Bayview

Bayview suits couples and individuals after a quiet base on the west coast of Scotland. The single-storey property is all on one level: a combined living, dining and kitchen space, one double bedroom, and a shower room. The kitchen has an electric cooker, microwave, fridge and washing machine if you need them. A seating area outside overlooks Gairloch Bay, with views across to Raasay, Skye and the Torridon Mountains. One car can park on site, and one well-behaved pet stays free.

Gairloch village lies within walking distance, with a pub, restaurant, chip shop, butcher and small shops to hand. Two other mini-markets, cafés, a golf course by the beach and gift shops are also nearby. The location is a launchpad for exploring further: Torridon and Applecross lie south, Loch Broom and Assynt to the north. Electricity, wi-fi, bed linen and towels are included. No smoking inside.
