Nearby, the magnificent woodland gardens at Benmore Botanic Gardens are well worth a visit while the town of Dunoon is within easy reach and has a good selection of shops, pubs and restaurants.

Known as Argyll’s secret coast the Cowal Peninsula is tucked away in a small corner of Argyll on the west coast of Scotland. Bordered by Loch Fyne and the Kyles of Bute, it’s an area of stunning natural beauty, with hills, glens, rugged coastlines, white beaches, clear waters and ancient forests.
Argyll’s secret coast, is packed with places to visit and things to do, and sailors, walkers, cyclists and artists are all drawn to this area for its natural beauty. Explore the forests and coastline by foot, bike, kayak or boat. Abundant with wildlife with deer, buzzards, otters, golden eagles, red squirrels and even, if you’re very lucky, basking sharks while you are out and about. The whole area is steeped in Highland history and dotted with ruins, castles and ancient sites. A short drive takes you to Portavadie with its marina and the ferry to Tarbert where you can explore the Kintyre Peninsula with ferries to the islands of Islay, Jura and Arran.

An absolutely brilliant stay at Fern Cottage. A lovely cosy cottage with everything we needed, in a spectacular location right on Loch Long. Very friendly, helpful owners. A lovely, quiet village with a great pub, and woodland and lochside walks from the door. Larger shops and supermarkets 10 miles away in Dunoon. You can access the village entirely by road via Loch Fyne (a lovely drive) but we cut an hour off our return journey by catching the ferry from Dunoon for £35.

We had an amazing week in this lovely cottage. The accommodation was cozy, comfortable and very clean, with everything we needed for a great week. The wood burning stove was perfect for warming up after cold, wet walks! The location was stunning, with ever-changing views over the water and we loved being able to swim in the loch every day. There are beautiful walks from the cottage, and many other stunning places to walk and swim near by. We hope to be back at some point!

My daughter and I returned home yesterday after a wonderful 5 day break at Fern Cottage. As we are approaching Christmas, the cottage was decorated for us with a Christmas tree in the lounge and one in the dining room adding a very cosy and festive feel for us. The cottage is decorated to a very high standard with a very well equipped kitchen. Good garden front and back for my little dog. The surrounding walks are all on the doorstep and a very friendly hotel for meals just a five minute walk away. I could not fault this lovely cottage and would certainly return. It is one that I would certainly recommend.
