Ardmaddy Estate sits in a quiet, gentle corner of Argyll on the west coast of Scotland. Whilst within half an hour of the harbour town of Oban and only three hours from Glasgow, once there, you feel as though you are in a different time and space to the rest of the world.
Its quiet tranquility and the utter peace soothes the soul and rest the senses. Its open spaces and magnificent views free the mind. Surrounded by woodland, hills, moors and the sea, Ardmaddy is also a haven for wildlife – from eagles soaring above the hills, to skylarks singing their hearts out and from deer grazing on the hillsides to otters hunting by the shore – there is so much here for you to see and experience.
2nd stay at this glorious location with extended family including wheelchair user. Great for kayaking, tennis and treasure hunts in the castle grounds. Ardmaddy Gardens were a daily delight and wheelchair accessible, with care. Luing is well worth the short drive
This is our third stay as a group in this comfortable, amazingly situated cottage. We love the views straight out to the water, easy access to the water, the comfort inside and the regular sightings of sea eagles, porpoises and otters from the house itself.
We enjoyed our visit very much indeed…the location was magical. The house well furnished and maintained. We are Americans and if you have more of us staying I’d suggest providing a drip coffee machine. That and fix the toilets (they tended to run until giggled). But these are minor details that did not detract from our wonderful stay.
