Welcome to Ballimore Farm Estate
Our Family run Scottish Country Retreat within a working Farm in Argyll
We understand how important it is to spend quality time with your loved ones, family and friends and we strive to provide the ideal peaceful environment to do exactly that and provide our guests with a home away from home!
Ballimore Farm Estate provides comfortable accommodation with plenty of outdoor space for groups at the Farm House and Cottage.
Since 2008 Ballimore Farm Estate has been brought back to being a working farm with sheep, highland cows and a handful of free range chicken. We have established our self-catering holiday lets hosting a large number of groups coming together for family re-unions, anniversary and birthday celebrations and hosted a couple of small intimate weddings.
Every year we look forward to welcoming holiday makers and Scotland Explorers from all over the world and in 2024 we plan to offer experiences such as fishing, stalking, boat tours etc delivered by 'Rural Country Services'.

The Farm Lodge
The Lodge lies within the grounds of the garden but enjoys a tucked out of view position with a small orchard and vegetable patch. This is where we live as a family and from where we run the farm. We are on hand for our guests if any questions may arise or help is needed. Our free roaming chickens and dogs share the garden, whereas most sheep live in the surrounding fields with our highland cows.
