Aird House is a high quality 4 star, sleeping up to 6 guests in 4 bedrooms. A private garden with stunning views to Mull, Scarba and Jura can be enjoyed while watching the day go by, or the setting of incredible sunsets. A fully equipped kitchen/diner, lounge with wood burning stove, with special touches for a family holiday or a get away from reality.

A wonderful place

We have now stayed in both the house and the cottage and both are fantastic. Beautiful views and lovely accommodation.

Enjoying the log fire over Christmas was perfect.

We will definitely be back!

It was a long way from Lancashire to reach the end of the road on the Craignish peninsula but the stunning views made it all worthwhile, even after negotiating the convoy system at the Kintraw landslip and 3 gates into the farmstead.
We were greeted by Mrs Campbell when a group of inquisitive cows and their new born calves made a dash through the farm gate as we opened it. It was a chaotic and laughable welcome but only reinforced the fact that we were staying on a real working farm. The house was warm and very well equipped for a comfortable stay though we had to search the internet to find a manual for the microwave. We appreciated the drying room for our outdoor gear as we had a few wet days that week. We enjoyed local walks observing the birdlife, wild flowers and butterflies. We took a boat ride with Venture West from Crinan harbour on a beautiful day to the Corrievreckan whirlpool and also saw White Tailed Eagles on their nests and seabirds. On a day of low cloud we visited the Kilmartin Museum which was a revelation. After learning about the ancient cultures of Kilmartin Glen we then searched out the many historic remains over the rest of the week as we planned our walks. On another beautiful day we visited Arduaine Gardens and enjoyed the excellent cafe in the Loch Melfort hotel. The walk from “pub to pub” (Galley of Lorne in Ardfern to Lord of the Isles in Craobh Haven) was a disappointment as the pub, cafe and shop in Craobh Haven were all closed on Tuesday! Despite its small size the Ardfern shop is excellent and the staff very friendly and helpful. Our reason for coming to this part of Argyll was to visit the Beaver sanctuary in Knapdale. We were delighted to see a beaver on the bookable Wednesday walk from the Visitor Centre. The staff are very enthusiastic and informative and on their recommendation we revisited the hide on Loch Barnluasgan the following calm and sunny evening and again saw one of the original beaver family. We also took the opportunity to visit the Taynish woodland reserve and after 25 years to revisit Tayvallich Inn and enjoy an excellent fish supper.
For those who enjoy nature and the outdoors a stay at Aird House will be a delight - whatever the weather!

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Aird house, every need taken into consideration, the quality of bedding to crockery second to none throughout, heating and comfort all well considered, if we could mirror the house elsewhere holidays would be equal as through previous experience this has not been the case so was lovely to experience excellent value for money, cleanliness, good quality and lovely hosts and surroundings. Thank you !

Great stay. Marked three for condition as the hot bath tap didn’t always run properly and some of the quilts were “lumpy”. These wouldn’t stop us coming again. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, thank you.

Alison replied more than 1 year ago
Thank you for your comments. It was unfortunate that you only told us about the hot tap on Saturday as you left. If you had told us when it first happened we would have tired our best to have it repaired for you. With regards the lumpy duvets we will investigate.

We have been returning to Aird cottage for many years, it is so lovely. Amazing views over Jura, Scarba and Mull. Can see seals and deer within walking distance from the cottage, and plenty of places to visit in the surrounding area.
The cottage itself is clean, cosy and comfortable, with welcoming hosts.

This was our second visit to Aird House in the space of nine months and the fact that we returned so soon says it all. Aird House is positioned in a very stunning location and is wonderful place to be if you are interested in wildlife. From Aird House, or very near to it, we saw Otters, Golden Eagle, Eider Ducks, Gannets, Great Northern Diver etc. Further afield in Knapdale we went on a walk with a warden and saw Beavers close up. Alison and Malcolm were fine hosts and we're sure that we will be back again.

An amazing location with spectacular views. We’ve just returned from a wonderful break at Aird House, we came with 3 of our children 18 -13 yrs. We brought our bikes and cycled over to the other side of the peninsula. We also had Kayaks and had a great day paddling about getting to see some of the local seals. Oban isn’t far so we took the opportunity to visit Mull for the day. There’s no shortage of things to do or just to relax and soak up the views. Thanks Alison and Malcolm for making us feel so welcome.

