The property

Kyle of Lochalsh 7 miles.

The Highlander is a well-appointed house situated near Loch Long in the village of Dornie, Highland.

The front of this abode boasts views of the famous Eilean Donan Castle and is 200 yards walking distance from the property.

Just next to Dornie Bridge, and the serene sea loch Duich, this delightful retreat offers a Smart TV and enclosed garden, making it a perfect escape for families or groups of friends seeking a picturesque getaway.

Park the car, take in the serene loch views then make your way to your new abode with a pretty front garden with gravel and potted plants.

Upon entering The Highlander, you are greeted by an inviting conservatory, offering a tranquil space to enjoy a morning cup of tea.

From here, step into the sitting room, where you can sink into the leather seating and warm up by the electric fire, while watching your favourite shows on the Smart TV.

The heart of the home is undoubtedly the kitchen, fully-equipped with all the essentials you need to prepare delicious meals.

Adjacent to the kitchen, the dining room provides seating for four, making it the perfect spot for enjoying home-cooked meals or planning the day's adventures.

When it's time to retire for the night, head upstairs to find two well-presented bedrooms, a king-size and a twin, both offering a serene retreat after a day of exploration.

The property also benefits from a ground-floor shower room, complete with a walk-in shower, basin, and WC, providing a refreshing space to prepare for the day ahead.

Outside, the enclosed rear garden is a haven for relaxation, boasting a well-kept lawn and outdoor furniture.

Here, you can enjoy alfresco dining or simply unwind with a good book, while soaking up the picturesque surroundings.

On the edge of the famous NC500 and just an hour and half away from the ferry to the Outer Hebrides, this cottage is the perfect base for exploring.

Further afield, a journey through the scenic Bealach na Ba Viewpoint is a must.

Be faithful to your camera and feast on panoramic views of the Wester Ross Landscape.

Notably, a short trip across the bridge will take you to the vantage location of the Kyleakin’s Castle Moil, an ancient site steeped in legend with breath-taking views across the Loch and towards Kyle of Lochalsh.

The Highlander is not just a house; it's the starting point of many legendary Highland adventures.

DORNIE

Kyle of Lochalsh 9 miles.

The picturesque village of Dornie sits amidst the stunning West Highland countryside, just nine miles from the bustling village of Kyle of Lochalsh. The village itself, a walker’s paradise, offers good amenities including a village shop, a local pub and numerous walking and cycling opportunities, with stunning views of the coastline and mountainous regions beyond to be enjoyed. Nearby Kyle of Lochalsh, known as the gateway to the Isle of Skye, offers a range of shops, hotels and restaurants and boasts a busy harbour that plays host to a variety of cargo, fishing and occasional passenger vessels. Nearby Eilean Donan Castle, one of Scotland's most famous and popular sights, is perched at the end of a stone causeway on the shores of Loch Duich, whilst further south is the Glenelg Peninsula, a tranquil backwater, which is beautiful, remote and relatively undiscovered. An easy drive north of Kyle is the charming village of Plockton, famous for its palm trees, yacht-filled bay and the nearby hamlet of Duirinish with Highland cattle which wander the streets! Alternatively, cross the Skye Bridge to Skye itself and explore all that the mystical Isle has to offer.
