Situated on the shores of the beautiful river Ewe, The Narrows is a bright, detached holiday cottage. Set in its own private and secluded gardens, it offers peace and tranquillity in a stunning setting. The Narrows is situated just off the picturesque North Coast 500 route, on one of the most scenic parts of this renowned and stunning coastal route. There are superb walks direct from the cottage along the riverbank and through the surrounding hills. The immediate area is a wildlife enthusiast’s paradise. Whales, dolphins, sea eagles and otters are all seen close by, and Pine Martin visit the picnic table just outside the window.

A total gem of a place. Super clean too. Even the windows were spotless!We could not fault anything about the property. Loved it. Only issue was no phone signal, but that was EE, my partner was on Sky mobile and he was fine.

First time visiting the Poolewe area and this was the perfect home for the week. Stunning location with beautiful views to wake up to, and the cottage itself is perfect. And our daily visit from a local stag just topped off an amazing escape from the daily grind.
