Situation
Skurivaig is a detached bungalow type property located to the rear of the pretty west coast settlement of Tayvallich. The house is situated above the bay and is accessed via a farm track. The house is completed in render finish, neatly presented under a dark grey tiled roof, its accommodation is light and bright and laid out across one easily managed level.

The house lends itself perfectly as a principal family home; in addition, Tayvallich is scenically beautiful and is widely recognised as a west of Scotland short break and holiday destination, accordingly, Skurivaig offers scope as a second home or as an income producing holiday home.

Lochgilphead is the main town of the district and as mentioned is about 11.2 miles away to the east.

Tayvallich is a picturesque fishing village situated on the shores of Loch Sween. It is a popular and sheltered yachting haven with its spectacular scenery and vibrant community which includes a restaurant, general store and shop along with many local artists. There is a beach just across at Carsaig Bay and many forestry walks in and around the peninsula.

Crinan, with its little harbour, canal basin and anchorage, forms the western sea end of the Crinan Canal and in the summer months the canal is always a colourful spectacle with passing yachting, cruising and pleasure craft as they navigate the canal waterway to connect the inland sea lochs, the Clyde estuary and the Kyles of Bute with the more testing and scenically spectacular sailing waters of the western Isles.

Lochgilphead (11.2 miles) has a good range of local shops, a mid sized Co-op supermarket and amenities that adequately cater for everyday needs and requirements with further shopping including a Tesco supermarket available at Oban. It is possible to arrange grocery deliveries from both the Co-op and Tesco.
