Property DescriptionAnyone seeking a truly romantic honeymoon cottage or a peaceful little retreat is sure to be delighted by such a gem of a property in this magnificent scenic area. It has been a great pleasure watching this ruined croft cottage transformed to provide such a tasteful and comfortable little residence with top quality modern fittings, yet still with a sympathetic feeling for the past.
Very solidly built, the original thick stone walls give a real feeling of character inside. The rooms are light and airy, while the traditional fire provides a cosy feature we know many of you appreciate.
Situated down a quiet private road, the location is idyllic — immediately in front of the cottage the river Shiel tumbles out to the sea and just a short walk away is Castle Tioram in the sandy bay.
All along this most attractive coastline are wonderfully unspoilt stretches of sandy beach and delightful coastal walks. Time spent here will surely leave you spellbound by the magic of Scotland.
