Camas Bàn Cottage
Gaelic for fair bay
Pronounced Camas Baan
SLEEPS 2-4
This cottage and adjacent byre sit right on the shores of Camas Bàn. The bay has a varied mix of grass, rock pools and sand at low tide. It is very sheltered and provides a calm spot for fishing, paddle boarding or swimming. The views overlook Loch Sunart and the Morven peninsula. With frequent visits from inquisitive seals, elusive otters, cheeky pine marten and a vast array of garden and sea birds, this bay really is very fair!
The main cottage and adjacent byre were a derelict croft last inhabited over 120 years ago. Lovingly restored, it is delightfully comfortable, complete with underfloor heating, whilst retaining its original hardy and humble character.
The main cottage, with its exposed stone walls, is mainly open plan. It has a wood-burning stove enjoyed from a comfy L-shaped sofa. There is a picturesque dining area, a well-furnished kitchen, and a double bed hidden behind delicate, white curtains. In the bathroom, there is a shower and a short bath. The Byre is seven metres from the main cottage, and houses the utility room, bunk beds and sitting room. A South West stone terrace provides a lovely outdoor seating area.
