About this property
Aultbea 6 miles. A spacious first floor apartment situated on a traditional working croft in the scattered crofting community of Mellon Udrigle in the peaceful Wester Ross region. Enjoying wonderful sea and mountain views from its elevated position, the apartment offers bright and spacious accommodation, and is decorated and furnished to a high standard throughout. The owners live in the property below and personally welcome visitors. With shared use of the owners' pretty, rural garden, this is an ideal property to really get away from it all. The area is a mecca for bird watchers, and trout fishing is also available locally. The spectacular broad sands of Mellon Udrigle Beach are just 200 yards away. Peace and tranquillity in a totally unspoilt area of the Scottish Highlands!
It is a small village with a small harbour at Aird Point, from which you can enjoy boat-trips around the sandy and rocky coast. Aultbea has two churches, a shop, a butcher's, 2 hotels and a local craft shop. The village also plays host to a N.A.T.O base. Large ships often come inshore to refuel here and you can occassionally see warships in the Loch. Aultbea has an annual "fun day" where most people from the village turn up and play football or socialise over a homebaked scone. Nearby you can enjoy the spectacle ofthe famous Intervewe Gardens, a sub-tropical arboretum that is open throughout the year. This part of Scotland is perfect for those who want to explore the country's history and experience the abundance of natural beauty that it offers.
