Here visitors can discover the Isle’s stunning landscape of rugged mountains, tumbling rivers and spectacular coastline that is home to bountiful wildlife, fine museums and craft centres.

We had a wonderful stay at the cottage this September for our family get together. The house is very spacious and has everything we needed for a few nights, including an incredibly well-equipped kitchen. The bedrooms are spacious, warm and offer fantastic views across Loch Duich. We enjoyed looking for local wildlife and exploring nearby walking trails. Our host Linda was very helpful and responsive. A really fantastic stay, can’t wait to come back.

For peace, quiet, beautiful scenery and wildlife this is the perfect location. The house is spacious, comfortable, and has all you need for a relaxing holiday. The views from the house across the loch to the mountains are spectacular. The owners have provided all equipment you need to cook meals, and there are thoughtful extras like playing cards, toiletries and umbrellas.There are several places to eat within a 20 to 40 minute drive, and local shops to top up what you bring with you are around a half hour drive away. The Glenelg ferry is a must do.
