About this property

Yewtree Cottage -The Art House

Just outside the Scottish National Park and 6mins walk from the sea is Cedarbank Studio's Yewtree Cottage.

A one bedroomed cottage full of art. We have seven artists and they all offer lessons.

Sitting in its own garden, Yewtree offers more than just an Airbnb experience.

It's an opportunity to get outside and enjoy Argyll, learn something new or just do your own thing.

It's a cosy little base - which we hope you'll enjoy calling home while you visit Argyll.​

You'll have the full use of the cottage with plenty of storage for clothes, bikes, art equipment and outdoor gear.
Free Wifi and Freeview TV, books and board games ensure there are options at the end of a day or if a day-in is planned.

Yewtree is furnished with a comfortable king sized bed or two single beds (just let me know what you would prefer when you book.) The sofa downstairs in the living room can be converted to a chaise lounge or single bed - so at a push, the cottage will accommodate three.

The kitchen has a fridge, hob, oven, toaster, kettle and microwave. There are some dried goods in the cupboard too - just in case.

There is a bath and shower at the cottage and all linen and towels are included, making your stay as easy as possible.

You are encouraged to use the garden, it's quiet and a perfect place for eating outdoors. The fenced garden keeps my dog in, but I don't know yours so make sure you're happy before just letting your precious friend out.
(It goes without saying, that you should ensure the garden is kept clean.)

A keypad entry gives complete freedom from keys. I am just a phone call away.

Situated at the end of a quiet residential lane within 6 minutes walk to shore and coffee shops in Kirn. 2 mins by car to the beach or 5 mins to Dunoon town.

Yewtree is an ideal base to explore Dunoon, Argyll and the West of Scotland. If you want to explore further then there are lots of opportunities for golf, trekking ,walking , climbing and water sports within the Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park only half an hour away.

Here at Yewtree Cottage you have an opportunity to take part in local art or outdoor pursuits - you'll find the contact numbers artists teaching oils, watercolours, ceramics and lino cutting. We can also recommended qualified and insured mountain leaders/trail cycle leaders who will happily show you the easy or maybe not so easy local trails.

The Cottage has a fenced off garden.

Situated at the end of a quiet residential lane within 6 minutes walk to shore and coffee shops in Kirn. 2 mins by car to the beach or 5 mins to Dunoon town.

- Check-in time is 3 PM - 8 PM and check out by 10 AM Pet friendly - Well behaved dogs are welcome at the cottage but not on the furniture. (£30 cleaning supplement should you choose to bring your dog.) No smoking, parties, or events please.

Classy cottage break
Beautiful wee cottage, cosy and perfectly appointed with everything we needed to be in a " home from home" for a few days. Surrounded by Anthea and Bonita's lovely sea and sky scapes and loads of books, we were able to completely chill out. Just sorry we didnt get the chance to take our wine and cheese out into the garden, as the weather wasn't on our side. Gorgeous scenery with lots of woodland or seashore walks made this an allround winner.

Lovely property that was so homely and welcoming. Warm and comfortable, just what we needed after blustery walks in the forest near by and walks along the prom. Loved it!

Absolutely lovely stay in very confortable and cosy cottage
**Highly recommended** We spent 5 days at the Yew tree cottage with out little dog. The place is very welcoming, warm and with all the most modern amenities. Bonita was charming, she shared lovely addresses and the cottage is a short from the shore where there are a few cafes and close to co-op.

2 night Dunoon stay
Lovely little cottage, very quiet location (can be a little difficult to find). Very warm welcome from the hosts who were working in the art studio. Around a one mile walk into the town centre. Would definitely recommend this place to chill out!

Relaxing Dunoon
We spent 5 nights staying in the lovely Yewtree cottage, it was ideal for us and our dog. The garden was secure and there was always a sunny spot to sit and relax. There are lots of areas nearby for long walks. You can get to the promenade within a 5 minute walk from the cottage. Would highly recommend
