A Traditional Oceanfront Haven at the Mouth of Lochead Burn

Positioned directly where the freshwater burn meets the sea, Lochead Cottage offers a quintessential argyll coast shoreside holiday cottage escape. Situated in an idyllic coastal spot on Argyll’s West Coast, this traditional three-bedroom detached home frames sweeping views down Loch Caolisport and out toward the distant peaks of the Isle of Jura.

Guests enjoy exclusive access to the vast 15,000-acre Ellary and Castle Sween estates. Explore wild rocky outcrops, hidden sandy inlets, and coastal islands, or hike inland through Lochead Glen—one of Scotland’s most picturesque valleys. Summit the heights of Corrbhan for views stretching from the Nevis Range and Loch Fyne to Kintyre, Northern Ireland, and the Isles of Jura and Scarba. For gentler days, enjoy easy coastal strolls from Balimore down to Stronefield Beach or along the estate salmon pool.
