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.

    Melfort Village is in a beautiful, quiet, isolated location. It is perfect for any kind of outside activity as well as being surrounded by history and places of interest. We stayed in the Walled Garden Mews and the accommodation surpassed our expectation, it was really comfortable and homely. Thoroughly enjoyed our week and would visit again without any reservations.

    Melfort Village provided us with accommodation suitable for our group of 6 adults, 2 babies and 2 dogs. The area was good for exercising the dogs although accessing the 'beach' in the bay is not as easy as the site info suggests. The Mews accommodation was well equipped and cots and stair-gates were provided as requested. We didn't dine in the on-site restaurant but we did order a substantial carry-out dinner which was very good. On the one day when the weather was poor we had an eying meal in the nearby Loch Melfort Hotel which was also very good. The swimming pool etc was a bonus especially on the rainy day. It is a good size and there are plenty of pool 'toys' for the kids. Oban is only 30 minutes drive from mel fort and is also worth a visit.

    The walled garden is a home away from home experience with the silence of nature. A safe and friendly location to spend time on your own or with family. Loved it.

    We stayed for 3 nights at the start of April with our 6 and 2.5 year olds. The Walled Garden cottage had 2 bedrooms so not wanting to disturb our 6 year old we put our 2.5 year old to sleep in the mezzanine area with the sofa bed - this was fine in early Apri but will be tricky as the summer comes since there is 3 skylights in the property which have no blinds and the light would keep her awake. Overall we had a good time, the kids enjoyed playing in the park and in the swimming pool - the toys left at the side of the pool were a big hit. We felt a little let down by the restaurant, it was only properly open on one night of our stay and took us 2 hours just to get one course - it had such positive reviews. There was only one person covering both bar and restaurant- ie seating people, taking orders, serving drinks, bringing out food, clearing tables, talking to people walking in etc. It was so inefficient, in the whole time we were there not one table got turned over. We had to leave without the kids ice cream (which would’ve been included) since it was getting too late and we didn’t have another half an hour to wait for it to come out. Not sure what had happened the night we went given the other positive reviews but the restaurant was not a positive addition to the village in our opinion, especially given we were on holiday during what should’ve been peak time. All Melfort Village staff we spoke with were friendly and helpful, took time to talk to the kids and gave us suggestions on places to visit with them. The holiday cottage was well equipped- jigsaws and games were left for the kids, the only downfall being the 1000 piece jigsaws stored at 2 year old height, she gleefully emptied the box before we could stop her! Hopefully we found all the pieces again.

    We were lucky with the weather,the previous week we were told was very wet. The sun shone the first part of the week and the colours of the trees and reflections in the water were stunning. The second part of the week was a little mixed weather wise but enjoyed it nevertheless,lots of walks ,natural scenery and wildlife Our lodge was in the walled garden which was a little way out from the main accomodation but very comfortable. Tip:- TAKE A TORCH.
