Located in the picturesque town of Oban, Argyll, Scotland, this enchanting baronial apartment offers a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Known as 'Sea Meadow,' the property boasts stunning views that capture the essence of the west coast's natural beauty. Oban, often referred to as the 'Gateway to the Isles,' is a vibrant hub of culture and festivities, hosting numerous events that feature traditional bagpipers, Highland dancers, and musicians from around the globe. Visitors can embark on daily boat trips to explore nearby islands, where they may encounter local wildlife, including seals and dolphins, while ferries provide convenient access to Mull and other Inner Hebrides destinations.
The apartment itself is designed to showcase the grandeur and romance of Scottish architecture, featuring an open-plan lounge, kitchen, and dining area that is both spacious and inviting. The high ceilings, decorative cornicing, and elegant oak flooring create an atmosphere of refined comfort. The state-of-the-art kitchen allows guests to prepare exquisite local seafood, which can be enjoyed in the turreted dining room that offers breathtaking sunset views over Kerrera and Oban Bay. As evening descends, the open fire becomes a cozy focal point, perfect for sharing stories of the day's adventures or planning future excursions while savoring a fine Islay malt.
Accommodations in the apartment are equally impressive, with a master king-size bedroom featuring an en suite bathroom complete with a walk-in shower. The second king-size bedroom, once an orangery, benefits from tall windows that frame the stunning landscape, ensuring that guests can wake up to beautiful views. A conveniently located shower room adds to the comfort and functionality of the space, making it ideal for families or groups of friends. Each room is thoughtfully designed to enhance the overall experience of relaxation and enjoyment during your stay.
Outside, the property continues to impress with its small, private terraced garden, accessible via French doors that invite the beauty of the outdoors in. Guests can meander down the steps to the communal garden, which is protected by a castellated sea wall, providing a serene setting to appreciate the raw beauty of Scotland's coastline. This exquisite apartment not only serves as a luxurious retreat but also as a gateway to explore the rich history and breathtaking scenery that make this region of Scotland truly unforgettable.
