Looking out across hills and river below, this detached former croft offers the rare combination of complete rural seclusion and carefully restored comfort. Step straight from the door into wild landscape, or simply pause and take in the stillness — this is a place to slow down and breathe properly.
Painstakingly renovated by its Highland owners, the cottage blends traditional character with thoughtful modern living. Downstairs, the open-plan living space combines exposed stonework, deep-silled windows and solid wood floors with the warmth of leather sofas and a stove-effect fire. The modern kitchen, complete with range-style cooker, makes long, relaxed suppers after a day outdoors a pleasure rather than a chore.
Upstairs, two beautifully presented bedrooms echo the tones of the surrounding hills, with calming natural colours and quality furnishings designed for proper rest. A spacious bathroom with corner bath and separate shower completes the first floor.
Outside, the enclosed garden offers uninterrupted views across the strath, with garden furniture and BBQ for long evenings under open skies. A path meanders gently down through the hillside to the river Kanaird — perfect for a quiet stroll, a picnic, or simply sitting beside the water.
With private parking for three cars and secure bike storage, Hill Cottage makes an ideal base for walkers, cyclists and those seeking a true Highland escape. Despite its peaceful setting, it remains well placed for exploring the dramatic coastline, mountains and villages of the northwest Highlands.
This is not simply a place to stay, it’s a place to feel the landscape.

Our second time staying at Hill Cottage and it won’t be our last. Cottage is cosy with beautiful scenery all around., not far from Ullapool if you’re willing to drive some, you will come across two of the most beautiful beaches you’ll ever see
