It's an island but connected to the mainland by a small hump back bridge, so it is only 20 minutes drive into the town of Oban, with supermarkets and restaurants. The island has two pubs, both of which serve food. The village shop is 100 yards away. The Granary is one wing of an old stone farmhouse. It is recently refurbished to a very high standard, graded four star, and all facilities are in exc

They are supplemented by full central heating, run on hydro-electricity, with underfloor heating downstairs and radiators upstairs. Outside there is a pleasant garden, which includes a children's swing and scramble net. To the back you can just glimpse the sea; hills and countryside make a lovely prospect out the front. Behind the house there is a 9-hole golf course. Seil is the base for the famous Seafari boat trips. From Oban you can take the ferry to Mull and the historic isle of Iona, as well as many other islands of the Hebrides. The area has fabulous opportunities for walking, fishing, diving, sailingand horse-riding, and there are several historic houses and gardens to visit. Seil is also an ideal and popular location for sea-kayaking, with sheltered launching available on the inshore side of the island, and many spectacular islands and bays to visit. The house is about two and a half hours drive from Glasgow Airport. Oban is served by train, coach and ferry, and a local bus stops outside our door.
