This thoughtfully decorated cottage lies close to the centre of Strontian, next to Loch Sunart in the West Highlands of Scotland. The surrounding area boasts enchanting woodlands and unspoilt countryside, making Horlsey Cottage a superb base for families looking to get their outdoor fix. After a day of traversing wild walking routes, curl up in the sitting room, presented with chesterfield seating in front of a woodburning stove and a TV so you’ll have no trouble easing into your evening. Beyond here is the kitchen, amply equipped with all the necessities for preparing a home-cooked meal before gathering the family around the dining table to tuck into a sumptuous supper. As the evening draws to a close, choose between the double and twin bedroom, served by two boutique style bathrooms, one with a roll-top feature bath and the other with a bath and shower over, enhanced with contemporary fixtures and tiling. Take a refreshing drink outside and sit within the spacious garden, offering plenty of room to enjoy family games whilst your canine companion stretches their legs. The village of Strontian offers a selection of hotels with fine dining and bar menus, along with a couple of shops for picking up any forgotten essentials. Walkers will be in awe of the surrounding area; meander along the village paths leading up to the open moor and dropping down to the river valley or take a stroll along the idyllic shoreline where you can spot otters and sea eagles! With Loch Sunart on the doorstep, guests can bring a small boat and take advantage of the local slipway and enjoy some watersports. If you fancy a day by the coast then drive along the winding single track road to Sanna Bay, one of the most stunning beaches on the Ardnamurcha Peninsula, here you can lounge on sandy dunes, swim in turquoise waters, explore the rocky coves and look out for an array of coastal birds – it’s a great place to lose yourself. With the Ariundle Oakwood National Nature Reserve within striking distance, Horsley Cottage provides a delightful base with plenty of outdoor opportunity in the Scottish Highlands.

Reviews
The cottage this winter was warm and beautiful. The decor is modern yet old to suit that cottage feel. Lots of space for cooking and eating in the kitchen area. The upstairs was simply beautiful. Just a few minutes walk away from the water, with many walking trails throughout the area. The open fire in the living area gives it that homey feeling. Look forward to visiting again.
An absolutely stunning cottage thoughtfully designed in huge tranquil garden grounds. Plenty of walks right on the door step along with two hotels with restaurants. For a simple meal, we ate at the Strontain Hotel which is literally 2 minutes walk through the woodland, a little more upmarket was the Kilcamb - it was excellent. We took a trip to Sanna Beech and Mull, both not too far away highly advice both. Thank you to the owners of the cottage; Elaine and Stephen have lovingly restored the cottage.
