Living so remote can be exciting and challenging, Guests will drink the water pumped up from a well over 100 foot deep as the water makes its way to the River, all fully maintained and safe but, no additives, just a beautiful flavour. The Building is 175 years old, it does creak a bit, it is made from solid granite with no blocks the same size, to cut a door through the granite to make a door took the builder a week and the loss of a lot of equipment. The air is very pure & the skies clear, there is very little light pollution. It is possible at times to see the Aurora Borealis, and on extremely clear nights the Milky Way can be seen by the naked eye in the sky. Celebrities have stayed with us, we provided accommodation for 3 weeks for all the drivers & staff working on the film 'Stardust'. We have Blue Plaques on the outside to provide additional interest & information for guests. There is a car park at the front of the main building for guests staying in Stag View. Owl View has a dedicated parking space & Woodlands Rest & Tonita guests can park directly outside the properties. All bookings include breakfast. Guests can ring or email the host, Rita or Ama

This ground floor flat sits at the right hand end of a building that was originally a hunting lodge built by the laird who lived in Strathpeffer in 1850. The current owners purchased the property in 2004 since when it has retained much of its original charm, the two cottages were guest accommodation.. The property has extensive rear grounds that go down to the River Black Water, there is free fishing. Enjoy the tranquil river from the bank on the seating available. Some of the smallest birds in the UK can be seen in the grounds, with a good selection of Raptors, Stags, Pine Martens, Badgers. There are beautiful views of the mountains and hills, the property sits within a 'basin' and is surrounded by mountains, & can be seen all the way to Ullapool, great for guests who are both social walkers & more serious Munro baggers. The property is perfectly placed for travelling the NC500, for going out & about to visit the sights or just a quick stop over before travelling to the outer Hebrides or the Orkneys Locally there are a number of Waterfalls, the Falls at Rogie Falls, 15 minutes away, were made famous by Robert Louis Stevenson who sat and drew the falls and put the picture in his book, Kidnapped, the main stone is still there to be seen. There is the Corrieshalloch Gorge along the road at 200 feet deep, Falls of Measach 15 minutes away, Castle Leod as seen in the TV series Outlander 20 minutes away, Blackmuir Wood 14 miles away, The visitor centre at Culloden Moor is well worth a visit, just to name a few local visitor attractions. If you like 'scary' then you can visit Applecross with its most scary high roads, if you like remote landscapes then we are in the middle of moon like landscapes and scenery. If you are on motorbike, then we sit on the third most popular European road for bikers. This property sits in one of the most exciting, diverse and beautiful places in Scotland.
