Access from the back garden leads directly onto Machrihanish Bay with spectacular sunsets and a wealth of different seabirds literally on the doorstep. The first tee of the championship golf links course, Machrihanish, is approximately 150 yards walk away. Within the village there is also a pub/restaurant. There are many rewarding walks, including several beach walks directly from the house.
