Customer Reviews of Ruighe Cottage, Lochinver - Sleeps 6
"We have stayed in many holiday cottages in Scotland, England, Wales and Ireland and this is our favourite! The cottage is in a lovely, peaceful setting ideal for exploring North West Scotland - yet it is only a very short drive from the village of Lochinver. Very well equipped, nicely decorated and furnished and the owner is also very helpful. We hope to return soon!"
