Description
Woodend Cottage is a handsome detached house of mainly stone construction under a slated roof. The house was at one time the factors house to the neighbouring Ardlamont Estate, it faces to the southwest and it enjoys a slightly elevated setting from where there are aspects out across own garden grounds, woodlands and towards the coach house and stables square at the front. The accommodation is laid out over three levels and the house lends itself perfect for principal family living, or as a second or holiday home, or indeed as an income producing short term self-catering holiday investment proposition.
The property enjoys a wonderful sylvan and coastal location close to the shores at the southern end of the Ardlamont peninsula to the south of both Kames and Tighnabruaich. It is presented in clean fresh order with relatively new kitchen and sanitary ware.

Outbuildings
Old stone garage and general-purpose store at the rear. Polytunel, and Poultry house and enclosure.
Situation
Woodend Cottage sits in an area of great natural scenic beauty at the southern end of the Ardlamont peninsula. The house is tucked privately amid woodland gardens with a southerly exposure and aspects to the former historic coach house and stables square of Ardlamont House.
The nearest settlement is the village of Kames which sits just to the south of Tighnabruaich, perhaps its rather better-known neighbour. Kames has its own hotel, post office and shop which easily cater for everyday needs and requirements.
Tighnabruaich, previously voted the prettiest village in Argyll, Lomond and Stirlingshire, is about 1.5 miles further to the north, and is a well-known sheltered anchorage with moorings that are always lively with the comings and goings of boating and yachting craft, all under the protection of the local lifeboat station.
The village centre offers further shops, a post office, garage, gallery, and hotel or self-catering accommodation. A bus service runs from Kames via Tighnabruaich to both Rothesay and Dunoon.
During the summer months, the internationally-renowned sailing school is very popular, as is the PS Waverley, the last seagoing passenger-carrying paddle steamer in the world, which calls at Tighnabruaich Pier on her way to and from Arran.
Portavadie Marina is 6 miles away and has in recent years seen significant investment in creating a modern state of the art marina infrastructure, with associated chandlery, restaurant, accommodation, and spa facilities. The marina is fast gaining a reputation among the sailing communities as a must-go-to destination and many drive to the marina for culinary days and evenings out.
Tarbert is 11 miles (by boat) to the west and accessible by a direct ferry service from Portavadie.
The city of Glasgow is 60 miles away via the frequent Western Ferries crossing to Gourock, or via the scenic 90 mile route via Loch Lomond. Glasgow offers numerous retail districts, and all the higher educational, cultural and leisure services normally associated with a major international centre.
Tighnabruaich has a reputable and award-winning primary school, and secondary schooling is available at Dunoon Grammar or Tarbert via the short crossing from Portavadie.
The area is famous for its dramatic natural beauty; yachtsmen and women around the world sail through the scenic Kyles from the Clyde marinas and on up through Loch Fyne to Ardrishaig through the Crinan canal and out to the Hebridean islands.
The area offers much in the way of relaxing outdoor pursuits beyond the famous sailing school. There is tennis, and Tighnabruaich Golf Club has a scenic and challenging 9-hole golf course.
Sea, river and loch fishing are also available in the area, as are a number of commercially run shoots. Some of the local estates allow stalking by arrangement.
Tighnabruaich lies on “Argyll’s Secret Coast”, which stretches from Strachur at the top of Loch Fyne round the coast to Colintraive. It is an area of stunning natural beauty with countless opportunities to discover peaceful locations. Nearby activities include walks in forests or along the coast, fishing, kayaking or sailing and enjoying the wildlife.
Gardens
Gravel driveway access direct from the B8000. Tree lined access lane leading to turning and vehicle hard standing at the house. Gently sloping lawn to fenced paddock at the front. Recently laid Caithness type stone flagstone terrace and patio. A strip of mixed semi ancient native woodlands (recently thinned) is at the north western side and continues around to the rear. Central stone steps lead to a raised lawn and drying green. The rear gardens are fringed with mature trees underplanted with rhododendrons. A pathway from the rear of the back garden with expansive views to the Kyles to the Isles of Bute.
Woodlands
Mixed species woodlands of birch, Sitka spruce and underplanted with rhododendrons to about 15 acres in a woodland strip to the south of Woodend Cottage.
