    very cozy pod, felt like our own little nest - the layout is really nice and the pod itself lovely decorated. The view is great (if you're lucky, you might spot some seals) and in just a couple of minutes you can reach achmelvich beach.

    The location was absolutely great with stunning views no matter what the weather did. With a car it was close enough to all the fabulous beaches for fantastic sea swimming and also to Lochinver for shops and restaurants.

The wooden studio cabin(Selkie Cabin) sitting in its own grounds is open plan with a king size bed, kitchenette area, wet room and sitting room area . It also has a BBQ and elevated decking area . The Cabin does not have WiFi but you can get 4G on most phones . They both have a garden with Decking area and off road parking . Both properties are situated over looking the most stunning views of mountains and a beautiful sea loch looking out to sea . A five minute walk to the award winning Achmelvich beach and a 4 mile drive to the Village of Lochinver where a selection of restaurants and 2 local stores and local shops for you to spend some time browsing around them. It is truly a magical place.
Both of us ( Willie and Dorothy) are on hand to help out with any information you may require , we both love living in Assynt and enjoy all it has to offer . Willie being local and born in the house we live in which was built by his Grandfather in 1901 has an amazing knowledge of the area . Our main aim is to help guests to enjoy their holiday and have made both the apartment and the cabin as comfortable as we can .
