Quirky Nook

About this home

About this space Compact yet cosy one-bedroom ground-floor flat in the heart of picturesque Lochwinnoch village, with the loch just a few metres from the door. The bedroom has a luxurious king-size bed, and the living room includes a double sofa bed, sleeping up to four guests. Wi-Fi, a 27-inch Smart TV, and a modern bathroom are included. Guests can enjoy free use of a two-person kayak with immediate loch access (disclaimer to sign). Only One Small, well-behaved dog is welcome. The space Built in 1905, this traditional sandstone flat was originally built to house railway staff during the height of Lochwinnoch’s rail era. Former owners recall large families once living here, giving the property a strong sense of history. While compact by modern standards, the flat is warm, cosy, and genuinely homely, with high ceilings, thick sandstone walls, and original proportions full of character. The living room sits directly opposite a large park, ideal for children to play and perfect for dog-friendly walks. Guest access Guests can check in independently using the lockbox located at the flat entrance in the porch and will have the entire property to themselves for the duration of their stay. Other things to note As of August and September 2025, the roof and chimney have been repaired. Further inspection has shown that the chimney requires additional attention, so the open fire is currently not available until it has been fully rechecked. Rest assured, the flat remains very cosy, with gas central heating throughout that heats the space quickly and efficiently. The surrounding area is picturesque with the flat entrance opposite the Loch. Lochwinnoch is a small village with lots of amazing walks in all directions and play areas for Children and pets. Although compact, the village has lots of choice from organic produce (21 Grains) a newly opened bakery, to a gift shop a few doors away. Lots of good food is available, recommend The Junction for great coffees/ teas and home made cakes or cooked breakfasts/ light lunches. The Boat Yard near the train station is also great for a quick bite or dinner. Dolce vita is the local Fish and Chip shop and is popular take away. There are 3 x local pubs, The Brown Bull, Three Churches and The Corner Bar. All are very friendly and homely. Further afield, I would recommend the Boarding House or Bowfield Hotel in Howwood for good food and surroundings. Check out - Clyde Muirshiel website for details on walks which can be downloaded. Car parking is available for free on the quiet roads outside the flat and around the area. Main parking is on Church street. The Lochwinnoch train station is around 10 mins walk (near RSPB Bird sanctuary) pathway opposite flat entrance. The train to Glasgow is only 20-25mins journey. Buses are available in various locations around the village to local areas & further afield places. There are great cycle paths around the village and you can enjoy many routes in all directions.
