You'll be perfectly placed for spotting otters, golden eagles, dolphins, seals and deer, and exploring ancient woodlands and rivers nearby. Other delights of the peninsula include watery wonders such as Loch Torridon (16 miles), or pop across to the Isle of Skye for further adventures before retiring to your countryside bolthole.

Enter this renovated accommodation into a hallway where you can hang your coats and leave your shoes after satisfying days out exploring the hills and beaches nearby. The hallway leads onto a shower room to the right and the living quarters on the left. This welcoming studio has everything you'll need during your stay – a well-equipped kitchen for cooking up feasts, a dining space, a lounge area plus a king size bed. Relax with a sudoku on the sofa while your partner rustles up something tasty for you to share with wine at the table – why not turn the lights off and spark up a candle for that extra romantic feel? On cooler evenings, be sure to light the wood burner to keep you both warm. Outside this charming property you'll find a seating area that's ideal for resting with a book and a coffee on milder evenings as you lap up the surrounding views and fresh air.

A perfect peaceful base for exploring the Applecross peninsula. Eating out at the walled garden was excellent, but closes in October. Wet weather gear may be needed, lots of walking and trails right from the cottage. A torch is needed if walking at night. Only one shop locally for food shopping.. We have returned many times.
