About this property

The Malabar - a chalet that sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

The Malabar has a superb sea view through it's window wall, next to three other comfortable Chalets on Ellary Estate which are at the head of Loch Caolisport, in Argyll on the West coast of Scotland with lovely views down the Loch and direct access to a sandy beach. All have large verandas and are perfect for small young families. The large living room windows have beautiful views across the head of the loch, making them especially popular with bird watchers and anglers. (Please note the properties are near the sea and care must be taken with small children).

Ellary estates lie between Lochs Sween & Caolisport. This is the scenery which has made the West Coast of Scotland famous. The shore consists of rocky outcrops with inlets and sandy beaches, islands and islets and just cries out to be explored. The structure of the rock forms a series of large or small glens and corries which lie in the same direction making walking the hills a sheer delight. Many comment that the same fascination can be experienced on a short walk, not far from the accommodation where they are staying, as from a long expedition into the hills; although it is recommend, for anyone staying more than a few days, to head out to Corrbhan Mor which is the highest point of Ellary and Castle Sween estates to see the most beautiful countryside.

The area is one of outstanding unspoilt natural beauty and Ellary provides the perfect location for a quiet get away from it all peaceful holiday. The choice is yours whether you want a quiet unwind or to sample the wealth of outdoor pursuits on the door step to suitable abilities; the Estate has slipway facilities for small boats and the sailing is excellent Exploring the west coast is also possible with Oban about an hour or so by car to the north.
