Customer Reviews of The Cottage, Lochinver - Sleeps 2
"Cosy idyllic little cottage in a beautiful highland village."
This is an ideal cottage for a couple. Comfortable sized kitchen and cosy if slightly old fashioned sitting room. We would have preferred double bed but understand twin beds may suit other renters. Good sized garden and good outlook over part of village. Central for walks round both sides of village which surrounds river running into sea loch. Good restaurants and pub in village. Ideal location for exploring assynt which is spectacular

"Traditional cottage in great location"
Nice, traditional cottage - very comfortable. The location is fantastic - 5 minutes walk from the village centre, including a good pub (the Caberfeidh) and the Lochinver pie shop (highly recommended!) Ideal for anyone wanting a peaceful base to explore the mountains of the North-West. We had a wonderful time there.
