Barcaldine is a delightful rural community situated close to the shores of Loch Creran in an area of great natural beauty, steeped in history and with an abundance of flora and fauna, providing many opportunities for the outdoor enthusiast whilst still being within easy reach of the principal towns of Oban (12 miles South) and Fort William (32 miles North) each providing a wide range of shops, restaurants, professional services, leisure and recreational facilities. The village has a primary school and other local services can be found in the nearby villages of Benderloch and Appin.

Rhugarbh, a magnificent converted Church, was built in 1844 and served as such for the parish until it was sold in 1987, when it was imaginatively converted by the current owners into a family home by effectively forming a timber framed house inside the granite facade of the old church, providing a lasting hallmark of its origins and whilst also providing high levels of insulation. The property has been designed to give an incredible feeling of light and space throughout and provides extremely flexible accommodation which could easily be adapted for many uses subject to any necessary consents. The current configuration includes splendid reception areas with an impressive staircase rising to the upper level open-plan kitchen/sitting/dining room, together with 4 of the 5 bedrooms and a bathroom. The extremely pretty garden extends to a third of an acre and has a delightful assortment of plants, shrubs and bushes giving a burst of colour when in season, all of which adds to the appeal of this individual and distinctive home.
