“Balinakill Country House” is a remarkable Victorian Age manor built in the 1890’s, cradled in the peace and seclusion of some of Scotland’s finest Highland countryside and overlooking the hills to the Sound of Jura and Islay beyond.
Offering a vast range of outdoor pursuits, this majestic country residence is within easy reach of the glorious Argyll forests and parklands, providing wonderful scenic trails, for leisurely walks, trekking and cycling as well as fascinating boat trips over one of the largest whirlpools in the world. Guests can enjoy stunning views across crystal clear waters to islands large and small, wonderful sunsets, waterfalls and the seasonal flowering of the extraordinary natural flora and fauna.
Indeed, there are miles of golden sandy beaches, fascinating standing stones and other remains dating back to the Neolithic times, and other delightful leisure activities to enjoy such as seal watching at Ronachan Point and the lively harbour at Tarbert.
Guestrooms are wonderfully spacious and airy, warm and inviting, tastefully appointed with rich, quality furnishings. The lovingly prepared meals feature organically grown as well as fresh local produce and homemade breads, pastries and sauces to enchant and inspire the most discriminating connoisseur.
