Barfad Farmlands features three beautifully restored cottages, thoughtfully converted from a traditional stone barn to provide comfortable and welcoming holiday accommodation. Set within 100 acres of farm and woodland, the properties offer both tranquillity and space, making them an ideal base whether you’re seeking a peaceful retreat or a more active getaway. The setting is particularly special, with around 1.75 miles of private coastline along the shores of Loch Fyne, a stunning sea loch known for its beaches, dramatic scenery and ever-changing views.

The Dairy Cottage comfortably accommodates up to four guests, with additional space for a cot if required. It features a spacious open-plan layout combining a living area, kitchen and dining space. The cottage includes a family bedroom with one double and one single bed, along with a separate single room, making it well suited to families or small groups. A separate shower room and WC add convenience, while built-in wardrobes and three chest of drawers provide plenty of storage throughout.

The Chicken Coop Cottage is cosy and well-designed, ideal for two guests with additional space available for a cot if needed. It features a compact open-plan living area that combines a comfortable lounge, kitchen and dining space, making it perfect for relaxed self-catering stays. The cottage includes a separate shower room and WC, along with a double bedroom furnished with a comfortable double bed, a built-in wardrobe and two chests of drawers, providing practical storage while maintaining a warm and inviting feel.

Both cottages are well equipped to ensure a comfortable and convenient stay, featuring a TV, fridge, microwave, electric hob and oven, as well as a kettle and toaster. Free WiFi is available throughout and guests have access to a shared laundry room complete with a washing machine, tumble dryer, iron and ironing board. Linen and towels are provided and each cottage benefits from parking for up to two cars. Electric heating is installed throughout for year-round comfort and a travel cot can be supplied if required.

Just a short two-minute drive or a pleasant fifteen-minute walk through woodland, the lively harbour village of Tarbert offers a mix of shops, cafés and restaurants set around its picturesque waterfront, where fishing boats and yachts create a vibrant coastal scene. Visitors can browse a variety of craft and souvenir shops, some of which also serve afternoon tea, making it an enjoyable place to spend a relaxed afternoon. Overlooking the village, the ruins of Tarbert Castle provide stunning views across the bay towards the surrounding countryside, as well as across Loch Fyne and the Cowal peninsula. In the summer months, the famous PS Waverley, the world’s last seagoing paddle steamer, visits the pier, while nearby ferry services offer easy trips across the loch and to nearby islands. For those who enjoy the outdoors, the area is rich in walking opportunities, including routes that begin near the castle and form part of the long-distance Kintyre Way, as well as numerous scenic woodland and coastal paths that are also well suited to cycling.
