Fairy-tale cottage at the end of the world

Wonderfully located cottage offering amazing views of the sea and Quiraing. Enjoying morning coffee/tea at terrace/lobby looking at sunrise is wonderful experience.

On the ground floor you will find fully equipped kitchen, bathroom with bath/shower and lovely living room with log burner + lobby and terrace. Upper floor offers 2 cosy bedrooms with very comfy beds perfectly suited for restful nights after long hikes.

Stunning Location

We had a wonderful two week stay in Aird Cottage. The location couldn’t have been better with stunning views across the bay to the mountains in the distance. We were surrounded by wildlife and of course the sheep and rabbits. The cottage was everything we could have wished for, clean, tidy with everything we needed for our stay. The sun lounge was our favourite room, we spent many hours gazing out at the ever changing scenery. Perfect in every way. Thank you.
