About this property
4 bedroom accommodation in Millport, Isle of Cumbrae
Situated on the Isle of Cumbrae, this spacious first floor conversion of a Victorian villa boasts stunning views over the bay to the mountains of Arran.. First Floor:
Living room: 40" Freeview TV, DVD Player, CD Player, Open Fire
Kitchen/dining room: Electric Oven, Electric Hob, Microwave, Fridge/Freezer, Dishwasher, Washing Machine, Tumble Dryer
Bedroom 1: Kingsize (5ft) Bed
Bedroom 2: 2 x Single (3ft) Beds
Shower Room: Walk-In Shower, Toilet
Second Floor:
Bedroom 3: Kingsize (5ft) Bed
Bedroom 4: 2 x Single (3ft) Beds, Sofa Bed (Single)
Bathroom: Bath, Toilet. Electric central heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included. Initial logs for open fire included. . Lawned garden with sitting-out area and garden furniture. On road parking. No smoking.. This holiday home is only yards from the shoreline and a 5-minute walk from Millport town centre on the Isle of Cumbrae. There is a sandy beach with tropical palms fronting the promenade, and yachts are moored out in the sheltered bay. The town offers cafés, shops, bars and a bistro. The Isle of Cumbrae offers a truly relaxing escape, and is hugely popular with cyclists and walkers, yet is just a 10-minute water crossing from mainland Ayrshire on ferries which run very frequently during the summer. A haven for wildlife, Cumbrae attracts migrant birds from around the world and the flora of the island is equally varied, and a visit to the island’s Marine Research Station with it museum and aquarium is a must. There is a water sports centre on the island offering various courses including kayaking and canoeing. Millport is also the home of Europe’s smallest cathedral and Britain’s narrowest house. Newtown Bay in the village offers sheltered anchorages and secure moorings. Beach 50 yards. Shop, pub and restaurant 500 yards.
