An Darach

An Darach, Contin Bed and Breakfast is open all year round, excluding Christmas, providing a very high standard of accommodation in lovely surroundings, ensuring a peaceful and relaxing stay. The house, which is built on one level, has a lovely south-facing rear aspect overlooking a large garden where guests are welcome to wander or just sit and relax, bearing in mind the weather in this area is much better than the national weather forecasts would have us believe. Refreshments can be taken on the patio, overlooking the pond, on the long summer evenings or by the open fire in the cosy lounge, in the cooler months.

Accommodation comprises of two comfortable, spacious bedrooms, 1 king-size and 1 twin/super-kingsize, both en-suite, a guest lounge and dining room. There is a large garden with ample off-road parking and secure storage for cycles, motorcycles and sports equipment.
