Welcome to Camus nan Geall
This brand new well-appointed holiday house sleeps 8 in three bedrooms (bedroom 1 – double, bedroom 2 – double plus cot and bedroom 3 – two bunk beds for four)
Camus nan Geall is a new holiday house built right in the middle of the village of Tayvallich. We believe it has the best outlook that gives a completely uninterrupted view of this renowned and sheltered bay.
Situated equidistant between the pub/restaurant at one end of the bay and the shop, church, hall, sports court and phone box at the other end.
There is also a public slipway and pontoon situated at the post office/shop, which is free to use (for a small donation in the honesty box)
The house nestles into the hill behind it with a private driveway out front with ample off-road parking for three or four cars, and in addition, there is space for an additional two cars in the private lay-bay at the roadside.
The front of the house gives an unspoilt view to the bay. There is a private jetty right in front of the house, for your use while in residence.
