About this property

Strathpeffer 3 miles. This well-equipped, detached Strathpeffer cottage stands on the shores of beautiful Loch Achilty, in the magical Scottish Highlands. One of a small and exclusive group of holiday properties, this Strathpeffer cottage occupies a truly spectacular location, boasting beautiful loch views. This Highland cottage is ideal for a couple, a small family group or a group of friends who will embrace the outdoor adventures available on their doorstep, whilst appreciating the peaceful atmosphere. There are two comfortable bedrooms and a bright open plan living area with a well-equipped kitchen and doors leading out to the patio, an ideal place for a quiet read, or simply enjoying each other’s company whilst gazing across the water’s edge. The pretty spa town of Strathpeffer is close by and well worth a visit, especially in the summer months when the local pipe band often offers traditional entertainment. Further afield, the Highlands are home to spectacular locations, and this Strathpeffer cottage is ideally situated to visit Skye, Plockton, Inverness and Loch Ness to mention but a few. Why not stay closer to home and explore the wonderful cycle paths, walking routes and wildlife that the area has in abundance, or spend a peaceful afternoon casting a line into the loch? A great location and a delightful Highlands cottage to be enjoyed throughout the year. Note: This cottage is next to Refs. 904200 and 921861, together they sleep 14.

Often compared to a Bavarian Mountain resort, the picturesque spa village of Strathpeffer owes its growth to the discovery of water springs during the 1700s, and was declared in 1819 to be the healthiest drinking water in Britain! The original Spa Pavilion has been magnificently restored after a period of disuse and now serves as a venue for a variety of events, including concerts, dances, dramas and exhibitions.
