Description
A traditional yet modern crofters cottage providing comfortable accommodation for four, situated in a beautiful elevated position overlooking sea and mountains. It is ideally situated for hill walking, mountaineering and coastal pursuits as it is located in Wester Ross just three miles from the village of Laide and 75 miles from Inverness airport and overlooking Gruinard Bay which has a stunning golden beach about five minutes away from the cottage. Please note that the stairs are very steep and therefore the cottage may not be suitable for the very young or the infirm.
Aside from Gruinard Bay it also offers more fantastic beaches all around the coast including Mellon Udrigle, Inverasadale, Gairloch, and Inverewe Gardens which are all within less than thirty minutes away.
The house is ideally placed for hill walking, mountaineering and coastal pursuits as well as exploring the romantic and enchanting Highlands. Guests can walk from the house or try the many walks of differing lengths and complexity all around either along coastal paths or into the Wester Ross wilderness behind the house. It also offers Teallach and other Munroes close to hand for climbers and sea trips from both Ullapool and Gairloch for guests to see wildlife including Dolphins and Porpoises.
Inside, the accommodation briefly comprises of a sitting room with DVD player and open fire, a recently modernized dining kitchen, sun porch overlooking the bay, two bedrooms and bathroom with shower over bath, a large informal garden with ample car parking and a summer house with garden furniture and a BBQ for al fresco dining. This house has retained its original character and has a warm, cozy and relaxed environment despite the modernization.
