Set in beautiful grounds of ancient woodland with rhododendrons, maples and azaleas, the garden has a wide burn running through it with an attractive wooden bridge that gives access to the loch. Coire Ealt also boasts its own beach, ruined jetty and fishing rights. The property is situated on the east side of Loch Eck, one of the most picturesque inland lochs in Scotland.

At the head of Loch Eck stands Glen Branter which was sold to the Forestry Commission in 1921 by Sir Harry Lauder, whose monument can be visited off the main road. This area now forms part of the Argyll Forest Park which was established in 1935 with walking and cycling tracks through the hills.The nearby picturesque village of Strachur, on the shores of Loch Fyne, is renowned for the Creggans Inn as well as many other restaurants in the area. Strachur caters for everyday needs including schooling at primary level. Excellent secondary schooling is available in Dunoon as well as more extensive services including supermarkets and a hospital.
