Situated on the stunning Assynt Peninsula, this charming white-washed cottage enjoys far-reaching views over the valley to the moors. Located at the mid-point of the scenic single-track Assynt coast road between Lochinver and Kylesku, this rural retreat is perfect for families or friends seeking a tranquil base from which to explore the North-West Highlands. Spend the day rock pooling and playing beach games at Clashnessie Bay (4 miles) and stroll upstream to see the 15-foot cascade of Clashnessie Falls. Take in the spectacular scenery in every direction from the Drumbeg Viewpoint (1.5 miles) with panoramic views across Eddachilles Bay and spot the 17th-century Drumbeg Wreck.

Your traditional cottage has a welcoming feel, decorated in neutral tones with bright accents of colour. Many of the rooms look out onto the surrounding countryside, creating a calming and restful atmosphere for you to unwind and forget about the hustle and bustle of modern life.

Enter the property and you will find yourself in the light and airy lounge, where cosy sofas invite you to sink into them and relax in the gentle warmth of the wood burner. Pick up some local produce to prepare in the well-equipped kitchen and share family meals in the bright and airy dining room.

Heading upstairs, you will find two well-appointed bedrooms, a double and a twin and the stylish family bathroom with a shower over the bath.

Step outside to admire the spectacular views from the open grounds of the cottage or spread out your blanket for a spot of stargazing in the open skies overhead. There is also storage for outdoor equipment.
