An outstanding cottage in an awe-inspiring setting, on a special stretch of Scotland’s west coast.
An outstanding cottage in an awe-inspiring setting, on a special stretch of Scotland’s west coast. Fantastic location for an active holiday, as well as being a super-remote getaway.. Ground Floor:
Living/dining room: Smart TV, Woodburner, Patio Doors Leading To Decking
Kitchen: Breakfast Area, Electric Range, Fridge/Freezer, Dishwasher
Utility Room: Washing Machine, Tumble Dryer
Bedroom 1: Double (4ft 6in) Bed
Shower Room: Walk-In Shower, Toilet
First Floor:
Bedroom 2: Kingsize (5ft) Bed
Bedroom 3: 2 x Single (3ft) Beds
Bedroom 4: Single (3ft) Bed
Bathroom 2: Bath With Shower Over, Heated Towel Rail, Toilet. Wood fire burner heating system, electricity, bed linen and towels included. Welcome pack. Initial logs for wood burner included.. Garden with decked area, garden furniture and firepit. Private parking for 3 cars. No smoking. Please note: This property has a natural water supply from a spring.. The owners have lovingly looked after Cliff Cottage, and this detached property is perfect for a family holiday. Before you enter the front door you’ll notice raised beds in the front garden with vegetables that you are welcome to help yourself to in season! The interior is finished to a great standard, with many bespoke features and lovely local artworks displayed. Cliff Cottage makes the ideal base for a holiday in the Highlands, and Applecross is a very, very special part of Scotland. People often mistakenly overlook it in favour of Skye or Loch Ness, and many drive past the peninsula when journeying along the North Coast 500. To visit Applecross is to be treated to a highlight of travel experiences.
Making your way to Applecross is an adventure, particularly if you take the southern road. The Bealach na Bà sounds like something out of Lord of the Rings, and when you get your eyes on this mountain pass, you’ll agree that it would sit pride of place in a Tolkien adventure. It’s a steep drive from sea level to over 2,000ft, and one of the best routes to experience in the UK and Europe. Reaching the top, the expansive, rugged moors of the Applecross interior stretch out in front of you, and the views back down the glacial carved valley you’ve driven up are truly awe inspiring. This is what the Highlands are really about! Descend down to the shore on the west coast of Applecross where there’s an inn, cafés, a restaurants and lots of amenities. This is the hub of the peninsula, and where you’ll visit plenty of times during your stay. Cliff Cottage is to the north of Applecross Bay, only 7 miles up the coast.
Two miles before Cliff Cottage’s driveway is Sand Bay, which is one of the best beaches on the west coast, one to visit a few times during your stay. Cliff Cottage is accessed via a track that leads down to this sheltered and charming spot for a holiday base. Beyond Cliff Cottage, the road continues along the entire west and north coast of the Applecross Peninsula, and is a great scenic route to take during your holiday. It gives you access to Shieldaig and Torridon. You are just a stone’s throw away from the coast and Applecross is your backdrop. Book now and forever be grateful that you did! beach 2 miles.
The water is from a spring, well or borehole, and not a mains supply.
Only dogs allowed at the property.
