A small stream runs through the garden and you can watch the cows and sheep all round. Attadale Estate offers glorious walking (including two Munros), loch and river fishing. Up in the hills, you can walk all day without seeing anyone. If you enjoy mountain biking, you have lots of opportunities here. You are near the sea.

360/5000 Un cottage spacieux, cosy et agréable dans un environnement magnifique. Idéalement situé pour visiter le Nord des Highlands et l'île de Skye. Applecross, Gairloch, Torridon sont des lieux que nous vous recommandons à proximité de Locharron. Que ce soit à pied ou en voiture, toute le région est superbe et mérite que l'on s'y attarde. Les jardins d'Attadale, inclus dans la réservation, sont un véritable bijou à ne pas manquer. Alec et Joanna, nos hôtes, sont disponibles et de bons conseils. Quelle que soit la question, ils réagissent et répondent en un temps record. Pour les amoureux de la nature, de nombreux oiseaux et cerfs parfois très proches, sont un autre point d'intérêt. Nous y retournerons avec plaisir.

Authentic and beautifully renovated cottage (even better than the photo's on the site suggest), clean and very well-equipped. The garden is spacious, with a lovely stream, and the best views of Attadale estate and Loch Carron. The estate itself is wonderful, especially for those who love hiking and/or fishing. Very friendly owners and Mrs. Watson at the launderette! The gardens are extensive and lovingly designed and maintained; plenty to discover. The same goes for the very scenic area; there is a lot to see and do. We would warmly recommend this property to anyone!

Location bien équipée malgré l'absence de lave vaisselle et l'absence de lave linge dans la location (lave linge disponible dans un autre bâtiment). Maison bien décorée, très tranquille. Petites attentions prévues pour les locataires: biscuits, fleurs et boite d'oeufs. Par contre, ce qui surprenant c'est que personne n'est là que ce soit à l'arrivée ou au départ. Je recommande vivement cette location.

Ce cottage correspondait exactement à ce que nous recherchions : un hébergement simple mais confortable dans un environnement calme. La vue sur le Loch Carron et les montagnes environnantes le matin au réveil, le son de la cascade, les moutons dans les champs, apercevoir un cerf en rentrant le soir, tout cela était un ravissement quotidien. Les enfants de leur côté ont adoré jouer dans le ruisseau qui coule dans le jardin. Le cottage possède tout le confort pour accueillir une famille de 5 personnes (6 au maximum), le petit poêle a été apprécié les jours de pluie. L'emplacement est idéal pour visiter la côte ouest des Highlands, et apprécier autant les lochs que la montagne. Des balades à pieds sont possibles au départ du cottage et les jardins d'Attadale, dont l'accès est gratuit pour les résidents des cottages, est magnifique et à visiter absolument. Nous sommes ravis de notre séjour.
