Shore Cottage was clean, comfortable, very well equipped and had the most beautiful view from the main window out across the Kyle! Our stay was peaceful and relaxed and we enjoyed visits to Cape Wrath, Smoo Cave and Balnakeil to name but a few! The golf club at Balkaniel provided a lovely lunch! We can heartily recommend a stay at Shore Cottage.

Lovely cottage with spectacular views. Very well equipped , we had everything we could need. All rooms were spotless and cosy. Plenty private parking space and room for the dogs to wander outside. Excellent wifi and freeview tv. Only issue i would say we had was the noise from extractor fan in the bathroom which was very loud when trying to relax in the bath. Definitely worth a stay if you are in the area.

Fabulous property in an amazing location. Cottage had everything you could need and very well laid out. Owners were excellent and really helpful, particularly when our ferry to Orkney was cancelled. The view is incredible, in all weather. In better weather an otter can be seen close to the cottage either in the water or at the shoreline. Loads of beaches and walks within easy distance. Faraid head was a highlight. Hope to return.

Delighted that Shore was just the perfect wee spot to have a winter break. Yes, you can either lie in bed and take in the view each morning or take in a much larger one in the main lounge and diner. Sounds like you really made the most of your winter break up there.
You left it ever so tidy. Thank you and of course you would be welcome back again.

À propos de l’hôte
Hôte : Gillie Elliot
My husband David and I have been coming up to Durness for over 44 years so know the area pretty well. David's great grandfather came up here at the turn of the century to help break in the ground for sheep farming. Balnakiel Farm was one of the original family farms. It has now been split into two and David now runs Rhigolter Farm. We live in Essex as he works as a Hand Surgeon in Southend. Our two children have been coming up here each year and now bring our grandchildren who love it up here.
Voici pourquoi l’hôte a choisi cet hébergement
This cottage was a tumbledown shed for years on the roadside. Our friends Bernard and Irene Hendy bought the Cape Wrath Hotel in 2006. It was with great excitement we watched as they converted the Lodge into a magnificent house and Shore Cottage was rebuilt into this wonderful little oasis it is today. We are delighted to become the new owners.
Voici ce qui rend cet hébergement unique
As Shore and Kyleview Cottages come under the umbrella of Cape Wrath Lodge there is a resident housekeeper who lives in the Annexe flat at the rear of the Lodge. Her name is Marta and can easily be contacted with any problems or requests. Being so close to the shoreline otters can be seen playing in the evenings out of the huge windows. The ever changing tide constantly brings magnificent views and birdlife.
