Shelborne Lodge is recently renovated to provide comfortable flexible holiday accommodation. Situated next to the historic Crinan Canal at Cairnbaan, it has everything needed for a wonderful base to explore Argyll. Beavers, boat trips, interesting walks, castles, prehistoric stone circles, whirlpools, islands, bike routes with easy scenic rides or more challenging singletrack, the area offers a wide choice of activities - or just chill out with a good book in front of the woodburning stove, or laze in the large garden watching the yachts pass by.

A short walk away is Cairnbaan Hotel, excellent food and bar, with many other dining opportunities a short drive away.

Wheelchair accessible ground floor rooms, accessible bedroom, accessible shower -room (contact us for accessibility advice)

Perfect as a holiday house for two families, a larger family who like extra space, or a group of friends who want a quiet holiday.
