Long View
Edinburgh & the Borders
Designed with socialising at its heart, find ample space inside and out at this fantastic detached house for 11 guests and four dogs. Boasting magnificent views over the splendid Loch Long, spend your days walking, hiking and biking amongst the surrounding Arrochar Alps, and your evenings soaking in the hot tub. With a super-king-size, two king-size, one twin and one triple bedroom, a variety of party make-ups are accommodated for, and with all five bedrooms being beautifully furnished for a moment of solitude when its required.
A blend of past and present, the modish, neutral tones of the interior design are brought to life by sumptuous furnishings, flashes of colour, and some quirky features creating a stylish, country home. The arts and crafts dining table and chairs, exposed beams and stable doors add a timeless quality that is echoed throughout. French doors in the lounge lead directly outside allowing the fresh air to drift in, while on chilly evenings, the open fire roars a warm welcome after a busy day, perfect for cosy movie nights on the sofa. Gather for a home-cooked meal in the dining room where French doors lead to the decked area, while the bright kitchen/diner is perfect for grabbing a quick snack as children and pups come and go as they please from the garden. A useful addition for large groups, the utility room has ample storage for wet outdoor clothes and a cosy dog bed. Upstairs, the five bedrooms are brimming with individual character and, with four bedrooms boasting an en-suite, careful consideration has been given to the privacy of those on a group holiday. The kids can play ball games and hide-and-seek in the garden as you indulge in a spot of al fresco dining on the decked area, ideal for a morning coffee or an evening BBQ. Relaxing in the bubbling hot tub for a lazy evening of stargazing is a daily event not to be missed, and for nights off cooking, potter into the village and try the friendly pubs. There is off-road parking for four cars.
