About this listing

Home Farm was at one time and until 1984 a working dairy farm providing dairy supply services to Glendaruel, Loch Riddon and the surrounding area. When the farming family member retired there was a strong sentimental connection to the farm and so all of the assets were retained by the family, and the farmhouse and farm steadings repurposed as a self-catering holiday facility. The redevelopment was carried out with great flair and sensitivity to the historic structures carefully preserving the farm’s unique character and now allowing guests to enjoy its very special atmosphere. The properties at Home Farm Cottages have been refurbished and restored to an exceptional and luxurious standard which have secured a 4-5 star rating via Visit Scotland and the Scottish Tourist Board. Rich oak flooring, warming log burners, deluxe range furnishings, high end kitchen and bathroom ware all teamed with designer standard interior décor, quality ceramics and soft furnishings combine to make the properties at Home Farm a most inviting and attractive ownership proposition. The nine properties are formed by the former farmhouse and steadings buildings; they are in two separate structures and are of white painted harled exterior finish under slated roofs. A particular feature is the former cart sheds which have been beautifully incorporated within the development, the access arches of which now feature immediately appealing fenestration and some with natural exposed stone. The vendor’s original plan was to sell the all of the assets as a whole, however a change to the strategic plan now offers Dairy Cottage as an individual home. Many properties in the district are principal private residences as well as second or holiday homes. Glendaruel is a recognised west of Scotland holiday destination and so Dairy Cottage lends itself well toward income production via self-catering holiday letting. Dairy Cottage Ground Floor Half glazed door to open plan dining room and sitting room with warming log burner on a slate hearth and stone reflecting wall, door to rear gardens, open plan galley style fitted integrated kitchen. Glazed door to inner hallway with 2 x general purpose stores, bedroom 1 with fitted wardrobes, bedroom 2 with fitted wardrobes, bathroom.
