Description

Beautiful views, clean fresh air and peaceful surroundings allow you to recharge from a hectic life. During those days weather restricts access to the breathtaking surroundings there is a 40” smart tv with Netflix availability, Freesat or use the connected dvd player and choose from our selection of dvd’s.

UNBELIEVABLE BEAUTY
Within walkable distance from the house you will find incredible beauty! Whether hiking the Culag Woods, River Inver and Glencanisp circuit, Inverkirkaig falls or Achmelvic beach you will be blown away by the beauty of the area.
SURROUNDED BY WILDLIFE
With some of the most diverse bird life in the UK, this area is an excellent location for avid bird watchers. Others may be seeking a glimpse of rare species of wildlife like red deer. And keep an eye out for sightings of dolphins, seals and porpoises as you walk along the coast.
ENCHANTING COMFORTS
In some ways a holiday spent at Cruachan Holiday Home feels as if you have gone back to a simpler time. Keep toasty with the wood fire stove while reading a good book. Through feed out and watch the different species of birds enjoy a meal from the large viewing windows in the main living area. Take a walk out of the back gate for a fantastic view of the ocean while enjoying the sounds of the wind. Enjoy one of many hikes through the woods, along streams and rivers or walk to the Inverkirkaig shore and listen to the crashing waves.
ABOUT US
For almost two decades our family has been enjoying living and vacationing at Cruachan, as well as, enjoying the many excellent restaurants and outdoor activities in and around Lochinver, Ullapool and Kylesku (click here for more information). In 2016 my wife’s father decided to move back home to be closer to us and in 2017 we decided to share Cruachan, the home we love so much, with others.

“We only wish we could have got there”
Unfortunately, due to illness, we were unable to use the accommodation ourselves but our son and daughter were. Annoyingly he said that the accommodation was Very Good. They loved the space, the light, fire, beautiful views, nice smells??, well equipped kitchen and the fact that the place was well maintained throughout. He stated that it was “Brilliant “. ( I still have to ask him about the “nice smells”). They also were very appreciative of the red wine in the welcome in the welcome pack!

“Comfortable cottage in a beautiful part of the world”
Stayed in July 21 with my wife and 2 young children. Great base to travel around this stunning area. Luckily our week had pretty good weather so we were able to hop in the car and get to the beautiful beaches at Achmelvich and Clachtoll within 20/30 minutes. Plenty of other sites and walks all around the area, and brilliant for road cycling if that's your thing. The cottage itself is large and really comfortable. It has everything you need. It's about 5/10 mins down the road from Lochinver on a quiet single track road. The owner even left us a nice little welcome pack with wine, shortbread and tablet. All-in-all, we had a fantastic week. Highly recommend.
