Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Glen Creran's rolling hills set the backdrop for this spectacular Highlands home. The vistas are certainly fantastic, ranging from the mountains down to the loch – there's a view from almost every room. Relaxing is easy as can be here – sip scotch on the terrace, unwind in the hot tub, break a sweat in the private gym, or curl up in front of the fire in the library. The design is the perfect mix of contemporary and cosy, with all the mod-cons you'll need. Your host even leaves a basket of Scottish goodies to make you feel at home. Keen to explore? Appin, Glasdrum, and other Highland villages are just a short drive away.
