Bad Daraich is a lovely large stone built house, overlooking Tobermory, with views that would be hard to beat anywhere in the world. We were fortunate to have fantastic weather too. The house has everything you'd need, including a pool table for days or nights in if the weather is not so good. The living room has a lovely bay window with seating which allows you to take in the views. There is a large dining room which easily accommodates 10-12 people, and a large kitchen and utility room. We'd have liked to have a larger fridge/freezer or a separate beer/wine fridge as with a large group of people there was a lot of food and drinks to accommodate.
The bedrooms are large and well furnished, with the 2 front rooms again offering spectacular views. The only slight criticism is that some of the doors either had locks that didn't work, or doors that wouldn't stay closed, though these are small things that can easily be fixed I'm sure.
The building has a large garden with some wooden seating and again the only slight criticism is that we could have done with some better outside seating, perhaps with sun loungers or deck chairs which would be more comfortable than the wooden benches. There is plenty of car parking space in the garden and around the house.
These small things did not detract from our holiday at all, and we'd recommend this property to anyone wanting to spend time in a quiet, but extremely picturesque location. There are nice restaurants, shops and bars within a 5-10 minute walk. The price we paid was reasonable for such a large property, accommodating 9 people in our group and, when broken down into a price per person, it was very reasonable. If we are back in Tobermory we'd definitely consider using Bad Daraich again, and would recommend it to anyone, particularly large groups of family or friends.
