From the owner

Peacefully and privately situated on 110 acres of croft land yet only 1.5 miles from the fishing village of Lochinver and 2 miles from the beautiful white sandy beaches at Achmelvich, Torbreck Croft is comfortable and well equipped, perfect for families, small groups or couples. The croft is situated off of the single track B869, part of the NC500 Drumbeg loop.

The house has 3 bedrooms upstairs, 1 double, 1 large twin and 1 small twin. There is also a shower room. Downstairs there is a sitting room with open fire, a spacious dining kitchen with wood burning stove, shower room and large porch/sunroom with seating. The dining table can be extended to seat 6. 100% cotton bedding and new mattresses on all beds.

Bed linen, towels, logs, electric heating and wi-fi are included and there are a selection of games and books. There are also digital radios which you can connect to with bluetooth for music from your phone, an XBox 360 and a flat screen television.

Outside there is a shed perfect for storing outdoor gear and a picnic table and seating for making the most of the house's southerly facing aspect. There are additional deck chairs and a BBQ stored in the shed.

From the garden it is possible to walk freely across the croft land and for miles around including to the Manse Loch, one of hundreds of hill lochs in the area, where brown and sea trout can be caught. Even closer to hand, fish on little Loch an Ordain on the croft, 2 minutes walk from the house. We have built a jetty for your convenience. Fish for salmon on the nearby Inver and Kirkaig Rivers. Permits required, check out Assynt Angling website. At the end of the day, store your rod safely on our purpose built rod rack.

Interaction with guest

Torbreck Croft sits peacefully back off the single track B869 road down it's own good track. The B869 is on the Drumbeg loop of the NC500. There is lots to do! Visit the wonderful unspoilt white sandy beaches nearby. Achmelvich (2 miles), Clachtoll (4.5 miles) & Clashnessie (6.5 miles) are the closest but with some exploring you can find many more secluded gems. Travel a little further to Oldeshoremore and Sandwood Bay, both within an hours drive, or up to Balnakeil at Durness. Walk along the coast or across the hills and moors, the choice of routes is endless and wherever you go there are stunning views of Assynt and you may not see another person all day. From the cottage, you can walk for miles across the croft and beyond.
