We are in a National Scenic Area where there is an abundant variety of wildlife including seals, otters, deer and many beautiful birds. It is a wonderful area for a holiday, whether you want to be energetic or just relax and absorb the gentle colours and shapes of the surrounding countryside.
Ashfield is a 500 acre family estate on the shores of Loch Sween in Mid Argyll, recently awarded 4 Star grading by the Scottish Tourist Board. We have four main enterprises; farming, forestry, a hydro-electric scheme on the river Lussa producing clean, renewable electricity and a stone built self-catering cottage sleeping four, Millstone Cottage, which forms part of the farmhouse.
