Ards house is a family run guest house situated on the west coast of Scotland in the village of Connel, few miles from Oban. We are on the shores of Firth of lorn with panoramic views across the sea, mountains and islands beyond.
Ards House is a traditional Victorian Villa still keeping much of its original charm, warmth and character. We have eight letting rooms; six double and one twin all with en-suite, and one single. The property benefits from a large guest car park opposite, on the shores of the Forth of Lorn. From here many of our guests enjoy relaxing and watching the spectacular sunsets. Sea Otters, seals and an array of birds are frequent visitors to our shores.
This season we have two new self-catering apartments available with sea views. One is on the ground floor with a separate entrance benefitting from a patio window overlooking the sea and has a log burning stove. The other apartment is on the first floor with a large jacuzzi bathroom and large private kitchen/lounge on the ground floor with sea views
We are located in the small village of Connel. From the house it is only a short walk to local bars and restaurants, village shop, church, train station and bus stops. We are only five miles from Oban which is very popular with visitors, famous for its sea food and port with ferry services to a variety of beautiful Scottish islands. It is an ideal location for exploring the west coast of Scotland, with numerous historic places of interest, never ending scenic views and the magnificent wildlife.
