About this property

Shore Cottage offers beautiful accommodation for families or couples looking for a relaxing break in a spectacular coastal setting.

Shore Cottage is a newly renovated house, completed in 2016 to a very high standard. The well-laid out open plan kitchen, dining and sitting rooms provide uninterrupted views of Loch Gairloch, with a covered deck which allows you to enjoy the great outdoors whatever the weather. In the living room there is also a cosy log-burning stove. Downstairs, an additional TV room allows relaxing evenings for all – no disagreements about what to watch! In addition, there are a comfortable twin bedroom and separate large shower room downstairs. Upstairs, there are 2 peaceful king size bedrooms with beautiful views over Loch Gairloch, and a separate family bathroom.

The land belonging to the house stretches along an acre of coastline, but the immediate garden is fenced. From the house and garden otters, porpoise, dolphin, seals and many seabirds are often seen.

Shore Cottage is set in both a beautiful and a convenient location. While being within short walking distance of beaches, boat trips, shops, galleries, golf course, pubs and café’s, it is also in a peaceful secluded area – the perfect spot for relaxing.

We have spent a lot of our life on holiday in the area so if there is anything we can help with please just ask.

Gulf stream magic

A wonderful location. We were blessed with a good few days of warm weather and could sit out watch the seals at play. There is plenty to do nearby and some excellent places to eat. The house is well laid out and easy to settle in to. The host, Andrew, is pleasure to deal with.

A Perfect View

Andrew’s cottage is really outstanding. I would give six stars if I could. The views from the cottage, terrace and garden are just stunning, we sat and watch the world go by. The cottage is very well equipped and comfortable and Andrew’s communications are helpful and friendly. The surrounding countryside is stunning with mountain views and beautiful coastline. Badachro Inn is well worth a visit for lunch.

Beautiful Shore Cottage

The cottage is beautifully built and sits in a stunning garden faced with dramatic rock cliffs leading into the sea at Gairloch. It affords endless views of the changing tides and spectacular cloud formations. It possesses all the amenities and is beautifully situated as a base from which to visit the rest of the Highlands.

Amazing views and direct access to the sea

One of the best properties we ve ever stayed in. Well equipped and stylish cosy interior. Amazing views from every window. Beautiful garden and wonderful to be able to swim and see seals from the house. Nice walk to harbour and local shop and post office and to Gairloch beach from the house. We ll definitely come back..
