The gorgeous five thatched cottages which make up Clan Cottages are sympathetically designed to integrate and blend with the surrounding landscape and are built to recreate a Celtic settlement - a perfect reflection of Scotland's past. They are situated on the the shores of Loch Nell and the River Nell, a stunning and very peaceful location within a 6 minutes drive from the town of Oban and all its amenities. Each cottage can sleep 2 - 6 visitors in luxury accommodation. The group of cottages includes a one bedroom cottage with a beautiful mezzanine lounge - perfect for honeymoon couples. There are also three 2 bedroom cottages, one which has been designed and built to suit anyone who has mobility problems, and one three bedroom cottage.
Each cottage has gas central heating throughout and a living flame gas fire in the lounge. There are flat screen TVs with Sky free satellite channels. There is also free wireless internet access available. The cottages are fully equipped to be like a home from home and we wish to cater for your every need.
Each cottage has its own individual garden area to relax in. There is a barbeque area and there are also beautiful walks around Kilmore which is steeped in history dating back to the bronze age. There is a crannog in the loch in full view of the cottages. Within walking distance there is also a neolithic chambered cairn at Dalineun which is in the field just opposite us. North and south of the cairn there is a line of ten Bronze Age cairns stretching over a mile. There are many other historic landmarks which can be found in various publications written about Oban, Kilmore and Kilbride. We have a small collection of local books which visitors can look at.
There is an abundance of wildlife in the area. There is also no light pollution, so on a clear night the night sky is amazing.
