About this property

Ullapool 6 miles. This smart detached cottage is situated on a private, family-owned estate, set amongst the dramatic scenery of the Northwest Highlands. Fisherman's Cottage is ideal for a family group, or group of friends who want to experience the peace and beauty of this most desirable part of Scotland. The interior of the cottage is tastefully presented and offers quality comfort for guests. There are three bedrooms, all with single beds providing lots of flexibility along with two bathrooms. The cosy wood-lined sitting room with welcoming open fire allows for views to the sea and surrounding countryside and is a perfect place to relax after an energetic day. The heart of the cottage is the modern and well-equipped kitchen/dining room where guests can gather to chat, cook and enjoy meals together around the table. Just a few minutes’ walk from the cottage takes you to the water’s edge where there are breathtaking views of the Summer Isles and here you can pick up The Postman's Path, a famous walk which follows the coast all the way to Achiltibuie. This is indeed your own little piece of Highland heaven and yet the vibrant village of Ullapool is just 10 minutes away where you can board a ferry to the Outer Hebrides should you fancy a spectacular sea journey across The Minch. For fishermen then a holiday on the estate ticks all the boxes as salmon and trout fishing can be organised by prior arrangement. As you would expect the area is rich in wildlife and leaving home without your camera would be a mistake. Why not travel northwards and explore the wonderful empty unspoilt countryside with amazing beaches and views? A magical holiday awaits and this smart homely cottage will meet all your expectations. EPC Rating: Band D

Ullapool, nestling on the shores of Loch Broom and overlooking the Summer Isles, is the largest settlement in Wester Ross. The town offers some lovely pubs and restaurants, a range of shops including a well-stocked supermarket, a challenging coastal golf course and a museum and Visitor Centre. Ullapool is an ideal base from which to explore the North West of Scotland, with most of the main tourist attractions an easy drive away.

    I can confirm that the cottage is draught-proof and warm, even then! Initial issues with broadband connectivity very promptly and efficiently sorted by the housekeeper and owner. Sadly the gamekeeper had sold out of all the venison steaks. We will have to return again to enjoy those. Cottage is ideally situated for my (current) favourite area of Scotland: Assynt & Inverpolly. Really enjoyed our stay and would recommend this cottage.

    Great views. Great access to the local countryside. Directions to property significantly out. Turn off was described as 6 miles north of Ullapool when it was only 3. Note the 6 miles matches Postcode in Satnav. Irritating when you have driven 10hrs with a baby onboard. Shower was either cold or scalding. Owner said it would be difficult to get plumber at short notice. Research of reviews shows this has been a problem since 2019! Internet was not working and took 36+ hrs to get resolved. With limited phone reception, internet is an essential feature for international travellers who often have to remain connected to their work. Welcome wood pack for open fire miserly and useless without matches!

    We will book again to continue exploring this beautiful part of Scotland.
