The house is surrounded by a half-acre walled garden with three gates. This is bounded on the northeast corner by the barns, which house the Egator.

Transportation

Transport is provided in the form of a rigid tubed dinghy called Cutty which is kept on a running mooring and access is via stepping over the side of her (approx. 1m height) onto the stone beach. There is no jetty, pontoon, pier, dock etc, which is why we recommend wellies! Once on land, you have the use of an Egator electric buggy to carry luggage and shopping to the house.

Location

Located 16 miles south of the bustling harbour town of Oban on the west coast of Scotland, Torsa is within easy reach of shops, tourist attractions and only three hours drive from Glasgow. Your stay starts with a lesson in using the motorboat and electric buggy provided for your use, and help to settle you into your holiday accommodation.

Sited above the well known safe anchorage of Ardinamir Bay, it is also the perfect shore base for a sailing or motorboat holiday. The moorings can be used for guests own boats and there are ample local sites to launch canoes or kayaks from.
