Skye Lodge, 13B Dalavich Chalet Park, Dalavich, By Taynuilt, PA35 1HS

IMPRESSIVE STRIKING DETACHED HOLIDAY LODGE 

Occupying a beautiful, elevated and rural position, with views across the surrounding countryside to Loch Awe beyond, the sale of Skye Lodge offers a premium detached holiday lodge, located within the popular Loch Aweside Chalet Park, at Dalavich. Quietly nestled near the edge of the park, this stunning property is larger than standard and further enhanced by the generous garden grounds, equating to around a fifth of an acre, including a large detached garden shed, ample private parking, raised decked terrace and a Scandinavian hot tub. Benefiting from double glazing, this modern lodge is in excellent order throughout, beautifully presented and is heated by a striking wood-burning stove and oil-fired portable heaters. Providing deceptively spacious accommodation, conveniently arranged over two floors, the impressive open-plan living area with Cathedral-style windows, French doors and modern fitted kitchen, flooded with natural light, is a most attractive feature. The addition of two bedrooms, family shower room and entrance porch on the ground floor, plus the mezzanine principal bedroom with adjoining en-suite shower room on the upper floor, complete this beautiful property. Skye Lodge has holiday use all year round and would provide an idyllic holiday retreat, or a holiday let in a very buoyant self-catering market, as currently used.

The village of Dalavich is situated on the banks of Loch Awe, one of Scotland's largest and most picturesque freshwater lochs. With its wooded shores and scattered small islands, the area is a popular destination for anglers, hill walkers, cyclists, ramblers and holiday makers. The village itself offers the Dalavich Shop & Wild Rowan Café, offering a superb menu, stocked with grocery essentials, and includes a Post Office, whilst the extremely active, community-run village hall also offers a Restaurant and Bar and caters for private functions.
