At Rettie, we’re delighted to bring to market a collection of homes that capture the spirit of this remarkable region. This month, we’re featuring three standout West Coast properties, each offering a different way of life, from the stately charm of a Victorian country house in Tarbert, to a coastal home with sweeping island views, to the rare opportunity to own a working farmstead on the Isle of Gigha.
Imagine waking to the sound of waves brushing the shoreline, morning light flooding through windows that frame distant islands, and stepping outside to landscapes shaped by sea breezes and centuries of West Coast heritage. There’s something unmistakably special about Scotland’s west coast, a place where dramatic landscapes meet the open sea, and where the pace of life softens almost without notice.
Leim Farm, Isle of Gigha
An exceptional coastal farmstead on one of Scotland’s most cherished small islands
Opportunities to purchase property on the Isle of Gigha rarely come to market, and farms, rarer still. Leim Farm offers a remarkable chance to become part of this thriving island community, known for its white‑sand beaches, turquoise waters, and community‑owned spirit.
Set within sweeping rural land, the farm comprises a traditional farmhouse along with an accompanying range of outbuildings. With acreage suitable for livestock, horticulture, or diversification projects, Leim Farm is as much a lifestyle opportunity as a home.
Whether continuing its agricultural use, developing eco‑tourism, or creating a sustainable retreat, the possibilities are rich. The serenity of Gigha, makes it a place where life feels both simple and deeply fulfilling.

Glencreggan House, Tarbert
A Victorian country house with sweeping views over the Kintyre peninsula
Perched above Glenbarr on the scenic Kintyre peninsula, Glencreggan House offers a rare chance to own a striking period home surrounded by rolling countryside and panoramic coastal views. Built in the Victorian era and carefully maintained over the years, the house blends traditional elegance with modern comfort.
High ceilings, generous reception rooms, and classic architectural detailing create a sense of grandeur, while the surrounding grounds offer a peaceful retreat of gardens, woodland, and open space. Whether envisioned as a family home, boutique hospitality venture, or multi‑generational residence, Glencreggan House holds extraordinary potential.
The nearby beaches, walking routes, and rich local heritage add to its charm, while Tarbert, Campbeltown, and ferry links to the islands keep the world within easy reach.

The Pier House, Tighnabruaich
A stunning waterfront home overlooking the Kyles of Bute.
The Pier House occupies one of the most enviable coastal positions in Argyll , right on the shoreline of the celebrated Kyles of Bute, with uninterrupted views that shift beautifully with the light, tide, and weather.
This charming coastal home blends character and comfort, offering bright living spaces that frame the water like a painting. Outside, the sea is just steps away, making it an ideal base for sailing, kayaking, paddleboarding, or simply watching boats drift by from the calm of a window seat.
Kames and nearby Tighnabruaich are known for their welcoming community, boutique shops, galleries, and excellent outdoor pursuits. For anyone dreaming of life beside the water, The Pier House delivers a front‑row seat to one of Scotland’s most atmospheric coastal landscapes.
