Superior Bed & Breakfast in Argyll

Lichen Burn B&B riverside location

A taste of Argyll

Come and unwind with us as you sit by the side of the beautiful River Nant and soak up the sunshine, enjoy the wild flowers and watch the birds, red squirrels, the occasional pine marten and other wildlife play on the riverbank.

Lichen Burn is a newly-built house, situated in beautiful Glen Nant, on the edge of the village of Taynuilt. Looking to the north, we see Ben Duirinnis as it towers over Loch Etive and faces Ben Cruachan, the local Munro.

Our two guest suites are situated on the garden level overlooking the river. The bedrooms are large (more than 20 square metres) and contain a superking-size bed, two comfortable armchairs, TV, tea/coffee-making facilities.

Each bedroom has an ensuite bathroom, with full-size bath and shower.

Taynuilt is a village with a strong Gaelic cultural life (the name in Gaelic is ‘Taigh-an-Uillt’, the House by the River), hosting ceilidhs (music, singing and dancing gatherings) in the village hall weekly throughout the summer. Taynuilt has its own Gaelic choir which wins awards throughout Gaelic-speaking Scotland.

Within easy reach of Lichen Burn is the port of Oban (12 miles), with its ferry links to Mull and other islands of the Hebrides. Why not take a trip to Tobermory at the north end of Mull, or the ferry to Coll and Tiree just beyond Mull?

On the way to Oban, however, you will pass
a herd of Highland cattle at Achnacloich Bay.

Just beyond, you will come to the Connel Bridge which crosses the dramatic Falls of Lora, a reef dividing Loch Etive from Dunstaffnage Bay. Depending on the state of the tide, the water cascades over the reef in a dramatic display of water mechanics.

Beyond Oban to the south the coast road takes you to magical lochs and inlets, and there are many boat operators that will take you to visit the infamous Corryvreckan whirlpool and the Pass of the Grey Dogs, spotting seals, dolphins and occasionally whales along the way.

Taynuilt has a beautiful 9-hole golf course on the banks of Loch Etive and under the shadow of Ben Cruachan.
