Airdeny Chalets

Overview

Airdeny chalets are situated in 3.5 acres with its own bluebell wood and a myriad of wildlife. Roe deer, red squirrels, pheasants, buzzards, woodpeckers and many other wild birds enjoy the peaceful, natural habitat. The chalets each enjoy their own privacy and have their own parking area. There is plenty of space for children to run around in a safe environment. An added bonus is that the chalet park is a 'midge free zone'!

Only a short distance away is Loch Etive, where you can take a boat trip to the head of the loch and watch seals and golden eagles. You can also visit Bonawe Iron Furnace, which was established in 1753 and is reputed to have made cannonballs used by Lord Nelson at the Battle of Trafalgar.

Close by is Inverawe Smokehouse, which smokes fish in the traditional way and you can also catch your own trout and visit the shop and tearoom.

Oban is 12 miles away and is the port for ferries to Mull, Iona and the other isles of the Inner Hebrides. There are excellent shops, first class restaurants, an indoor leisure centre, 18 hole golf course, all weather tennis courts and a bowling green.

Closer is Cruachan Power Station which is excavated from the heart of Ben Cruachan, where visitors are conveyed into the cavern, from the visitors' centre by the side of Loch Awe.
 

For those interested in wildlife, you can explore the marine world, through 30 close encounter glass displays at the Sea Life Centre, or take a photographic safari with Loch Visions.

The drive to Seil Island takes you through beautiful countryside; crossing the Bridge over the Atlantic. There you can visit Easdale Quarry, An Cala Garden and Folk Museum or go on a SeaFari adventure to Corryvrecken and Garvellach.

Inverary Castle, the seat of the Duke of Argyll, is only 35 minutes away, where you can also visit the award winning Inverary Courthouse and Jail complex.

If gardens are your scene, you can wander round Barguillean, Achnacloich, Ardchattan Priory, Crarae and Arduaine. For walkers, there are Inverliever, Fearnoch and Glen Nant forests. Or, for those who like a challenge, Ben Cruachan is only a short distance away and well worth the effort to reach the summit.

Or, maybe you might just want to relax, enjoy the peace and quiet, the beautiful countryside and the magnificent views.

Whichever it is, Airdeny is the perfect place to do it.
