About this property

Self-catering Cottage In Glenelg Looking Over The Sleat To Skye

Glenbeag Cottage is a lovely, bright 4* family holiday home in the magical west highland coastal village of Glenelg, overlooking the Sound of Sleat to the Isle of Skye. This self catering cottage is an ideal location for wildlife, beach, water or hill based holidays, as relaxed or active as you wish to be. The cottage is near the renowned Glenelg Inn and a minutes walk from the village shop and the seashore. It is in a stunning area that includes the site of Gavin Maxwell’s ‘Camusfearna’ at Sandaig with its white coral beaches. Glenbeag has some of the best preserved Iron Age brochs. Close by are Munros including Beinn Sgritheall and the Five Sisters of Kintail. And you may still ‘sail over the sea to Skye’ on the traditional Glenelg ferry crossing at Kylerhea.

The cottage is beautifully quaint. Situated right in the heart of peaceful Glenelg, you get a wonderful view of Kyle Rhea and the Isle of Skye.For such a cold November stay, the cottage is well insulated and kept us both nice and toasty as we watched the snow fall, and the additional underfloor heating really makes the difference for your toes!The beds are large and comfortable, and the bedrooms have more than enough space for all your needs.The kitchen was perfect for the two of us, but could easily accommodate a family. All the expected cutlery and cooking utensils are present and useable.The living room is sizeable, and whilst the TV may be a little small by modern standards, let's be honest; that's not why you've come here!The front garden is ideal for a little picnic in the summer, or sitting outside at night during the winter to watch the stars.Overall, it's a cottage you absolutely must stay at in a location that you absolutely must see!

Amazing Cottage

Pleasant stay at the cottage with loch so close by. Had a wonderful time and lots of memories to take back. Looking forward for the next visit soon. Even on a rainy day(where we could not go out as planned) we enjoyed staying at the cottage, provided lots of board games, Music and Film collection. Amazing place to stay with nearby attractions.

Spent a week in Glenelg in this very well appointed cottage. Cosy and comfortable with everything you could want including 2 bikes. Location is perfect next door to local Inn which serves excellent food, right in the heart of the village and a 2 minute walk to local shop. Would highly recommend.

Perfectly placed, perfectly equipped

The cottage is ideally situated close to the shop and the pub (and no, the close proximity to the latter has no impact, noise etc.). Can't fault the way it has been equipped, everything you could need is there and someone put real thought into this.

Lovely property, good size and immaculately maintained. Very well stocked with essentials for an informative and comfortable stay. In the heart of a fabulous area for wildlife, scenery and historical sites. Next door to a cosy pub, with a lovely atmosphere and great food. Easy access to Skye. Definitely recommend as a place to get away from the hectic daily grind whilst still enjoying all the comforts of home.
