Old Byre
The Old Byre cottage offers a rare combination of Highland peace and quiet within just a few hours of London. The small village of Duror is at the heart of some of Scotland's most impressive scenery; the savage beauty of Glencoe and the challenges of Ben Nevis set the scene for excellent seafood restaurants and some memorable local pubs.
Recently restored, the Old Byre provides the self-catering visitor every comfort and an excellent base from which to indulge the 'inner intrepid' or to just switch off from the wider world.
We offer two comfortable bedrooms (one single, one double), an open plan sitting room (with a sofa-bed) and a well-equipped kitchen. There's a garden, patio and separate parking as having use of a car is essential. Please visit us at www.theoldbyre.com or call Katrina on 01631 740327 – preferably in the evening.
