Guests say

Innish is a spacious, well-equipped cottage in a stunning, tranquil location near Oban, offering beautiful views and easy access to scenic walks and local wildlife. Guests praise its cleanliness, comfort, and the flexibility of heating, as well as the convenience of two lounges and an Aga. The property is ideal for those seeking peace and nature, with a friendly pub nearby. Minor points include a need for improved shower storage and some driveway maintenance, but overall, visitors found it a welcoming and relaxing retreat.

Multiple reviews highlight the property as spotlessly clean and well maintained, with no negative comments regarding cleanliness.

Guests consistently praise the superb, peaceful location with stunning views, proximity to walks, wildlife, and a highly rated pub. The only minor drawback mentioned is the lack of sandy beaches nearby.

The house is described as warm, cosy, spacious, and comfortable, with large bedrooms and flexible heating. One review notes a minor issue with storage placement in a twin room, but overall comfort is highly rated.

The property is very well equipped, featuring two lounges, Sky TV, an Aga, and thoughtful kitchen supplies. Some minor suggestions include adding a shower shelf and addressing driveway potholes.

Guests appreciated the helpfulness of the owners and the provision of useful household items such as washing powder and kitchen essentials. Please note that such thoughtful touches are not guaranteed for every stay.

Innish is within just a few yards of an excellent pub and eatery, and although rural, the island is really well served for amenities. With an excellent local Store at Balvicar, plus several shops, pubs & restaurants on the island, you will not have to travel far to find a place to eat out or find something to do or explore. The Isle of Seil is one of the Slate Islands, known as the “Islands which roofed the World” and has been linked to the mainland by the Clachan Bridge (Bridge Over The Atlantic) since the late 18th century. An abundance of wild life in the area; eagles, buzzards, kestrels, otters, deer, badgers, and a friendly local community, makes it an ideal place to get away from the bustle of city life and unwind.

There are several fantastic boat trip operators nearby offering a chance to see the amazing wildlife including a high speed Rib Boat trip through the Corryvreckan whirlpools. There is a nine hole golf course on the island, charters, kayaking, diving and numerous walks. The bridge which connects the Isle of Seil to the mainland enables easy access for exploring the Oban area and mid-Argyll as well as Glencoe and Fort William. Beach 14½ miles.

    This is the 2nd time we have stayed at Innish and it is the perfect base for exploring Argyll and Bute. The house is super comfortable and very well equipped and it feels like a home from home. I definitely recommend and hope to return again sometime.

  • Confirmed Guest

    Amazing location, surrounded by natural beauty and the tranquility of the island. Fantastic walks and views, as well as access to so much more in the surrounding areas. Within 30 minutes is Oban, gateway to the islands with a bustling community of shops and restaurants. The house itself is spacious and comfortable and deeply embedded in the nature that surrounds it! The owners are really welcoming and helpful and make superb recommendations for things to see and do nearby.

    A fabulous house with everything needed for a great holiday, home from home.Lovely views right on your doorstep and absolutely stunning scenery just a few minutes walk away. Ideal base for a break away from everything The pub next door (Tigh An Trish) has fabulous food and so friendly, shame it only opens half the week this time of year!
