The Surrounding Area.

Only a mile away is the village of Plockton, regarded by many as the most attractive village in the West Highlands. Plockton is quiet through most of the year but is a popular destination for visitors in the summer months. Particularly during its long established, small boat sailing regatta fortnight in August

There are many fine low level and coastal walks in and around the village where otters and birdlife can be spotted. For the more active there is sailing, kayaking, mountain biking, fishing and hill walking. Particularly popular areas are Torridon and Kintail, only a short journey away. The Plockton district is an area with interests for everyone.

At nearby Kyle of Lochalsh is the bridge over to the beautiful Isle of Skye. The island boasts spectacular mountain, cliff and seascapes and some unique geological formations. From there you can take a boat trip from Elgol, on the Bella Jane, to spot seals, dolphins and whales. Or why not visit the elusive and magical Loch Coruisk in the heart of the Cuillin mountains.
