About this property
Stay at Faodail House if you want to experience: panoramic views, glorious sunsets/sunrises, perfect views of the stars, wildlife, walking, and peace and quiet in an isolated location but with a pub 5 minutes drive away! Petty Knowes Cottage is a charming, single-storey, stone property set amongst rolling hills a short walk from the small village of Rochester in the heart of the Northumberland National Park dark zone. The property has been renovated to a high standard, whilst care has been taken to retain many original features to add a wealth of character. Petty Knowes Cottage is an excellent choice for relaxing in comfort with touches of luxury, at any time of the year. Enter into the stylish sitting room which is designed with comfort in mind. Leather sofas with throws and cushions provide ample seating with a porters chair for those who prefer their own space! The lighting can be ambient or set according to your mood with a dimmer facility on the main light and a selection of lamps and candles. You can curl up on the sofas and relax in front of the open fire, play cards/games on the games table, (a selection is available for your use) and there is a 42" TV, DVD player and a large selection of DVD’s. Walk through to the open-plan fully equipped kitchen/diner, where you will find all the necessary appliances for rustling up some delicious meals. There is also a washer/dryer, so you don't have to bring your whole wardrobe with you during your stay. The luxury bathroom provides a bath and over shower, with Egyptian cotton towels and sumptuous underfloor heating. Once the evening draws to a close, retire to one of the two king-size bedrooms and relax in the soft Egyptian cotton bedding. There is a secret snug (behind the mirror) with stone walls and a day bed, perfect for curling up and reading a book. Faodail House also offers a double bedroom and 3 single bedrooms, making this the perfect property for families or groups of friends looking for a relaxing holiday! To the front of the cottage, there is a private decking area which comes with outdoor furniture, meaning you can dine alfresco or simply enjoy a refreshing drink as the sun sets. Guests are welcome to use the owner’s hot tub during their stay, adding a spot of luxury to your romantic getaway. Plastic glasses are provided so you can enjoy a drink whilst watching the stars or enjoying the rolling countryside.

The village of Uig (pronounced "Oo-ig"), at the northern tip of Skye, rests on the shores of Loch Snizort, Skye’s largest sea loch off the Atlantic. The village boasts two pubs, two shops, a hotel, a filling station and cafe, as well as two other businesses well-worth a visit. Uig Pottery sells a range of high quality pottery produced on-site, while the Skye Brewery sells its own superb real ales from the brewery shop. Sheltered by high cliffs, the bay is one of the most beautiful in Skye, and is home to the ferry terminal for the Outer Hebrides. Wildlife in the area includes golden eagles, sea eagles, pilot whales, seals and dolphins. The attractions of the Isle, including the main town of Portree, are all within easy reach of this tranquil base.
