About the host

Host profile image
Newton is such a lovely wee village, its good to be able to share it with guests. We live just up the road from the cottage so we are on hand if guests need anything while they are here.

Why they chose this property

Loch Fyne is just stunning, it is very rural peaceful with loads of great walks from your door step, the beach is less than a minute from your front door. The nearest town, Dunoon is only half an hour away or 90 minutes from Glasgow and Oban

What makes this property unique

It's quite quirky, it was an old cottage built in the 1960's, we have breathed some life into it and made it comfortable for guests, it's a perfect base for exploring all that the huge area of Argyll has to offer, then come back to a roaring fire, lovely views and very comfortable beds.
Also the garden is enclosed making it great for dogs.
