Comfortable Detached House with Mountain and Meadow views

Old Tynribbie House was built in the late 18th Century and has been refurbished into a comfortable 2 storey, 4-bedroom family home.
The house is situated in the heart of the West Coast of Scotland, in the village of Appin in Argyll on the A828 opposite the Port Appin junction.
The house comprises of a comfortable living room, a large family kitchen, 3 small double rooms, a twin bedroom, a shower room and a bathroom.
On arrival you will walk through the front door into a tiled hall area. Downstairs off the hall is a small double room and a twin room and a family shower room. A wooden spiral staircase takes you to a mezzanine floor upstairs which overlooks the lounge below. Upstairs there is a small double room to the front and a second small double room to the rear with a Jack and Jill bathroom which can be used as an en-suite or dual use – which ever works best for your family.
The living room is comfortable with a leather sofa and occasional chairs and an amazing feature wall and dramatic ceiling. Also, in the living area is the main TV with Sky along with a wood burner - which is great on a cold winter’s day.
The hub of the house as got to be the kitchen; this is our favourite place to be as it becomes central to everything going on in the day. The kitchen has an iconic barn style theme which always feels warm and welcoming with a large dining table. The kitchen is fitted with everything you need including a washing machine and a dish washer. French doors from the kitchen lead to the patio area with views of the meadow and Beinn Donn. There is a large family patio style table and chairs.
Old Tynribbie House is a great central point to base yourself to visit all that Argyll, the Isles and surrounding areas have to offer. The cycle path from Oban to Fort William is right on your doorstep which makes cycling and walking a great option when spending time exploring, or why not take the 2.5 mile journey down to Port Appin where you can catch the foot passenger ferry to the lovely small island of Lismore.

* Long weekends / Short Stays can be arranged. Please email directly for availability and pricing.

Comfortable well stocked Home away from Home
The Tynribbie house was very well stocked with everything you could possibly need. Beds were very comfy and there was a bike/ walking trail right outside. We enjoyed the area which was away from the busy port of Oban which is where we bought groceries at TESCO. We golfed at the woodlands and had a wonderful dinner at Holly tree. I would recommend this as a good stop in your way to the Isle of Skye. Angela was very responsive to any questions we had.

Stay in Appin

Perfect spot
The cottage is in a beautiful location with cycle paths just outside. Loads of local walks which we all loved ( despite the rain!) The cottage itself was lovely. There is a fabulous big kitchen diner with the kitchen stocked with everything you could possibly need ( including kitchen scales) There is lots of kitchen storage including fridge and freezer space. The living room is snug and comfortable with a nice touch of some blankets. There is a wood burner but the underfloor heating meant we did not need to use this. The bedrooms are on the small size but are well set out with good storage solutions. Angela was very helpful with any questions that we had. We absolutely loved our stay and wouldn't hesitate to book again.

Perfect Scottish base
A perfect place to stay. Angela was an excellent host. The welcome basket was one of the best we’ve seen. The home is faultless and like a home from home with everything you need. Tastefully decorated and presented to a very high standard. Lots of room & outdoor space. The location is almost equidistant between Fort William & Oban. Would be a good base to explore the Highlands. Also right next to a cycle path - we used for walks to Castle Stalker. We’d definitely stay here again if visiting the region.

Fantastic house and friendly host
Angela was an amazing host. Great communication through booking and pre-arrival and very welcoming when we arrived. Fast response to the few questions we had about the property. She couldn't have been more helpful. Lovely welcome pack and really well equipped clean property - it really was like a home from home. I had brought lots of stuff with us having stayed in previous properties but Angela had thought of everything. The property was bigger than we had anticipated and the photos didn't do it justice. Great outdoor seating areas at front and back to relax and even a picnic table further out in the garden to catch the last rays of sun. She had even provided citronella candles and blankets!. Beds were super comfy and bedding clean and good quality. Awesome shower! Hairdryers, board games, jigsaws, coffee all provided. The property location was great too. It literally was right on the traffic free cycle route and lots of cycle maps and info were provided. We enjoyed cycling the 2.5 miles for a drink in the Pierhouse at Port Appin and the Creagan Inn and the 1 mile cycle to the Old Inn for a fab steak dinner - ask for a conservatory table when you book to ensure lovely views across to Castle Stalker. Only a 20-30 minute drive into Oban where you can take a ferry to Mull, Lismore etc for a day trip too. We had a fantastic stay and wouldn't hesitate to return or recommend to friends! Thank you Angela.
