  • Traditional Highland stone house in an elevated position on the shores Loch Duich
  • Set within the Druidaig Estate with views to Eilean Donan Castle and the mountains of Skye
  • Enjoy wonderful waterside and hill walks on the doorstep in this picturesque location
Property code: CA106

This beautiful, classic property was once a farm cottage and retains its traditional Highland character. With a gorgeous, secluded setting on the shores of Loch Duich and cosy country interiors, it is very much suited to walkers, group of friends and their four-legged hill-loving companions looking to explore the incredible landscapes of Wester Ross and even the Isle of Skye.

The property has a beautiful traditional stone facade, and the rooms inside are in-keeping with this period character, mixed with modern conveniences. The heart of the home is the light and airy living space, with an open fire for extra cosiness as the nights draw in. The kitchen is a well-equipped, bright room, ideal for rustling up team suppers and titbits for Fido, before enjoying them in the sweet dining room overlooking the garden. The bedrooms, one on the ground level and two upstairs, are calming twin rooms. And, the best bit, outside is your dog's dream — a wild private garden, and a rough path down to the loch.

The location of this old farm building gives you prime access to the rugged shores of Loch Duich and the Highlands beyond. From the grounds of the Druidaig Estate, you can set off on some amazing walks with your pet. The hill lochs around the estate can be fished free of charge, and there's even stalking and shooting available. Across the loch, spy the stunning Eilean Donan Castle, or head to the Five Sisters of Kintail (10.5 miles) for a challenging hike over this monumental ridge.

We loved our stay in this cottage. It was perfect, welcoming & homely, it felt like visiting an older loved relative (please dont bland design it!) with beautiful views, birdsong and wonderfully quiet.

The cottage is in a very quiet position, with limited views of the loch. It took a few days for it to warm up, CH was a bit iffy at first but seemed to sort itself out. Availability of good firewood was a boon. It's a tired holiday cottage, towards the end of the season, yet the curtains and blinds, kitchen/utility storage etc were excellent.
