Been roughly equally distant from the iconic experiences of Oban, and its connections to the inner Isles. And the dramatic peaks of Glencoe there is something for everyone and all ages. Built to stand up to the worse of the Scottish weather, ‘The Nook’ provides a base to explore the west coast, or just snuggle down and relax, absorbing the landscape and wildlife around you. Courrie Nook is a 8mt pod, new for 2026, ideal for couples or family’s. And sits on our croft adjacent to our house in Appin
You may be lucky enough to spot and Otter, see a Sea Eagle soring above, or wake up to a inquisitive deer checking you out. While we can’t guarantee the wildlife, we can be sure or providing you with peach and tranquillity, in stunning surroundings.
And don’t forget the islands, Mull, Lismore, Kerrera, and beyond—each island has its own character, charm, and adventures waiting to be discovered. The west coast is the perfect launchpad for island hopping.
Appin is where Scotland slows down and the scenery takes over. And is one of those rare places that feels both peaceful and alive. A feeling of space, and a place to breathe.
The west coast is the antidote to busy living. Here, you can breathe deeply, switch off, and reconnect with nature. Imagin you’re tucked away in a cosy pod, strolling along a quiet beach, or watching the tide roll in, the sense of calm is unmatched.
Visit the iconic Castle Stalker, one of Scotland’s most romantic and much-photographed castles it occupies a tiny rock island close to Port Appin at Loch Laich.
Walk the Clach Thoul costal path close to the pier. A fairly leisurely walk taking you around the peninsular with stunning views across to south Lismore and of course don’t forget to take the ferry (and your bike) across to Lismore. A short hop over water. But a world away from city life.
Whether you’re walking, cycling, kayaking, or simply wandering with a camera in hand, Appin gives you room to explore at your own pace.
We would love to welcome you to our croft close to Oban and enjoy the peace and stunning scenery of Appin. Together we have many years of experience in hospitality and like nothing more that sharing the beauty of the place we are so lucky to live in.
