Description
Mossbank is a charming cottage type property and was historically a fisherman’s cottage originally built in 1870. The property has been extended over the years and is laid across two easily managed levels. The main house is completed in a combination of cream painted stone under a dark grey slate roof, with the detached 1 bedroom annexe laid across two easily managed levels and completed in smooth render under a dark grey slate roof.
Due to the annexe accommodation at Mossbank, the property and accommodation type will suit many and is perfect for principal private residence, muti-generational living, second or holiday home or as a secure income generating self-catering holiday letting investment property.

Situation
Tarbert is a picturesque West of Scotland fishing harbour village situated on the sheltered Eastern side of the Kintyre peninsula, about 13.2 miles to the south of Lochgilphead and about 37.7 miles to the North of Campbeltown.
Tarbert has a number of friendly harbour side pubs and restaurants. It is renowned for hosting the annual Scottish Series Yachting Event, its seafood, music and folk festivals. Tarbert has primary and secondary schooling as well as a range of specialist shops and a mid sized Co-op supermarket all of which combine to provide for most daily needs and requirements.
From Tarbert there is a ferry link to Portavadie, which gives access to an alternative route to Glasgow via Dunoon and Gourock.
11 miles away to the south is the picturesque little ferry port of Claonaig, by Skipness, which connects Lochranza on the island of Arran to the Kintyre peninsula, whilst the Kennacraig ferry is 6 miles South (just off the A83) and connects the Kintyre mainland with Islay, Jura and Colonsay.
The A83 leads to Lochgilphead and Campbeltown (c14 and c36 respectively) both offering fuller shopping and professional services. The latter is the main shopping town for the peninsula and provides a further range of facilities including supermarkets, garages, the award winning ‘Aqualibrium’ leisure centre and library, a hospital and a cinema. The hospital has an air-ambulance service to the Southern General hospital in Glasgow for emergencies.
Campbeltown holds an annual regatta, a week-long music festival and the Mull of Kintyre half marathon.
For sporting/outdoor enthusiasts, the links course of Machrihanish is of international acclaim and attracts many visitors. A new 18-hole golf course known as the Machrihanish Dunes Golf Club has also recently opened. Tarbert has a challenging 18-hole course and there are 9-hole courses in Carradale and on the island of Gigha. The beach of Machrihanish Bay is well known for windsurfing and surf canoeing.
Some of the most scenic sailing in the world is available with access to either Loch Fyne at Tarbert or the west coast and the Inner Hebrides from West Loch Tarbert. The Crinan Canal also connects Loch Fyne at Ardrishaig with Loch Crinan and on to Mull and the Hebrides. Tarbert has its own sheltered marina and moorings and across Loch Fyne at Portavadie there is a marina and spa; both have associated boat and chandlery services.
Productive sea fishing from shore and boat is available locally and there are trout and salmon opportunities by permit in surrounding rivers and hill lochs.
The countryside is a delight in which to walk or cycle and there is no shortage of scenic routes and places of archaeological and historical interest to visit.
The islands of Davaar and Gigha are nearby and are steeped in history, with stunning scenery and landscapes which attract an abundance of wildlife. A long-distance footpath called the Kintyre Way was completed in 2006 and stretches from Tarbert at the North end of the peninsula, to Southend in the South and criss-crosses the peninsula, connecting communities and landscape, people and produce. The Kintyre Way is 89 miles long in total and provides 4 to 7 days worth of walking. There is serious hiking and gentle rambles.
