler evenings. The garden at the back is enclosed, which is good for dogs. You can walk straight from the garden down to the slate beach.

The village is about a five minute walk. There's a small shop with a post office, a bar that does food, and a slate museum. A little ferry goes over to Easdale Island from there, which is worth a trip. The pub on Easdale does good food.

You're about 16 miles from Oban, which is handy for bigger shops or the ferry terminal if you're going over to Mull. In the other direction, you can drive up to Glencoe or Fort William in under an hour and a half.

For facilities: it's got parking, WiFi, a washing machine, a dishwasher, and a TV. Bedding and towels are included. We can provide a cot and highchair. You can bring two dogs. There's a stairgate at the top.
