Nestled on a wild Highland hillside, this tastefully designed modern interpretation of a traditional croft house offers stunning vistas across Loch Ewe and its picturesque surroundings. Croft 34 lies within the remote crofting village of Mellon Charles, a mere half a mile from it’s beautiful sandy beach and just 2.5 miles from Aultbea.
Access the cottage via a single-track road, through well-spaced croft dwellings. Enter a unified lounge and dining space, adorned with thoughtfully positioned windows that showcase the awe-inspiring scenery.
Sink into the comfort of the cosy seating area, complete with a wood-burning stove and the added warmth of underfloor heating downstairs and radiators upstairs. Prepare meals in the modern, well-equipped kitchen, where even the task of washing dishes offers stunning views.
The accommodation includes a stylish double bedroom and a twin bedroom, providing a restful retreat for guests. Convenience is key with stylish shower rooms located both upstairs and downstairs, along with a utility room housing a washing machine.
Outside, relax on the patio and soak up the tranquil beauty of your surroundings. Ample private parking is available, with extra room provided in the newly built outhouse, perfect for storing bicycles.
If you love the great outdoors, Croft 34 is the perfect base to explore the rugged coastline, pristine beaches, heather-clad hills, and tranquil lochs of the Northwest Highlands. Whatever your outdoor pursuit, you'll find endless opportunities for adventure in this stunning location.
