From the owner

This Studio Apartment is finished to a very high standard and has been thoughtfully designed to provide boutique self-catering of a high standard at an affordable price.

The vaulted ceiling and open layout, under floor heating, attention to detail and stunning views of Loch Snizort offer a unique opportunity for an idyllic holiday for one or two people and ideal for a honeymoon. There is no extra charge for heating, bed linen and towels.

The kitchen which is well equipped and the view from the kitchen window should make washing up a pleasure! Eco cleaning products are supplied. A table and dining chairs are located adjacent the kitchen.

Two comfortable swivel chairs are the main feature in the welcoming lounge area and are carefully positioned to make full use of the large picture window giving an expansive, uninterrupted view over Loch Snizort Beag to the Outer Hebrides on the horizon. Various lighting options are provided to aid relaxation.

The King-sized bed with superior mattress and quality bedding await guests at the end of the day to offer the potential of a good night's sleep. A fitted wardrobe with ample storage, bedside cabinets and wall-fitted reading lamps complete the restful effect.

The spacious shower room is particularly striking having a walk-in shower with large rainfall showerhead. Good lighting, large mirror and fine towels complement the look.
