Ardoch Cottage is beautifully restored highland cottage (sleeping 8) in an idyllic part of the highlands. Just minutes from the sea, the views are spectacular over Loch Kishorn towards Skye and the Applecross Hills. This is an amazing place to relax and get away from it all - or to have a more active holiday with numerous outdoor pursuits nearby. There are stunning walks on the doorstep (both in the hills and along the coast), and you can walk for miles and not see another person. This is a remote part of Scotland and sparsely populated.

Wester Ross is also a great area for bird-watching with lots of sea birds (particularly wildfowl and waders) on the seashore in front of the cottage - you can see a huge range of birds including oyster catchers, ringed plover, turnstones, eider ducks, mergansters and herons. In the summer, black-throated divers fly above as they nest on the inland hill lochans. Nearby are Lochcarron, Shieldaig, Applecross and Kishorn - lovely villages set in beautiful countryside.

There are also plenty of excellent places to eat in the area and just 10 minutes walk away is the Kishorn Seafood Cafe - perfect if you don't want to drive. Within 40 minutes drive there are many other great restaurants including The Applecross Inn which has won many award for its food.

Ardoch Cottage is very comfortable, warm and spacious, and just a few minutes walk from the sea - shallow here so safe for children. This is a fantastic place for a family holiday - children just love the freedom, and of course the beach.

Accommodation:
On the ground floor is a spacious and bright, sunny sitting room with a wood-burning stove - great for relaxing in front of in the evenings. The views are gorgeous - across Loch Kishorn to the Pass of the Cattle and the Applecross Hills. The kitchen is modern and well equipped with everything you might need in a self-catering cottage. There is a twin bedded room and a bathroom with a bath and electric shower.
The separate utility/drying area is very useful if you have been walking and need to dry wet-weather clothes quickly (although there are many hot, sunny days here too!).

On the first floor there is a large bedroom with a double bed and two twin bedded rooms, as well as a large bathroom. Outside there is lots of space to park and the courtyard surrounding the cottage is a great place for children to safely play.
