Glenelg - Detached House With Stunning Views Over the Sea to the Isle of Skye
Seaview is a large holiday house situated in an idyllic situation with the most fabulous views towards the Isle of Skye. It is an ideal base to chill out and enjoy the tranquillity or as a base to tour the west coast of Scotland. With four double bedrooms and sleeping up to 8 guests, 2 families have in the past shared their holiday at Seaview. Glenelg has a population of about 300, and is set in a very tranquil and peaceful part of Scotland with breathtaking scenery. Situated on the mainland coast, opposite the Isle of Skye,. The local ferry over the sea to Skye is 3 miles away, or the bridge (now free of tolls) is 17 miles away at Kyle of Lochalsh. There is an abundance of walks of various levels nearby: from a 5-minute walk to the local shop or inn; along the coast or glen; and hill walking from gentle walks to the Five Sisters of Kintail. There are many other activities in the surrounding area including excellent fishing. Of historic interest are the Pictish Brochs, General Wade's barracks, and Sandaig (where Gavin Maxwell lived with his otters) and from which the film Ring of Bright Water was made. Glenelg is a unique place where people return to year after year, because of the tranquility, friendliness of the locals and the renowned Glenelg Inn. The nearby beaches are stunning and children will enjoy a traditional seaside holiday - and perhaps view Sea Eagles, dolphins or whales from the sandy beaches. This is one of Scotland's special hidden places.
First time visiting house & area and we weren't disappointed, the house size and facilities were excellent. We spotted local widllife including dolphins, seal &
Great location on the edge of the loch and fantastic views across to Skye. The property was very clean, would have given five stars for info but the site pdf said towels not included, only to find towels were provided, so we used the ones we had brought with us. Kitchen well equipped and plenty of crockery and baking equipment. Enclosed garden was good for the dog. Visited local shop a quite a few times and ate twice in the pub, both only a five minute walk away. We had a very relaxing stay, lovely local walks, the historic brochs, and Gavin Maxwells Croft and strolls along the beach. All in all a lovely New Year family stay
The house is in a great position in a classic highland village. The downstairs layout is very good and feels like a much bigger space than we expected.
Beautiful house in a quiet friendly village with outstanding views. Large rooms with comfy beds, good bathrooms, a very well equipped kitchen. Terrible sofas in living room or it would have been the best accomodation I have stayed in ever. Fantastic Inn with amazing food just 5 mins walk. The fishing outside the cottage and from the pier was good. Met Willie and his pet deer in Corran, saw otters, seals, pine martins, and there were porpoises in the bay. Had good weather and were spoilt for lovely places to picnic. Special thanks to the lovely cleaner. Amazing all round holiday. Aileen
Seaview provided the ideal home away from home whilst visiting Glenelg . The instructions from the property manager to access Seaview were concise and accurate. Seaview has a well equipped kitchen, spacious, ideal location for sea kayaking, enjoying the beach, cycling and hill-walking. The bedrooms and bathrooms were clean and comfortable. The living room was spacious and comfortable for relaxing and admiring the views over the Sound of Sleat.
Lovely house to accommodate a large group, set within stunning surroundings. We never want to leave at the end of our holiday. This is our third year here as a big family and it feels like Glenelg just gets better and better. Everything was fantastic the only thing I would say though is the sofas need updating, my elderly father struggled getting on and off them.
This is a great location with dramatic views over The Sound of Sleat - a scenic delight out of the front windows in all weathers and all light conditions. We had lots of room and slept in comfortable beds. The house was warm and cosy with an excellent TV. Catering was well provided for in a large and well-equipped kitchen.
We fished from the front doorstep (almost) and successfully foraged for fungi locally.
When we felt like it, the village pub served great meals and live music. Friendly neighbours and local folk made the whole week a one to remember. Thank you David.
Thirty years ago my wife and I honeymooned in the Highlands. This year we decided to take our now adult children and their partners away for a week to celebrate. One had to drop out due to work commitments so we had seven adults staying at Sea View and it was excellent. Well appointed and comfortable, with magnificent views across to Skye. Being the Highlands we were out from dawn to dusk enjoying the magnificent country but in the evenings Sea View was the perfect base. Room to eat together, good cooking facilities, space to read or play card games etc . We thoroughly enjoyed our week and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Sea View to anybody considering a break in this beautiful country.
