Garden Cottage is a single-storey property at Bonawe House, a historic estate near Taynuilt in Argyll and Bute. The open-plan living space—featuring a wood-burning stove and patio doors—connects directly to a sitting-out area in the grounds. Two bedrooms sleep up to four guests: one has a zip-and-link super king (or twin beds on request), the other two single beds. Both bathrooms include showers and heated towel rails. The kitchen is fully equipped for self-catering, with an electric oven, hob, dishwasher, and fridge-freezer.
Everything sits on the ground floor, with space to move around easily. The cottage is surrounded by mature beech trees and semi-formal gardens shared with other on-site properties; the grounds slope down toward Loch Etive. Parking for two cars is private to the cottage, and there is an electric charging point on site. Taynuilt village is a 15-minute walk away, with shops, a café, and a golf course. Bonawe Historic Iron Furnace lies nearby. Essentials like bed linen, towels, electricity, heating, and Wi-Fi are included. Smoking is not permitted. One well-behaved pet is welcome.

What guests say
Our family of four rented one of the vacation homes at Bonawe House. The furnishings in the vacation home were excellent, and there was plenty of space. The kitchen and bathroom had been renovated and were equipped with the latest technology (induction stove!). We particularly loved the beautiful gardens on the estate, including the duck pond—lots for the children to discover! The landlords, Renate and Damon, are very friendly and extremely helpful. Communication worked really well. All in all: a wonderful week's vacation in great accommodation! We'd love to come back.

We stayed for two nights in the Garden cottage. It was beautiful, comfortable and had everything you need. The bed was incredibly comfortable with the most luxurious duvet - I had amazing sleeps. With two bedrooms and two bathrooms it was the perfect set up for my family, and our friends stayed in the Rose cottage. A great location - close to Oban. The owners were very friendly and responsive hosts - with a very detailed guest information book with any detail you might need. Highly recommend the Bonawe House!

Stayed here for 2 nights with friends. Excellent location. The property was very clean and it is very spacious. Has all the amenities which one would potentially require. The hosts are very warm and welcoming. Would love to come back to this property to stay a little longer.

Beautiful old house with holiday cottages around the courtyard set in a luscious green garden. Very friendly owners and very comfortable cottages with everything you need. Can highly recommend for both long and short stays (we stayed for two weeks!).
