Rowanhill is let on a weekly basis - Sunday-Sunday - Or a 5 Night Short Break from a Sunday, Monday or Tuesday. It is an attractive traditionally stone built and rough cast two-storey self catering cottage with three twin bedrooms in its own garden beside the River Shiel and next to Loch Shiel near Acharacle, Ardnamurchan, Argyll on the West Coast of Scotland. Ideal location for Fishing Holidays - either on the fresh water loch Shiel for Trout, Salmon & Sea Trout or on River Shiel for Salmon and Sea-Trout.
Rowanhill lies beside the very minor road serving the crofting area of Moss about two miles from the centre of the thriving village of Acharacle which is served by two hotels, a post office and tearoom, an excellent village store with all provisions, and a bakery. Loch Shiel is 18 miles long flowing from beside the Jacobite monument at Glenfinnan in the north through spectacular mountain scenery to the start of the River Shiel only quarter of a mile from Rowanhill. The river flows past Rowanhill and under the new and old bridges through beautiful countryside for about 3 miles before plunging over a spectacular waterfall into the sea loch which at high tide fills the waterfall and dams the river. The sandy beaches at Ardtoe are about 15 minutes drive and the beach at Dorlin with the commanding presence of Castle Tioram is only 10 minutes drive from Rowanhill Cottage. Castle Tioram is the fourteenth century stronghold of the MacDonalds of Clanranald with a wealth of Scottish history behind its crumbling ramparts burnt in the Jacobite Rising of 1715. There are also sandy beaches at Ardtoe and Kentra are about 15 minutes drive from Rowanhill Cottage. Ben Resipol, 2774 ft, is a notable landmark. Rowanhill is in a perfect location to enjoy the many delights of the Ardnamurchan Peninsula. The Ardnamurchan Lighthouse sits at the most westerly point of the British mainland - on route there is the Ardnamurchan Natural History & Visitor Centre. Also a brand new visitor centre at The Adelphi Ardnamurchan Distillery is now open. Ferries run from Kilchoan to Tobermory or Lochaline to Fishnish on the island of Mull.
