Comfortable, clean and well located property with a lovely walk into Arisaig village. The sitting room window gives spectacular views to the Red and Black Cuillins of Skye, Rhum hills, Eigg and also Muck. We had great weather with magnificent sunsets from that same window. The Arora borealis performed the two nights before we arrived.

We enjoyed walking into Arisaig to eat at The Old Library restaurant and boatyard cafe. The bakery on Mallaig pier is a must for danish pastries and sourdough bread. We spotted porpoise and seals on the boat to Inverie Knoydart and had a sociable lunch in their pub, The Old Forge. For Harry Potter enthusiasts there is a welcoming specialised shop in Mallaig, down a wee alley full of Harry Potter experiences and produce.

We have just spent a peaceful, relaxing week at The Sheiling. It is a lovely, light filled home, very clean and seems much more spacious than in the photos. We stayed in March when it was cold outside, but the heating system was very efficient and so the house was always nice and warm. The sitting room has comfy sofas for relaxing and a big window to enjoy the view and the sunset. The kitchen is very well equipped for cooking. We slept in the King Room and the bed was very comfortable, with good linens and pillows. The location of the property has a good open view North and so we were able to photograph the Aurora from the garden of the property. We also saw Deer in the neighbouring garden and lots of garden birds. It was an easy walk into Arisaig and a very short drive to the beautiful beaches for which this area is renowned. Finally, Alison is a really good host, very responsive and cares about her guests. Communication was excellent. Thank you for sharing your lovely home.

Amazing house with everything you need. Dog friendly and lots of exploring for kids. The beds are super comfy. The views are pretty spectacular and the neighbours cows an chickens and rooster like to pay a visit.

All the local beaches shouldn't be missed despite the weather.
