Just an idyllic cottage for two set on two levels. The view north onto the Loch can change by the minute and its great to have seals, otters and seabirds right on the doorstep. Its well placed for walks, with ready access into the Fisherfields and towards Fyon Loch and the nearby Munroes, likewise some splendid beaches with views across The MinchesRead more. When the weather is inclement, its a great place to settle down with a good book and glass of wine and a radiating log burner. Hide

We had the best weekend at the Pottager. We went for a relaxing honeymoon and it couldn't have been better. We didn't use the Hottub because we were too busy exploring the local area, and when we got back, we opted for board games,champagne, and the log burner. The accommodation has everything you could possibly need, and the owner is very welcominRead moreg. Would definitely recommend a stay Hide

Beautiful, cosy accommodation in a tranquil location on the shore of Loch Ewe. This was our second stay and every bit as good as the first. We enjoyed some lovely walks right from the cottage door as well as others from just a short drive away. We never tired of looking out over the ever changing view of the loch, watching a grey heron and a grey sRead moreeal fishing regularly and an otter briefly one evening, as well as a couple of stags grazing very early one morning. Would not hesitate to return. Hide
