Situated along the shore of Loch Carron with uninterrupted views of the nearby sparkling water, this attractive two-bedroom cottage’s location guarantees peace, tranquillity, history, wildlife, arts, culture, water sports, and a whole lot more.
Offering a twin bedroom and a double bedroom, the well-cared for cottage adjoins Park House with a shared access path at the front of this striking building. It is located on the picturesque road to Ardaneaskan along the banks of the loch.
The white cottage has a modern grey glass panelled front door, which leads directly into a cosy sitting and dining room that boasts rustic charm, and a full-length window that provides plenty of light. With large couches and a wood burning stove alongside a dining table, it certainly lends itself to relaxing, chatting and enjoying meals.
At the rear there is a corridor with an inviting twin bedroom that has a classy, pale décor, and window in the sloping ceiling. A light and airy kitchen, with a dishwasher and washing machine, is also located here, and a minimal-look white bathroom, with bath and large shower cubicle, completes the downstairs.
A staircase rises up from the living room to a double bedroom that is both modern and timeless, with wood panelled walls and slanted ceilings, a velvet armchair and subtle lighting.
Outside, the property is set back from the road, where there is ample shared, private parking. A large communal, sloping, well-kept front garden provides the perfect spot for guests to lap-up the beautiful panorama of the loch and beyond.
Whether it’s an escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life, a special occasion, or an adventure, Park Cottage at North Strome is an ideal place to begin a holiday to remember.
Park House can also be booked for larger parties wishing to holiday together but still have their own space.
Chilling out and relaxing is the order of the day at Cuillin View, but there is so much to do and see in this part of the world, that you are bound to be tempted away to explore at least some of the delights of the area.
An hour's drive will have you on Skye (30 miles) with its many attractions. The Applecross Peninsula, which you access over the spectacular Pass of the Cattle, is a delight and there is a sandy beach there just beside the village (10 miles, with pub). Heading further north, you will reach Shieldaig and Torridon (26 miles) so beloved of walkers and climbers and on to the famous sub-tropical gardens at Inverewe (50 miles). If a day in the city appeals, then you could leave the car at Strathcarron Station and take the train up the glen to Inverness (67 miles).
Don't forget to visit picturesque Plockton (23 miles), with its palm trees and yachting marina, perhaps stopping for lunch at one of its excellent restaurants. The Rockvilla Hotel at Lochcarron and the Strathcarron Hotel at Strathcarron (9 miles) both serve good meals and the Carron restaurant is just a mile further down the Kyle of Lochalsh road. Lochcarron has two well-stocked general stores, one of which is also a PO, and some lovely gift shops. Strathcarron has a PO, while Kyle of Lochalsh is the nearest place for major supermarket shopping.
There is an attractive 9-hole lochside golf course at Lochcarron which welcomes visitors, with snacks and bar meals available in the clubhouse. Lochcarron also has a sailing club and mountain guides for climbing on Skye and the higher peaks round about and mountaineering courses, are available locally.
