Eileagan Bed and Breakfast is a new Bed and Breakfast in Dunoon Scotland, following on from our previous Visit Scotland four star graded accommodation in Tighnabruaich.
Eileagan is a magnificent, spacious Victorian villa situated on an elevated location overlooking Dunoon and the Clyde estuary near Glasgow Scotland. The Bed and Breakfast has been tastefully and professionally renovated over the past three years and now offers comfortable accommodation matched by welcoming and attentive service.
Only ten minutes walk from the town centre, the house and garden lead directly on to woodland and hillside walks stretching through Bishops Glen, past the trout reservoir and on through the hills to Toward or Loch Striven.
Dunoon in is the main town servicing the Cowal peninsula and parts of Argyll Scotland, "the seaboard gateway to the Scottish Highlands, including the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park." Arrival by either of the two ferry routes provides spectacular views up Loch Long to the "Argyll Alps" and down the busy Clyde towards Goat Fell on Arran.
Equally attractive is the land route from Glasgow and Loch Lomond either over the Rest and Be Thankful, or from Argyll and the West through Inveraray, down the east coast of Loch Fine to Strachur, then skirting the dark mystical Loch Eck exiting at the Holy Loch and on into Dunoon.
Argyll and the Cowal peninsula have an abundance of dramatic gardens dating as far back as the 13th century, owing their botanical beauty and diversity to the many Scottish explorers, botanists and philanthropists who travelled across the globe in search of "new" specimens. Different species of rhododendrons flower from spring through to autumn; magnolias and azaleas vie for colour and aromatic magnificence and giant (and smaller) conifers cohabit with native and introduced deciduous trees.
Eileagan Bed and Breakfast provides the ideal base from which to either relax in the garden and watch the ships go by or to get out and explore this beautiful corner of Scotland by foot, bicycle, car or boat.
