Self Catering Holiday Cottages
There are six holiday cottages and two self catering apartments available for let throughout the year at Bonawe House. The two elegant apartments are part of the main house. The six cottages are set around a sunny courtyard to the rear of the main house. They are furnished mainly in pine, fully carpeted and have original Scottish paintings and direct access to the gardens. All our accommodation has a dishwasher, cosy living flame fire in each livingroom and a bath and shower. There is free Wifi access in our reception and in most of the cottages (Clematis, Hydrangea and Edwardian struggle in particular). The superking beds can be separated into singles on request.
