    The house is beautifully situated and it is SO clean and comfortable. It has everything you could want; in fact we loved it so much we have booked again already! Arisaig is a stunning place with fabulous views to Rum, Eigg and Skye. Pubs, restaurant, cafe, shop are all a short walk away. Camusdarach beach is breathtaking and golf at Traigh Golf Club was challenging but fantastic.

    So glad you enjoyed your stay & thank you for the positive feedback. Arisaig is a lovely village to make as your base for exploring a beautiful part of the country. We look forward to your next visit, take care, keep safe & thank you. Property Owner

  • "Only thing I would add to the online specification is that it has a dishwasher - This was a real benefit which the description doesn’t mention Excellent owner support."

    Some of the reviews mention the garden and the patio - there was a large table and chairs and adequate space for our dog to access. It is currently like a rewilding garden , which I loved and the owners have said it is part of their ongoing planning to tidy it up a bit. With the stunning surrounding area this really wasn’t an issue for us and please don’t be put off this property because of it. Letting our dog out in the morning and evening before we went to bed was made so easy and it was perfect to sit in the afternoon sun reading my book

    Thank you for the positive feedback. I believe the dishwasher has been added to the list of appliances available. I am also pleased to hear your supportive review of the garden. Thank you & I trust you have fond memories of Arisaig. Property Owner

    Pleased that you like the cottage, it is new to the holiday let market and is still in its first year. The garden is not there yet and is a work in progress. We hope to extend the patio and install additional decking & seating to make full use of the garden in the near future. Take care & keep safe. Property Owner

    Very well fitted and everything you need for a relaxing break. Great coastal walks a short drive away and a Smart TV to watch that film or series you have always wanted to if the weather is inclement. Immediate outside sitting area is a bit limited but a pleasant short stroll to harbour pier for great views out to sea. We enjoyed our stay and have no hesitation in recommending.

    The location and surrounding area is stunning and the owner had left some leaflets and a book of local walks which we really appreciated. It would be nice for the shower area to be upgraded as it smelt a bit musty, but apart from this the cottage was kept to a high standard and we'll definitely have it on our list to return.

    The surrounding area is beautiful & I am delighted that you found the cottage welcoming after your walks. It is intended to update the bathroom at the earliest opportunity & hopefully this will be completed when you return. Thank you. Property Owner

    We spent a very pleasant week in 6 Lowlands and loved the fact that we could venture out on a variety of beautiful scenic walks direct from the doorstep, with no need to get in the car. The cottage is very well equipped and our only suggestion would be that it could perhaps benefit from some softer lighting in the form of table lamps or wall lights in the living area for reading and relaxing during the winter months.

    Thank you for your feedback & the constructive suggestion. I will look into some other forms of lighting, as you suggest table lamps & free standing reading lights etc. I am pleased that you enjoyed your stay. Take care & keep safe. Kind regards. Property Owner
