IN A REMOTE LOCATION ENJOYING SPECTACTULAR RIVER AND COUNTRYSIDE VIEWS
A spacious traditional 1800’s detached farmhouse converted with cosy wood burning stoves, exposed beams and character features throughout. Nestled off the beaten track enjoying a tranquil unique location on a hillside overlooking the River Oykel and stunning countryside.
Situated at the western end of Kyle of Sutherland and accessed by an unmade farm track, the property is a perfect base to explore the Northern Highlands. There is easy access to beaches on both east and west coasts. This unique location is surrounded by acres of wonderful countryside enabling you to enjoy a real get-away-from-it-all holiday. The property overlooks one of the best salmon rivers in Scotland. Enjoy a range of outdoor activities including fishing, kayaking, mountain bike courses just 4 miles and local hire available, hillwalking or pony trekking, or take a dip in the stream close to the cottage. On a working farm, you’re likely to see a variety of wildlife and you may be lucky enough to spot a seal. Visit the Falls of Shin, Portmahomack, Dornoch Beach, Dunrobin Castle, go dolphin spotting at Cromarty, or head across to the west coast.
