Excellent location in beautiful surroundings. Cottage was very warm and comfortable and has everything you need. Views from the cottage are stunning and if you're lucky with the weather like we were, then look out for the most awesome sunsets from living room window. Loved sharing the garden with lots of happy, nest making birds. Wonderful holiday...thank you!

Tips for other travellers

We enjoyed the following.... Sound Bites...warm welcome (they love dogs) and decent food. The Old Library...bit cold inside so wear warm clothes...but food excellent and very friendly, efficient service. Camusdarrach Beach and the sand dunes there are well worth a visit! Waded on the shoreline with socks and shoes off but would be good for a wild swim. Silversands Trekking Centre for a long canter across the beach. Expect a warm welcome and great chat along the way. Larachmhor gardens are well worth a visit, beautiful and serene place with a wealth of plant and tree life. We pottered in here for ages. Arisaig circular walk was lovely and the tree swings are fun! Take a trip to Eigg....1 hour from Arisaig and hire Ebikes to get around. Recommended the burgers at the cafe on the pier. Lovely views too. If you go on a Wednesday you get 5 hours to explore.

Thank you for your lovely review! And Larachmhor is definitely a spot so often missed, so great tip. We hope to see you back again.

Absolutely loved this house. Peaceful location, so comfortable, everything you could need for a relaxing break. Unbelievable scenery made even better by the big windows to sit and look out. We did not want to leave! Hope we can come back again soon.

Great stay here. Nothing to suggest to improve on. The instructions were helpful. The added info on what restaurants etc were open when was a bonus. The little dog box with a blankets etc were thoughtful. Appreciated knowing that there wasn’t milk in the accommodation, so we can arrange that in advance of arrival. Everything was perfect for us, thank you!

Chlachain Inn is worth going for food and drink, but to book in advance.
