Offering glorious sea and mountain views, this sympathetically updated former crofter's cottage makes a wonderfully tranquil retreat for couples and smaller families discovering the secluded surroundings of Wester Ross.

Set in a remote but breathtaking corner of the North West Highlands, the light-filled property enjoys a quiet location on the shore of Loch Gairloch, just a few metres from the beautiful Big Sand beach. Dating back to the Victorian era, this characterful hideaway has been beautifully restyled, charmingly furnished and tastefully decorated to make a fantastic holiday home for up to four guests.

Entering the property, the spacious and fully equipped kitchen offers a warm welcome, with plenty of work and storage space. This leads through to a tastefully decorated lounge with a lovely wood burner and ample seating, as well as a handy dining table in the corner. Exploring this bright and inviting getaway further, you will find a sweet dining room with a wood burner-effect electric fire and additional seating. The light-filled sunroom has large windows offering breathtaking sea views and an ideal space for you to sit back and relax. This room also features another charming dining table. The ground floor features an elegant bathroom with a shower over the stylish roll-top bath.

A steep, narrow cottage-style staircase leads upstairs to the two peaceful bedrooms tucked beneath the low sloping eaves of the property: there's a sweet double room and an airy twin.

Stepping outside, the peaceful garden features a gravelled seating area with a picnic bench offering a relaxing spot for dining alfresco. The enclosed garden has a lovely lawn with space for younger guests to let off steam. Private parking is available for one car.
