Traditional fabrics, an oak mantelpiece and beautiful pictures help to create a cosy space to relax. A patio door leads out to the outdoor seating area and makes a splendid backdrop of rolling hills and crystal water. Well-equipped to cater for a large family or group, you can cook up a storm in the kitchen/diner and serve a delicious meal that everyone will enjoy. The antique dark wood table is the perfect setting for casual and more formal meals. Adjacent is a handy utility room.

We booked the cottage for a fishing break, numerous trout lochs close to the accommodation plus the Lagg Fishery through the gate, Eaun the estate manager was very knowledgeable and helpful, a pleasure to meet him. We will return.

The cottage was great and very well equipped. The location is stunning with immediate access to the Lochan Fearna and hills beyond through a gate in the garden. We were very lucky with the weather being dry and sunny all week and our English springer spaniel thoroughly enjoyed diving into all the lochans around after his ball.
