Whether it's in dog years or human years, the home is ideally appointed for guests both young and old. Sleeping up to 20 humans and three pampered pets, you'll dream of coming home to this wonderful home after a long day in the Scottish countryside. Climb into the hot tub or take a turn in the sauna whilst your four-legged friends curl up in front of a warming wood burner.

The heart of this home is its spacious kitchen, a space perfect for the family and no doubt the main hang out spot for your three pampered pets. This open-plan room boasts a spacious dining table and a wood burner, creating a snuggly spot for cold winter evenings and a warming place for your canines to curl up. This house is filled to the brim with cosy areas to unwind, including the spacious double-aspect lounge on the first floor, where you'll find a TV, plenty of seating and a second wood burner. On sunnier evenings be sure to make use of the vast outdoor space, where an enclosed garden to the rear is the perfect spot for games of fetch and tug of war.

Leave no stick unfetched here in Argyll, where you'll find woodlands and walking routes right on your very doorstep. If man's best friend adores a trip to the beach, then they'll love the 1-mile walk down to Kilfinan Bay, a secluded sandy shore that welcomes four-legged friends. Sniff out some adventure in the Trossachs National Park (28 miles), where the Munro Beinn Ime (38 miles) is ready to be bagged.
