About this property
The Old Coastguard Station, Helmsdale
Take it easy at this unique and tranquil getaway. The views are simply breathtaking.
The Old Coastguard Station has been fully renovated and refurbished. Downstairs, offers a family bathroom, 3 double bedrooms (one en-suite), all with spectacular sea views.
Walk upstairs to be greeted by open plan living room/ diner that leads onto a modern kitchen & separate utility room. There are panoramic views of the Moray Firth and the northern lights often make an appearance.
There are gardens to the front and rear with an outdoor seating patio area.
The beach is quite literally a stone throw away. There are miles of coastal walks to enjoy.
Helmsdale offers several local restaurants and a spar shop for every day essentials. Nearby Golspie and Brora offer larger supermarkets.