Aird House is a very well equipped and spacious house for six people. From the house and garden you can see the Paps of Jura to the south, the mountains on Mull to he north and right in front of you are the northern tip of Jura, the Corryvreckan Whirlpool and Scarba - it's mind-blowing. The sunsets are magnificent and whatever the weather, it is certainly atmospheric. There is a lovely walk from the house around the end of the Craignish Peninsula with the chance of seeing plenty of wildlife including otters and seals. This was our first visit to Aird House and it definitely won't be our last.

What a beautiful location with stunning views of the ocean and islands, beautiful sunsets and rich with bird song and marine wildlife ( seals, otters and even minke whales). The property is well equipped and was spotlessly clean. Alison the host was very welcoming and friendly. Our stay was the perfect tonic after the COVID-19 lockdown and stresses. Hopefully we will be back for another stay.

We (mum, dad and four kids aged 10, 8, 5 and 2) had the best week at Aird Farm in a truly exceptional holiday home.

The farm and land is stunning, we had grand plans to base ourselves here and go driving out to see other sights each day but ended up only leaving the farm once, and that was the most disappointing day of our trip.

We walked miles each day exploring in every direction and seen some beautiful wildlife from field mice to deer and horses on land and seals, otter and dolphins near the shore.

The hosts were wonderful, making sure the kids were having a great time and we had everything we needed, I can't speak more highly of them, a highlight for my son was going out with Malcolm on his Polaris driving through the farm track.

There is a great wee local store about 3 miles from the property which offers everything from fresh butchers meat to a good selection of wine.

The real gem of the holiday however is the cottage, a real home away from home, actually my wife says she wishes our house felt as homely as this!

It was warm and inviting and had everything we could possible need, washing machine, dryer, log burner etc, and all supplies needed to use them were generously provided. For me the most desirable part of the cottage was the quality throughout, mattresses, duvets, linen, towels etc were all high end that really made a difference. So many holiday lets look great on the surface but don't have the nice touches Aird Farm provides.

All our future holiday homes will unfairly be judged against this one, the bar has been set very high and we look forward to visiting again in the future.

Glancing through the Guest Book- many families have been drawn back to Aird House for multiple revisits....and I can see us doing likewise.
The location is stunning- with wonderful views across to the Islands. It feels remote and yet is very well positioned to explore mid Argyle.
The Farmhouse itself is very well equipped and homely- the kind of place you would still enjoy in the depths of winter with a roaring fire.
Alison and Malcolm are lovely people- very welcoming, generous and helpful.

What can I say? One of the most beautiful places we have ever had the pleasure to stay in. From the minute we arrived to a clean, spacious very welcoming Farm House to the gift of fresh eggs laid by the farm hens, the homemade fruit loaf (and the rather lovely bottle of wine!!!), we truly were in awe of the fantastic views from this gem of a find. It's abit of a journey , tricky to find - but soooo worth it. Looking forward to visiting again in the New Year.

Previously a farmhouse the accommodation offers everything you need for a comfortable self-catering holiday for up to six. It was very warm, the kitchen was modern, there was a separate downstairs toilet and all was immaculately clean. The owner and family were very friendly (even bringing the new puppy over for my seven year old granddaughter to see) - and greeted us with wine, eggs and homebaked fruitcake. Could not have been better.

What a wonderful place to get away from it all. The house contains everything you could wish for. We had a great time, it was our first visit but I'm sure it will not be our last. A big 'Thank You' to Alison and Malcolm for sharing such a gem.

We spent a week in July 2018 at Aird House. The location is spectacular, and my kids (6, 8 and 10) loved it! It is a fairly remote location, not in the absolute sense but relatively. 6 km down a single track road from Ardfern, no other neigbors but the farm, and a view on an uninhabited landscape. My kids liked the animals (cows, sheep, a horse, a cat, geese, chickens etc.) a lot. That, and the sea on your doorstep. My wife and I enjoed the views on Jura and Scarba, the atlantic ocean, and the total peace and quiet. At night there are no lights(!) to see, fairly special in western Europe. The craignish peninsula is nice enough, and a bit further out there is plenty enough to see and do. If you are not a lover of the outdoors- don't bother. If you are this is a very, very nice place to be. Comfortable enough (4 bedrooms !) and practicable as well. The hosts are very nice people indeed - they are there if you need them, and won't bother you at all if you don't.

