Region: From the lush green farmlands of the Borders to the ruggedness of the Highlands, the Scots are proud of their land and identity. Scotland also has some of Britain’s best beaches with glorious stretches of clean sand over which to roam.

Town: Just ten miles from the main route to the Isle of Skye, the small coastal village of Glenelg lies on the shores of the Sound of Sleat, surrounded by scenery deemed magnificent even by West Highland standards. The glen has preserved its unspoilt beauty and sense of isolation, yet remains within easy reach of the more well-known centres of attraction in the area. Overlooking the Isle of Skye, it is situated on the route once used by drovers from Skye to get their cattle to the mainland, crossing over the narrow Kyle Rhea straits. A couple of miles from the village on the Arnisdale road you will find Sandaig bay, named "Camusfearna" by Gavin Maxwell in his novel Ring of Bright Water, and where there is a cairn for his beloved otter Edal. Glenelg also has the best preserved Pictish Brochs on mainland Scotland. The ruins of Bernera Barracks, an 18th Century garrison for English government troops, still stand next to the village.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in
Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy
This spot is out of the way of the daily grind. It is a bit remote and is more akin to an immersion in the rural Scottish lifestyle. Set on an estate with several other properties, this is a working farm with sheep, cows and all the sites and sounds that go with it! The property listing contact never replied and the description of beds/rooms does not match the pictures provided. There is a main floor bedroom with a queen size bed. 2 bedrooms on the second floor each have 2 twin beds. This area was much warmer, heat rises. We encountered unseasonably hot temperatures, no fans or moving air other than a few windows. Nice and clean, but not stocked with any cooking basic seasonings or supplies and it is quite a drive, if the local store is not open to get groceries! A short drive to the ferry and lock, great food at the Glenelg Inn too.

A beautiful house in a gorgeous location. Very comfy and cozy. The kitchen is huge and well-stocked with cooking equipment, cutlery and china. The bathroom is large and clean. The area is just lovely. We really enjoyed our stay here and would highly recommend this cottage.
