Lochinver - Sutherland

In a secluded, elevated location, high above Lochinver, this charming cottage enjoys wonderful views over the water and the village to the magnificent mountain peaks of Suilven and Canisp. The traditional whitewashed exterior conceals a fully modernised interior, which is comfortable and cosy with lovely finishing touches. The enclosed grounds encompass several wooded acres with a sitting area, lawn with play equipment, tree house, paths and viewpoint to fully appreciate the spectacular surroundings. The cottage is on the edge of the village and the local shop and Highland Stone pottery are a short walk down the quiet lane while the main shops, restaurants, hotels, harbour and visitor centre are less than a mile away on the other side of the bay.