I can empathically recommend this place to a family that wants to spend some time together, away from it all, with nature.

Aird House was a lovely, comfortable and spacious house to stay in with fabulous views. We enjoyed the peace and quiet of the location, seeing the farm animals and other wildlife, and being able to walk in all directions from the house on the suggested walks with route-maps provided.

We have been visiting this cottage for ten years and always have a good time. It is very peaceful and has fantastic views over Jura and Scarba, and along to Mull. There are many places to walk in the local area, and plenty of wildlife. It sleeps six very comfortably.

We've been many times over the years, and the house gets better every time. The location is stunning, with beautiful views. It's secluded, but not too far from a good pub, grocery shop, and cafe. Just need sensible shoes, and transport for the single-track roads.

Aird House is a comfortable, well equipped, warm, spotlessly clean house on a working farm at the end of the single track road which runs downs the Craignish Peninsula from the village of Ardfern in Argyll. It is close to the shore and the ever changing view (depending on the weather) to the islands of Scarba and Jura and the Gulf of Corryvreckan will stay with your long after you have left. Reading the visitor's book you discover that many people return again and again to this property and I would say that it has a lot to do with feeling at home from the moment you arrive. The wine, eggs, flowers and awesome fruit loaf make for a welcoming personal touch from friendly but unobtrusive owners.

This area is a nature lover's paradise and excellent for cycling and sea kayaking. Otters can be seen from the house and the variety of birds in the area in fantastic. All in all, a special place...

Wow what a place, from the 4 mile drive off the main road through a lovely village, past yachts and a single track road to the end of the island, there was Aird House in an elevated position with panoramic amazing views. The pictures don't do it justice, the views are breathtaking. The house itself was very warm and comfortable, had everything we needed, it was very clean with no sign of wear and tear, it's obviously meticulously looked after. The owners have their own house who own a working farm on the same land but they are not intrusive at all, in fact we didn't see them at all except on the first day as we drove up the drive and they were moving their cows and the last day when we were packing the car to ensure everything was OK. We couldn't ask for more, the remote location was absolutely perfect with a village shop, pub/restaurant 3.5 miles down the track. We are cyclists and enjoyed the huge amount of sustrans cycle tracks available nearby and island hopping by ferry to the Isle of Mull, we also by pure luck had amazing weather, at the end of September we were lucky to have blue skies and 17 degrees with no rain when we were out and about, of course this added to the delight but this is the UK and if you're holidaying in the UK, you need to bring gear for all weathers.
I would highly recommend Aird House, it had everything we were looking for.

Comfortable house with a welcome of home-baking, wine and eggs from the hens just over the hedge. No light pollution, tranquil, even the animals all seemed relaxed and the west coast on the doorstep. And sorry to repeat, but that view, straight out to the Corryvrecken, framed by Jura and Mull and all in-between.

A family gathering. The weather was almost tropical for four days providing wonderful views and sunsets, then changeable but not unpleasant. Plenty to do with nice walks a good local pub and the locals are very friendly and helpful. Allison and Malcolm are nice and friendly hosts without being intrusive.
A comfortable and pleasant holiday. Thank you.

Aird Farm has superative views to Jura and Scarba, and is an ideal location for rest and relaxation. There are walks from the door, and the village shop at Ardfern, 5 mins drive away, is very well stocked with a mix of luxury and basic items. Plenty to do in the area, but does involve a fair bit of car travel if exploring. Aird House itself is clean and vey well equipped. Washing-up liquid, dishwasher tabs, etc. are provided, and a welcoming cake and bottle of wine, as well as fresh flowers show the owners' thoughtfulness. Owners are on-site, are there if you need anything and hapy to have a chat about the farm, area, or anything in general, but leave you to get on with your holiday as you wish. Wi-fi is very slow and a connection a bit intermittent - but given the location is amazing it is there at all, and the whole point of a holiday here is really to get away from connections! Highly recommended.

We stayed mid may for the second time, had a fabulous holiday, house has everything we required plus that view is spectacular. Wildlife is all around, from the kitchen window we had a treat of one and a hours watching dolphins and otters. The peace and solitude is very relaxing . Malcolm and Alison very pleasant hosts. The eggs left for us had proper yellow yolks, the wine and cake were nice touches. The house is very clean and tidy, comfortable beds, bed linen crisp and fresh, all in all cannot fault our stay at Aird.
