This delightful coastal abode in Latheron makes a welcoming retreat for couples or small families seeking fresh air, history and wild Highland scenery. The pretty rural village sits on the east coast of the Scottish Highlands, surrounded by dramatic cliffs and sweeping North Sea views. With a convenience store, restaurant and a pub 3.5 miles from the cottage, you’re never too far from everyday essentials and places to eat. Latheronwheel Harbour and its rocky beach are 1 mile away, while peaceful woodland walks await at Latheronwheel Fairy Glen (1.5 miles). Head to Lybster (3.5 miles) to potter around its fishing harbour, then learn about the industry that shaped a village at the Waterlines Heritage Centre (5 miles). Other options are Whaligoe Steps, the prehistoric Grey Cairns of Camster and Badbea Clearance Village (all within 12 miles). For a grand day out, visit magnificent Dunrobin Castle in Golspie (33 miles away).
Step inside and leave outdoor gear in the handy entrance hall before stepping into the ground-floor lounge, which has wonderful sea views, comfortable seating, a Smart TV with soundbar and an electric wood burner to keep you cosy. A neutral décor with wood accents and tasteful artwork makes for an appealing and welcoming aesthetic. Continue through to the well-equipped kitchen and dining area, where you can prepare meals and gather around the table. A separate utility room containing the washing machine provides extra practical space and opens directly onto the rear garden. The stylish ground-floor bathroom has a shower over the bath and WC. Upstairs, occupants of the double bedroom will wake to fabulous sea views each day. The second bedroom has bunk beds comprising two full-sized single beds.
Outside, absorb those wonderful views from the pretty front garden or head to the rear, where the large, fully enclosed garden is perfect for dogs and children to play. It also has seating and dining area for al fresco meals. In good weather, you can light the charcoal BBQ and settle in for a laid-back dinner in the fresh Highland air. Off-road private parking is available for four cars.
