Views from the ground floor extend to Loch Shin, little Loch Shin and beyond to Ben More Assynt. Upstairs the double and twin bedrooms are fitted with total black-out blinds to ensure you sleep well in the light summer months. We provide use of bed linen, so you don't need to bring those bulky items. Likewise, we provide towels. We encourage wildlife to the large garden area, and throughout the year we are visited by a vast number of bird species. You will certainly hear the Tawny owls at night. We have up to 5 hedgehogs visiting at night and we have a good stock of food which we encourage you to use. Other visitors include Hares (with young), red deer, bats (midge eaters), and although rarely, Pine Martin. We provide ample parking, which is reached via our private tree covered driveway. The village of Lairg is 5 to 10 minutes walk, where shops, restaurants, a fish and chip shop and a bar are all close by, but distant enough so that you will never be disturbed by them. The area is perfect for walking, fishing (Loch Craggie and Loch Shin, plus numerous rivers), nature watching (including Dalchork bird hide) and mountain biking (nationally recognised trails at Golspie and Balblair just 10 minutes away by car). We hold a Scottish self satering short term let license, issued January 2024. Energy is 100% from renewable sources and our EPC rating is D. Tourist License / Licencia de turismo N °: HI-00410-F

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews

Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.

When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.

Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.

Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.
