Description
Occupying an elevated four-acre site with commanding views across the Sound of Mull towards Tobermory and the distant mountains beyond, this unique hospitality offering comprises three architect-designed accommodation units together with an owner's or housekeeper's residence. Positioned within one of Scotland's most dramatic coastal landscapes, the business has gained international recognition for its distinctive design-led approach to small-scale living and experiential tourism.
At the heart of the site is AirShip 002, an iconic aluminium-clad cabin whose innovative design has captured worldwide attention. Conceived as a contemporary interpretation of a streamlined airship, the property is characterised by its curved form, distinctive dragonfly windows and carefully considered interior. Elevated within a secluded setting, it enjoys panoramic sea views towards the Ardnamurchan Peninsula and across the Sound of Mull. The cabin has achieved exceptional success as a holiday let, becoming one of the most sought-after and wish-listed Airbnb properties in the United Kingdom, earning an extensive collection of five-star guest reviews and a loyal following.
The success of AirShip 002 inspired the creation of The PilotHouse, a striking two-storey retreat that further develops the principles of compact, imaginative living. Its distinctive elliptical form encloses a dramatic first-floor living space, elevated to maximise the spectacular coastal outlook. Accommodation at ground level includes a bedroom, study area and shower room, while an external balcony creates a natural extension of the living space, framing far-reaching views towards Tobermory and the open sea beyond. Since completion, The PilotHouse has attracted significant media attention, featuring in leading publications and television productions.
Completing the trio is The Captain's Cabin, a beautifully crafted and highly efficient coastal hideaway that distils the lessons learned from its predecessors into a compact yet remarkably comfortable design. The nautically inspired interior incorporates a welcoming saloon, galley kitchen, double bedroom and shower room, while a private rooftop balcony provides an outstanding vantage point from which to enjoy the surrounding seascape. Sustainability and comfort have been thoughtfully integrated throughout, with high levels of insulation, underfloor heating, triple glazing, renewable electricity and a wood-burning stove contributing to year-round appeal.
Supporting the accommodation business is The Old Chapel, located below The Captain’s Cabin, which now serves as two bedroom owners' or housekeepers' accommodation with kitchen, living room and conservatory. Ideally positioned for the day-to-day management of the enterprise, it provides an attractive and practical base from which to oversee operations while remaining sympathetic to the privacy and independence of guests. On site is extensive parking space and a range of additional storage, outbuildings and workshop.
Together, the properties represent an exceptional lifestyle and business opportunity, combining award-worthy design, established trading success and an unforgettable setting on Scotland's west coast. The sale offers the rare chance to acquire one of the country's most distinctive hospitality enterprises, with a proven reputation and significant ongoing appeal to domestic and international visitors alike.

Location
Situated on the beautiful Morvern Peninsula, Drimnin enjoys a remarkable coastal setting overlooking the Sound of Mull towards the colourful harbour town of Tobermory. Surrounded by rugged coastline, ancient woodland, open moorland and an abundance of wildlife, the area is renowned for its exceptional scenic beauty, tranquillity and close connection to nature.
Despite its wonderfully secluded character, Drimnin remains accessible. The Corran Ferry (40 miles) provides a convenient crossing to the main road network, offering onward access to Fort William (50 miles), the A82 and the wider Highlands. From here, some of Scotland's most celebrated landscapes are within reach, including Glencoe, Ben Nevis, Glenfinnan and Loch Linnhe, while the dramatic scenery of the Ardnamurchan Peninsula lies just across Loch Sunart.
The wider Morvern and Ardnamurchan area is regarded as one of the Highlands' best-kept secrets, offering an outstanding range of outdoor pursuits including walking, sailing, kayaking, fishing, wildlife watching and mountain biking. Golden eagles, otters, red deer and seals are regularly spotted throughout the area, while miles of coastline, hidden coves and forest trails provide endless opportunities for exploration.
Combining a strong sense of community with spectacular surroundings and convenient access to the Outdoor Capital of the UK, Drimnin offers a rare balance of peace, adventure and connectivity in one of Scotland's most captivating coastal locations.
