Kyleview Manor Scotland

A stunning find on the shorefront of the Kyles of Bute

What a spot! This Scottish retreat, on ‘Argyll’s secret coast’ benefits from large bay windows that frame glorious views of the Kyles of Bute. Many of the rooms are suffused with the extraordinary quality of light that has drawn artists and writers to the west coast of Scotland for centuries.

Immaculately presented and finished with care and flair throughout, Kyleview Manor is the perfect setting for a family gathering, reunion of friends or special celebration. Step into the relaxing sitting room and find yourself catching your breath at the view through the windows. When you can tear yourself away, there’s plenty of fun to be had. Play pool on the full-size table or watch a film on the 65ʺ TV screen, complete with Xbox, in the games room. Head outside for table tennis on the terrace or boules at the purpose built boulodrome. Drinks and a barbecue on the terrace are a must in the summer, with the stunning views adding to the occasion, while the modern, well-equipped kitchen makes cooking for a crowd a cinch. When sweet dreams beckon, choose from eight luxurious bedrooms with king and superking beds, six of them ensuite and the seventh and eighth sharing a large family bathroom. When you wake, draw open the curtains for more of those magnificent views.

Scotland for outdoor adventurers

Kyleview Manor is in the perfect location for Scottish outdoor pursuits, including golf, fishing, cycling and sailing. Alternatively, visit unspoilt beaches with island views, discover ancient clan castles and explore wildlife-rich countryside in this designated National Scenic Area. And, not to be missed, is a trip on the Waverley, the last seagoing paddle steamer in the world.
