About this property

Cosy Highland retreat with countryside and sea views.

Firthview is located in a peaceful area from which to base yourself for an active holiday or relaxing retreat.

Located just off the NC500 route in was completely refurbished in 2021. It sleeps 4 people and is available to rent all year round.

This coastal cottage is part of a traditional croft-based smallholding in Caithness with views of the Pentland Firth, Orkney Islands and surrounding countryside.

Recently refurbished into a beautiful modern cottage. It has a fully equipped kitchen with sea views, living/dining room, two bedrooms and a bathroom.

Outside there is lots of garden space and plenty of parking in the courtyard.

Based on a working smallholding so enjoy watching the sheep pottering about in the fields.