Wer die Highlands liebt und die Insel Sky, der hat hier alles richtig gemacht. Nicht nur, das hier die Ă€ltestes Skyferry fĂ€hrt, und ein romatisches Pup zum plaudern einlĂ€dt ist das ferienhaus geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Die vier schlafzimmer bieten genĂŒgend platz und ein separater wohnraum zum entspannen, gigantisch. Die kĂŒche ist groĂzĂŒgig, wunderbar zum selber kochen. Wir haben uns hier sehr wohl gefĂŒllt. Besten dank an David.
Meget ideel til familieferie med bla. rummeligt kÞkken. Fantastisk udsigt fra huset. God base for lÊngere ture, incl. vandreture; men ogsÄ meget spÊndende at opleve i nÊromrÄdet. SÄ fredelig og smuk beliggenhed!
Thank you we loved our week at seaview. Wildlife was out in force with pine martins, birds, deer and otters all making an appearance. The local mountain rescue were also amazing, thankfully they didnât need to go further than our cottage as our missing party returned rather cold and wet but safe.
My main concern is that the property is listed as being suitable for children of all ages and that there is a cot and high chair, this is true but to be honest they were not in a very good state. The high chair was dirty and the harness was not the correct one and was not fit for purpose. The cot is a travel cot that was again dirty/stained and had no bottom sheet luckily we took blankets with us for our little one, the stair gate is not much use either we had to adapt it to fit but not ideal. If you are taking children younger than 4yrs be prepared to improvise.
Fantastic place to relax and unwind with family. Highly recommend visit to walled garden in applecross if you like driving in the highlands and loch Caron Spar a must if your upthat way.
The house was nice and clean (apart from the oven) and very well equipped. The beds were very comfortable and the bed linen lovely, fresh and clean. The lounge furniture however wasn't so good with uncomfortable settees. It didn't matter to us as there was only three in our party and the weather was superb so we spent a lot of time outside but for a larger party it could be inadequate. All in all we had a lovely stay at Sea View
Fantastic scenery, a peaceful and tranquil place. Lovely little village, with a cute little cafe and fantastic food at the local pub. Lots of places to walk, ideal for cycling and not too far from Skye bridge. Owner extremely helpful replacing the kettle when it broke down. House has plenty of space for large families or groups, nice big kitchen for cooking together.
GroĂes Haus in einsamer Lage mit traumhaftem Blick aufs Meer
Von der HauptstraĂe fĂŒhrt eine 25 minĂŒtige Fahrt, ĂŒber eine wenig befahrene StraĂe, die in groĂen Teilen Single Track Road ist, nach Glenelg. Das groĂe Haus (Seaview) liegt direkt am Wasser mit einem traumhaft schönen Ausblick aufs Meer. Der Strand ist steinig. Die Möbel sind deutlich in die Jahre gekommen was den Eindruck des Hauses und das wohlfĂŒhl GefĂŒhl deutlich trĂŒbt. Im Wohnzimmer kann man bequem mit 8 Personen am Tisch sitzen. Die KĂŒche ist gut ausgestattet. Eine SpĂŒl und Waschmaschine sind vorhanden und gut nutzbar. Die beiden Badezimmer sind relativ neu. Wir hĂ€tten uns einen weiteren Satz HandtĂŒcher gewĂŒnscht, sodass wir nicht 10 Tage lang das gleiche Duschtuch hĂ€tten nutzen mĂŒssen. Im Ort gibt es einen Mini Shop und einen Pub.
We had a lovely time with the whole family. (Three generations). the house is spacious well equipped with everything we needed. It is clean, cozy and warm, when the weather was less friendly. Although quite remote, it is nice that there is a shop to get essential!
The locations is wonderful, so close to the water. Beautiful views and a good place to explore the area from. We enjoyed our crossings on the turn table ferry, and the beautiful drive on the other side on Skye. But also the immediate surroundings of Glenelg, the Brochs and the coast line on the way to Arnisdale and Corran are full of treasures. I would like to come again and for further explorations and more walking!
