Stunning Country Setting!

The Farmhouse is situated in beautiful setting on a large working sheep farm in one of the most spectacular landscapes on the West Coast of Scotland. Super scenic hiking on the property with long distance views from the higher elevations. Great half day or day trip excursions within a few miles from the property!

Stunning views of the loch in a cozy Farmhouse

We stayed at Finchairn Cottage with a large family group over Christmas and it could not have been better. The house is very well equipped for a large group, the kitchen has everything, including 3 ovens, perfect to manage a Christmas celebration meal. The walks all around on the estate are stunning. Our weather was mixed but really wonderful on the last day! The house is very well insulated and has great heating and cozy wood burning stoves in the living room and the room.

A wonderful place and time.

We had brilliant stay at Finchairn Farmhouse. The house was snuggly warm and there was tons of living space. The children really enjoyed the table tennis and the adults enjoyed the walks direct from the house. Fantastic views, silence and tranquility. We all slept well as the beds were good quality and v comfy. The hosts were welcoming and helpful. We will be returning.

Perfect, authentic Scotland; historic yet modern!

Finchairn Farmhouse has historic charm, beautiful furnishings, and modern amenities. Our extended family of 10 from the suburban Chicago area enjoyed our stay on this working farm. The kids enjoyed watching the sheep get sheared, fishing, and hiking around the property. There were even ruins from a small castle on the property. It is remote enough to make you feel that you are away from life's worries but close enough to villages and cities for restaurants, shopping, and sight-seeing including a day trip to Isle of Mull. Angus and Willa were perfect hosts. Angus came to tell us about the property the morning after we arrived and was prompt when we needed anything. A picture of my grandkids on the lawn of Finchairn is my lock screen on my phone reminding me of our wonderful vacation at Ederline Estates.

About the host

Hosted by Willa Wilson

I was born in Lochgilphead and have spent a large part of my childhood in Argyll. I am married to Angus and have three children. We took over the estate from my father in 2003. It is a fantastic way of life which we love to share with our guests and help them to see the best of the area. There is too much to do and see in a week but once you have been you will want to return!

Why they chose this property

I took over the estate from my father ten years ago and count myself so lucky to have the opportunity to care for the cottages and farming business in the most stunning part of the world. A perfect retreat to get away from the busy life that most of us lead. Ederline is a tonic to be consumed regardless of season.
