Set back from the picturesque shore of Whiting Bay, this beautifully renovated family home commands breathtaking views over the sea. Four spacious bedrooms make this a comfortable and enviable spot for up to seven guests, so it's an ideal spot for family get-togethers, while its beachfront location is sure to delight groups of boating enthusiasts and keen kayakers.

The two-storey home has a homely aesthetic, welcoming you from the moment you step through the door. Soft neutral tones and large windows help fill each room with light and space. From three of the bedrooms, you will wake up to the wonderful sea views, creating a sense of calm from dawn to dusk.

Relax in the large lounge, where there is plenty of room for the whole party to unwind and plan the next day’s itinerary before settling down in front of a film on the TV. For additional space, retire to the sunroom overlooking the mature gardens - a great spot to retreat with your favourite book. Dine together in the fully equipped kitchen/diner before retiring to bed. The single bedroom can also be found on the ground floor, as well as a disabled access shower room and separate WC.

Head up the carpeted stairs to the three further bedrooms - one super king-size, one double and one twin - all designed and decorated with comfort in mind to ensure a restful night’s sleep. The house also has a family bathroom with a shower over the bath on the first floor.

Breathe in the fresh sea air from the private, enclosed garden, where you’ll find garden furniture for al fresco dining or sipping your morning coffee. It’s also a great spot to savour any rare Scottish sun! Parking is available on the driveway, accessible from the side of the property, with further on-street parking available nearby.

Here you'll also discover a range of shops and an excellent art gallery displaying some of the best local work alongside many of Scotland's well-known artists.

 

From the house, enjoy easy access to the island's variety of cycle routes and walks, with a footpath for all abilities; explore the Giants' Graves (0.5 miles) and visit Eas a' Chrannaig (1.5 miles) – also known as the Glenashdale Falls. You can even pony trek through scenic countryside year-round at North Sannox Burn (17.5 miles), while those who wish to challenge themselves on foot should head further up the glen to be rewarded with panoramic views into Coire nan Ceum.

Thrill-seekers should head to Kildonan (3.5 miles) for an unforgettable paragliding experience. You can also enjoy boating, kayaking and sea fishing close to the property, while Whiting Bay's golf course is 1 mile away.

The house is well located, has excellent facilities and is well spacious for 7 people. The sun room also serves as a storage area for items such as walking gear and golfing equipment. Lamlash and Kildonan both have good places to eat and drink, our preference being the Kildonan Hotel.

We are a group of 4 women on a cycling holiday. We found the house to be in a very good location in Whiting bay. The house had everything we needed. The shower room accessed via the kitchen wasnt used fully due to its location. Would have liked to use a bbq but this was not permitted. The price was quite high but as it was split between 4 was ok buRead moret I wouldnt stay here if it was just my own family. We had a very good time here. Thank you Hide

This holiday house is in a fabulous location, really close to the beach and within easy walking distances of the tea shop and restaurant in Whiting bay. The walk to the giants graves and the Glenashdale falls was on the doorstep too!

The cottage is luxurious with all the home comforts you could ask for. As close to the beach as you can possibly get for an early morning or late afternoon dip/paddleboard or exploration. A lovely garden to sit and enjoy an alfresco meal/drink and big enough for a large family. We enjoyed having access to the eating facilities in Whiting Bay all ofRead more which atin walking distance to the cottage. Public transport is available at the front of the property,. Cant recommend Grahamfield. Highly enough. Hide

This is a truly wonderful house for a holiday. It is very comfortable, spacious, very clean and the decor was simple but very tasteful. We would love to go back! We really appreciated all the care and attention to detail that has gone into making this a home from home. Also, you cannot fault the location - perfect!
