Situated within the Loch Lomond & Trossachs National Park, Benmore Drimfern is a fantastic bungalow with an open plan living space as well as a second living room with panoramic views. It makes an ideal base from which to explore this stunningly beautiful area with Benmore Botanic Gardens on the doorstep as is the fantastic Pucks Glen with amazing walks and waterfalls. The surrounding area is known as Argyll’s Secret Coast with its sparkling sea lochs, romantic ruins, ancient forests and stunning scenery. This coastal route takes you through some of the most stunning parts of Argyll’s Secret Coast; a magical undiscovered corner of Cowal. A number of public gardens are located in the area, such as Ardkinglas, Crarae and Benmore Botanic Gardens with its avenue of giant redwood trees. There are three golf courses available locally and many opportunities for a spot of fishing. The town of Dunoon is nearby and offers a good centre for shopping, leisure facilities and a small cinema. The Argyll Forest, part of the simply gorgeous Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park, is on the doorstep and has numerous forest tracks, marked walks, cycle ways and wonderful waterfalls to explore. For those a bit more adventurous, the ferry at Colintraive to Rhubodach takes only three minutes to cross the sea loch and arrive on the Isle of Bute, a famous tourist destination over the years with many attractions such as Mount Stuart House and Gardens as well as the Victorian seaside resort of Rothesay. From this luxurious home, guests can explore many small villages such as Tighnabruaich and Kames with a spectacular viewing point en-route which looks out over the Kyles of Bute. Loch Fyne with its famous restaurant and oyster bar is not far away as is Inveraray; both great for a day trip. Free WiFi The property is located on a working farm.

This is a great place to stay. We came in Feb, so there are a few things still closed.The house is lovely and clean, the doorways are wide and suitable for big wheel chairs, but the bathrooms are strictly wheelchair friendly, there were no grab rails in the ensuite bathroom.The grass on the 4 sides of the house is mostly moss and is very wet and boggy. The kitchen is not very well stocked. There were no good knives, there was only a small chopping board, there is a vent in the floor in front of the cooker that constantly blows cold air, and the dishwasher needed salt.The rooms are comfortable, but the bed in the Main bedroom is too soft and too small.The lounges and comfortable and large. The room with the fire gets very warm if you get the fire just right. And the logs provided are a nice feature.The internet is mostly OK, but it gets sketchy about 9pmThere are some really good walks close by. Pucks Glen is a wonderful climb, it will be much better when the current tree fall is cleared up.This makes some of the routes tough and others impassable.Dunoon is a nice town, but not a great deal to do. Go and visit Lorne(pub), the food is great. Invarary is a quaint little town. Fairly close by.If you come from the south to get here you may cross the Clyde using the ferry at Greenock, this is expensive, but will save another 2 hours in the car.Would we go back? Yes, most probably. ##### Phil Lancelotte ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Macdonald Crutherland House and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Glasgow-Hotels-Macdonald-Crutherland-House-And-Spa.h569463.Hotel-Information) > > [Balcomie Links Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Anstruther-Hotels-Balcomie-Links-Hotel.h29273506.Hotel-Information) > > [Glasgow Westerwood Spa & Golf Resort ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Glasgow-Hotels-Glasgow-Westerwood-Spa-Golf-Resort.h893990.Hotel-Information) > > [The Kenmore Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Aberfeldy-Hotels-The-Kenmore-Club.h9234110.Hotel-Information) > > [Finavon Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Forfar-Hotels-Finavon-Hotel.h39618185.Hotel-Information) > > [Achness Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lairg-Hotels-Achness-Hotel.h24057466.Hotel-Information) > > [Seamill Hydro Hotel & Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/West-Kilbride-Hotels-Seamill-Hydro-Hotel-Resort.h1818213.Hotel-Information) > > [Newburgh Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Aberdeen-Hotels-Newburgh-Inn.h12323173.Hotel-Information) > > [Waterfront Cottage with own Beach and Stunning Views Across The Clyde](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dunoon-Hotels-Waterfront-Cottage-With-Stunning-Views.h39682263.Hotel-Information) > > [Ardoe House Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Aberdeen-Hotels-Ardoe-House-Hotel-Spa.h23180.Hotel-Information) > > [Parklands Hotel & Country Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Glasgow-Hotels-Parklands-Hotel-Country-Club.h14766742.Hotel-Information) > > [Lochinvar Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Castle-Douglas-Hotels-Lochinvar-Hotel.h43651710.Hotel-Information) > > [Ben Cruachan inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dalmally-Hotels-Ben-Cruachan-Inn.h27041653.Hotel-Information) > > [go2 Glasgow Cumbernauld Hotel ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Glasgow-Hotels-Go2-Glasgow-Cumbernauld-Hotel.h5963230.Hotel-Information) > > [OYO Auldgirth Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dumfries-Hotels-The-Auldgirth-Inn.h36765167.Hotel-Information) > > [Loch Lomond Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alexandria-Hotels-Loch-Lomond-Hotel.h83284830.Hotel-Information) > > [OYO The Ivory Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Glasgow-Hotels-OYO-The-Ivory-Hotel.h2760113.Hotel-Information) > > [Dalmahoy Hotel & Country Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Dalmahoy-Hotel-Country-Club.h21999.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal Marine Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dunoon-Hotels-Royal-Marine-Hotel.h2693549.Hotel-Information) > > [Duck Bay Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alexandria-Hotels-Duck-Bay-Hotel.h30097341.Hotel-Information) > > [Lochside House Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cumnock-Hotels-Lochside-House-Hotel-Spa.h900570.Hotel-Information) > > [The Murray Arms Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Castle-Douglas-Hotels-The-Murray-Arms-Hotel.h22682976.Hotel-Information) > > [Peel Farm](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kirriemuir-Hotels-Peel-Farm.h29473884.Hotel-Information) > > [Coylumbridge Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Aviemore-Hotels-Coylumbridge-Resort-Hotel.h520458.Hotel-Information) > > [Greshornish House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Portree-Hotels-Greshornish-House-Hotel.h23086689.Hotel-Information) > > [ARDENNAN HOUSE HOTEL](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Inverurie-Hotels-ARDENNAN-HOUSE-HOTEL.h34546411.Hotel-Information) > > [Enterkine House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ayr-Hotels-Enterkine-House-Hotel.h10176973.Hotel-Information) > > [Ardeonaig Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Killin-Hotels-Ardeonaig-Hotel.h15830740.Hotel-Information) > > [Torrs Warren Country House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stranraer-Hotels-Torrs-Warren-Country-House-Hotel.h1780862.Hotel-Information) ---
