About this cottage rental

Set in a secluded sunny corner, the Walled Garden Cottages are within the walls of the old Melfort Estate walled garden and approximately 500 yards from the Inner Village.

The Walled Garden has 10 “mews style” two-bedroom cottages and one two-bedroom first floor apartment with each cottage enjoying views over the beautiful gardens and overlooking Loch Melfort to the South . There are plenty of car parking spaces at the rear of the building, with car parking for visitors provided immediately outside the garden entrance. A small leisure area is situated in the centre of the building which houses a sauna and games room with table tennis, snooker and darts – there is also a small laundry, public phone and communal deep freeze.

Entrance to each cottage is at the rear of the building, through the hall which has a drying/coat storage area. Leading from the hall is the open-plan sitting room, dining area and kitchen, shower room with large walk-in shower, and the master bedroom with en-suite bathroom. Stairs lead to the mezzanine balcony/games, sleeping area and first floor twin bedroom.

Each cottage has its own private patio opening from the dining area, and onto the communal gardens.

    The setting is idyllic in lovely peaceful surroundings, nature all around. The cottage is large, airy and bright and everything you could need was provided. Although quite a distance from Oban, the main road was pretty quiet and a pleasant drive. The pool was an added bonus, but the sauna wasn't working. We were there on the hottest weekend of the year, so didn't need the sauna.

    A Magical Week at Melfort Village
    A Magical Week at Melfort Village
    We spent a full week in the comfort of Melfort Village. Walled Garden Mews No.9 was extremely comfortable for the four of us. We would not hesitate to return for a second holiday there. The apartment was well equipped and very roomy with a wonderful view down to the loch. WiFi in the Walled Garden Mews was excellent. There is so much to see and do in this beautiful part of the world. The scenery is outstanding and the bush walking on the mainland and the nearby islands is superb. Nearby Oban has some terrific places for eating, drinking and shopping. The restaurant just up the road at Loch Melfort Hotel is not to be missed for a special occasion. If you are in the Village on a Monday morning and want to know where to go, what to do, and where’s the best eating, check out Olwyn’s Introduction to the Area talk. (I promise, not one mention of Buy Our Timeshare!) Olwyn covers the area from Campbeltown in the south (and the nearby justly famous Muneroy Cafe with its fabulous cakes) to Ben Nevis in the north. Like all the staff at Melfort Village, Olwyn is welcoming and generous with her time and knowledge. Highlights besides the wonderful walks were the Three Island Trip on the ferries (Mull, Iona and Staffa); a sea eagle, seal, dolphin, deer spotting trip in a small boat; and a trip INTO the mountain to see the Cruachan Power Station. Tips: You really need a car to stay at the Melfort Village. Some mobile phones providers will have no coverage in the Village (eg. 3) but the Walled Garden Mews supported WiFi based calls. You may not be able to get WiFi in other parts of the Village, including Reception. We would love to go back!

    Another amazing stay!

    We had a fantastic fortnight first at Walled Garden 11 and then Walled Garden 9. Both were immaculately clean on arrival. We have stayed at Melfort Village for many years and always have a great time and find something new to do we haven't done before. Hired the kids some bikes which was great, plenty of tennis and swimming. Wonderful massages and treatments from the lovely Annie and excellent friendly help and warm welcome from all of the staff in the reception who go out of their way to help! Had a brilliant day visit to nearby Easdale Island where our teenage kids enjoyed some wild swimming at the old slate quarry pools, which is well worth the visit. We will be back soon!

    We are members at Melfort of Stables West. We were pleasantly surprised how well appointed the Walled Garden was. The one we were in had fantastic views down the loch and over surrounding hills. It’s lovely to sit outside for breakfast with such a fantastic view. Friends stayed the first half of the week and loved everything about the property and the village itself. Would certainly be happy to stay in The Mews in the spring to Autumn . They are hoping to log fires in all the Mews over time. (2 already have)

    Our recent visit was our first but will NOT be our last!. The accommodation was excellent and all of the activities like tennis, golf, basketball were all free, which was a nice suprise. Even the two well equipped games rooms, swimming pool and full size snooker table were free. Staff were friendly and helpful. Even if the weather isn't great there is so much to see around oban that you won't be bored. All round it was a great stay and we are already looking to book again for the summer.

    The walled garden is beautiful. There were a few surprises like paying separately for electric and no close care for breakfast. It is a little remote but I would stay again because I would be better prepared. I wouldn't drive there after dark. Stay by the airport and rent the car in the morning. The drive is beautiful and you will enjoy your stay so much more. You definitely need a car. The bus is nice but you need a car to get to the bus stop. The rooms are very cozy and the view is breathtaking.. The people are friendly even the guests. We really enjoyed our stay after we got settled in.
