About this property
A luxury converted School Room
This is an elegantly converted school room which now offers a perfect home for two guests. The property has been totally renovated into a luxury get away.
You enter the property into a large porch with hanging space over the radiator with a door then leading into the kitchen. The kitchen has everything you would need to prepare food with a fridge/freezer, microwave, ceramic hob, a fan oven, dishwasher and washing machine. This then leads out into the open plan sitting /dining area with a log burner, Sonos player, flat screen Freesat TV, wifi and ample seating. There is a second porch leading off the back of this area which leads to the private garden which used to be the play ground. Also off the sitting room is the bathroom which has a bath and large separate walk in shower. Both the kitchen and bathroom are under the balcony bedroom which can be accessed by the oak staircase. The bedroom looks down on the sitting/dining area and out of the large full height windows into the garden. This has a large oak super-king four poster bed with a hypnosis mattress and matching sets of drawers. As this is open plan we sadly do not accept dogs. Outside there is a barbecue, table and chairs to enjoy the sun trap garden. There are also out buildings for storage if needed. A perfect retreat for two!

Just the prefect calm,chilled space with everything you could possibly bed and more. Stunning accommodation photos don’t do it justice. Just had the perfect weekend away. Thank you.
Beautiful property, the pictures do not do justice to just how lovely and spacious this cottage is. My daughter and her partner had an amazing time making the most of the peaceful rural setting. The hosts were very helpful and had made it feel very festive with lovely decorations and Christmas crackers on the bed. A memorable stay.
The School House was a great place for us. We enjoyed how spacious and inviting the house was. The king sized bed is very comfortable and comforter was perfect for the cool nights. We enjoyed our morning coffees in the sunny garden. We found it had everything we needed including laundry soap for the washer. We enjoyed the quiet and peaceful location, but close to many great places in Argyll. We highly recommend The School House.
Wonderful. Meaning full of wonder. Our stay was simply rejuvenating. The hosts were knowledgeable and very helpful. The location was peaceful and full of connections to nature. We slept well and had everything we needed. The sheep visited and the birds sang. We had delicious dinners at the Tayvallich Inn and at the Horseshoe Inn in Kilmartin. We saw sea lions, porpoises and white tailed eagles with Venture West boat charters. I sang Karaoke in Oban.We rented a row boat from our hosts and enjoyed a peaceful day on Loch Ederline. Truly a lovely experience.
I fell in love with the School Room when I saw the pictures online and the reality was even better. All the necessities are provided in the well-equipped kitchen and all the furniture is comfortable and well-cared for. The area is scenic and quiet with lots of interesting places to explore. The town of Lochgilphead is nearby for picking up groceries and enjoying shops and restaurants. I did have a small moment of confusion when I arrived because I didn’t realize the School Room is attached to the School House which is also a rental. I accidentally tried looking for the key storage on the School House side for a few minutes before realizing I had parked in the wrong driveway. This wasn’t a big deal, just something to be aware of. Overall, I adored my stay in the School Room!
Sehr schöne moderne Unterkunft. Sehr ruhig und gut gelegen.Wohnraum und Schlafraum gehen ineinander über, stört aber nicht.Küche etwas sparsam eingerichtet, aber alles notwendige Vorhanden.Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder!

Prachtig huis
Geweldig huis op prima locatie. Fijne vakantie (5 dagen) gehad.
This is an absolute gem in a beautiful part of the West Coast. The property is absolutely immaculate and has been set up so you can properly relax. It has a very well equipped kitchen, smart TV, bluetooth speaker, incredible bed and powerful walk in shower. Can't wait to go back!

Great stylishly renovated property
We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage which was stylishly renovated, comfortable and welcoming. It has everything that you need with a great bedroom, well equipped kitchen and nicely proportioned living area. My only criticism is that the heating is on a timer. I usually get up very early (around six) and the heating does not come on till 7.30. A bit more flexibility in the control of the heating would be welcome for us early risers.
