The Shore House
The Shore House is in a fantastic position next to the sea lock and with wonderful views of the hills either side. Liz and Billy were excellent hosts. We had an excellent breakfast. No hesitation in stopping at the Shore House again.

Quiet village location in beautiful valley close to Dunoon, Argyll. Sleeps 2, pet friendly
Alison and Mark, owners/hosts are amazing. Nothing was too much for them. I don't drive. Both offered to drive to the village to the shops if I needed anything. Their beautiful cottage had everything you need. An added bonus was a log burner, coal also provided. Bottle of prossecco as a welcome gift. ...
