The charming settlement of Glenelg could be considered ‘off the beaten track’ however, once here, many tourist hotspots are easily reached especially with the use of the local ferry (running from April to October) taking you ‘over the sea to Skye’. Even though many tourist hotspots are available, guests may find they don’t want to stray far with so much to enjoy on the doorstep. Soak up the freshest of Highland air, take to the hills, go for a paddle, become engrossed in a novel, and switch off from modern life. The Glenelg Inn next door is renowned for its warm Highland welcome, and the local shop provides all your essentials. Glenelg itself is peaceful and remote, but it’s also within easy reach of some of Scotland’s most popular tourist destinations including the Isle of Skye, Plockton, Applecross and Eilean Donan Castle easily. This area is paradise for those who love getting their boots muddy or spotting some rare wildlife.
The area is one of outstanding beauty and the views of Skye can literally change minute by minute with sunsets being particularly memorable. Glen Mhor benefits from having many amenities nearby, whilst being surrounded by some of Scotland’s most dramatic and stunning scenery on offer.
Only dogs allowed at the property.

What a find! A lovely little cottage in the heart of a tiny village on the coast. Pub and village shop very close as are walks and beaches. Highly recommended!

A very comfortable and clean cottage in a great location in the village of Glenelg. The cottage was well equipped, with a fantastic range cooker and good kitchen area. Lovely comfortable sitting room and great shower and bath. We loved the Glenelg area with great walking at Sandaig, Corran/Arnisdale and Moyle. We even took the wee ferry to Skye and back via Kyle of Lochalsh. Recommend Hectors Bothy for lunch. We had a great holiday at the cottage despite the weather.

Lovely cottage in a lovely setting. This is the second time we have stayed in a period of 6 weeks. There were a couple of issues though. Not sure why but the garden was not very tidy and the grass was badly needing cut. As we had our dog with us this was an issue as there was a lot of rain so she always got soaking wet when having a last *** at night. The other issue was the age and quality of the frying pans. These were badly marked and the coating is coming off so definitely need replacing.
