Doune Bay Lodge, a delightful, five-bedroom dwelling is nestled in the remote beauty of Knoydart near Mallaig, Highland.
Capturing the serenity and splendour of its isolated location, this pet-friendly property offers visitors an opportunity to relax and unwind surrounded by stunning views, and the chance to explore the wonderful wilderness of the Highlands.
Park up in Mallaig before travelling by passenger ferry to your location, venture over the moorland and enjoy the scenic walk to get to your doorstep, or alternatively, travel by charter boat where you can soak in views of the breath-taking coastline and even have the chance to spot porpoises and dolphins!
Inside, be instantly welcomed by the splendidly-designed, open-plan living space, where the natural light illuminates the kitchen, dining area and sitting area.
Allow the designated chef to rustle up a delicious meal before gathering around the dining table, or alternatively, let the fresh air in through the French doors and step out onto the enclosed front decking, perfect for alfresco feasts in the summer months. Make the most of the outdoors and indulge a glass of fizz as you admire far-reaching views of Cuilins on Skye, Sleat peninsula on Skye, and the islands of Rhum and Eigg, or light the fire pit on chillier evenings, ready to enjoy a spot of stargazing.
When the evening eventually draws to a close, escape to one of five beautiful bedrooms, spread out across the ground and first floors, each boasting their very own en-suites so you can unwind at your own pace or get ready in style each morning.
When you’re ready to venture beyond your idyllic escape at Doune Bay Lodge, don’t forget to take a trip to Inverie, the capital of Knoydart, where you can enjoy the culture and hospitality of a unique village, home to a community owned pub, a village shop, Post Office, gift shop, and tearoom.
Be sure to also keep an eye out for the abundance of wildlife that occupies your surroundings, including Minky whales, orca, basking sharks, seals, white tailed and golden eagles, buzzards, cormorants, shags, oyster catchers, red deer, otters, pine martens and wild goats!
