We've been coming to Kingairloch for a number of years but this was our first time at the Old School. The house is in a fantastic, quiet location with superb sea views. It is warm and comfortable, the kitchen is very well equipped, comfy beds and large towels all adding to a positive experience. The weather wasn't very kind but provided ever changing sea views and lots of rainbows. Wildlife included otters, eagles, pinemarten, bats and unidentified marine life.
Great location, nice cottage but needs full decoration all the way through . Great service from the staff and very helpful.
Every comfort provided! Thanks for providing a base for a great week. Location excellent for walks, lochside, and wildlife - lots of deer, and pinemartens. Hope to be back soon.
As the cottage was recommended to us we had high expectations and we weren't disappointed. Fabulous location and the cottage had everything needed for a week's stay.
We booked The Old Post Office for a friend's wedding on the Estate and so glad we did! We loved it and would definitely choose the same cottage again. The approach road to the estate was long, single track and extremely bumpy. It is in serious need of repair to potholes, however, was probably my favourite stretch of road in the Highlands, as it had mountains on one side and Loch on the other. The views were stunning! Sheep, vows and red deer frequent the road too. The loch is stunning. The whole area is breathtakingly beautiful. This is no ordinary Highland estate. I don't know how I ...more
We have just spent the most restorative week in Kingairloch - The Steadings was great- lovely to have all of that space. The wildlife is sensational- even the pine martins made an appearance. Hiking up and around the Horseshoe was wonderful and the views make the thigh burn all worthwhile. Hope to return again and again!
If you are looking for a quiet location then Pier Cottage will probably suit you. It is in a very peaceful location with an abundance of wildlife close at hand - deer, Pine Martens, various bird life including eagles. If you do book a stay at Pier Cottage take some peanuts or peanut butter with you to feed the Pine Marten, you should be rewarded with regular nightly visits. Lots of other wildlife can also be seen without having to venture very far from Pier Cottage. Should you want to eat out then the nearest places are some 30 - 40 mins drive from the cottage.
What a magical part of the world, splendid isolation and wonderful views. Thank you Susan for your hospitality
Lovely cottage in a fantastic location. It was exactly what we were hoping for when we booked. Great for wildlife, walking and cycling.
I think the estate and its area are hidden gems. It’s beautifully maintained and the workforce where cheerful and helpful. Lunch at the Whitehouse and Kilcamb lodge recommended, as is the community cafe in Lochaline. Some good forestry walks too. The road across to the lighthouse takes you across the edge of an amazing volcanic crater. I would happily return.
