Duncan's House

Description

Accommodation

SLEEPS: 5

Situated high above the magnificent Diabaig Bay,  ‘Duncan's House’ is a well-appointed, newly refurbished croft house.

It provides a haven of tranquility and comfort in the Torridon Mountains, an area that offers dramatic scenery, walking, fishing, mountaineering and abundant wildlife.

Continuously occupied by the same family for many generations and only recently  made available for holiday rental, it is a wonderful base for a truly memorable holiday.

The owners live close by (down the road!) and are on hand to arrange and advise on the many activities available.

The area offers everything from gentle, low level walks, through spectacular hillwalking to strenuous and demanding climbing on both mountain and rock for the more active.

Anglers will enjoy the loch and sea fishing.  Local boat-hire is also available.

There is permit-free fishing for brown trout on the hill lochs. Permits can be obtained for salmon fishing on the local rivers.

The magnificent surroundings will inspire the landscape/seascape painter and photographer alike.

Seals, otters and red deer are regularly seen and many unusual birds visit the area or reside here all year round. These include eagles, buzzards, black-throated divers, gannet and tern.

A beautiful walk to the village pier continues along a 7 mile coastal path to the magnificent beach at Red Point.

For many, a visit to Beinn Eighe Nature Reserve is high on the agenda.

Little wonder that many who visit the area year after year refer to it as Scotland's best kept secret.

It is indeed true that this is probably the last unspoiled area in Europe.
