Cabins in Lochinver

Cozy, clean, lovely hosts, private garden, parking

The setting is stunning. During the day you stare out at the Loch watching boats and the occasional hint of sea life popping up. At night the lights of Lochinver terrible in the distance while deer and other wildlife wander around the trees (bring a torch if you want to see them). The trees either side keep you fairly private from the other properties around about and to feel like you're in your own little private cabin away from the world. On the porch you have a water jet hot tub facing the view, a log burning chiminea (with 2 easy light fire logs provided) and a Ninja Woodfire for cooking which works as a grill, air fryer, dehydrater and smoker. The porch is fully covered by the perspex roof means you can still look to the stars and get the sun during the day. We sat outside watching the fire burn, listening to sounds of nature around us for hours. So peaceful, and excellent at this time of year with the longer nights. With the fire burning and the hot tub running the porch remains pretty warm, but you'll probably want to grab some firewood as the log burns for a maximum of 1.5 hours and isn't hugely warm on its own. You can purchase more from the owners or the shops in Lochinver sell kindling and larger logs. I can't stress how lovely the setting is considering how close you are to other peripheries when you take a walk around. You'd honestly never know when you're in there. Inside the pod there's everything you need. An electric fire/heater, comfy big double bed, TV with netflix etc, wet room shower and bathroom, air fryer, kettle and various cutlery and cookware. Power outlets have usb ports for easy charging of your devices and there's a small table and stools if you want to eat inside. I won't lie, we spent minimal time inside. We slept, showered and got changed, but the setting just encourages you to sit outside.

We enjoyed every little detail of our stay! The see cabin is very cozy and comfortable and has everything you need. Jo and John are amazing, kind and helpful hosts. There are so many nice and cute animals to pet and cuddle with at the vast property which spreads all the way to the sea shore. The views are beautiful and breathtaking. Close to a big impressive waterfall. Very convenient location for hiking or if you decide to go in direction of Handa island.

The pod was absolutely lovely. Welcome basket with food. Tea, coffee, milk, eggs freely available.

This place is amazing! The location and the view are astonishing, it was a dream. Jordan the host welcomed us and was available for any needs we had. The pod is very well equipped, nothing was missing and every detail was taken care of. Really great!

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, beautiful surroundings and clean, well kitted out cabin. Will definitely be back

Anne was super friendly, the pod was comfortable, the location is stunning! Good kitchen appliances and kitchen stocked with milk, orange juice, cooking oil and salt and pepper!

The cabin has everything you could think of to make your stay comfortable. It’s so homely you don’t want to leave to go exploring! The bed is super comfortable and all the little touches just make it. We will be bad soon for another stay. We travelled up in stormy weather and the hot tub was just what was needed after a long drive!!

Another perfect 10 for this place. Hopefully it will be free next time I am planning to visit. ;-) I booked the house because of its view, the fireplace, the hot tub (with a view) and because the price was within my range. But what I got was much more than that. I instantly felt at home, even though I traveled alone, I never felt unsafe. Easy check-in, hot tub was already on a nice temperature. and the VIEW: my phone is full of pictures with changing light and every 5 minutes my favorite motive - Suilvan - seemed to look different. There were 3 bedrooms, I took the one facing to Suilven and in the morning, with open curtains, you feel like he watches you over. Kitchen is perfectly equipped to cook everything you like. Welcome pack with sweets and marmalade as well as breakfast tea, which I enjoyed next to the fireplace snuggled in the chair and enjoying the view, sometimes even deer coming up to the house. Everyday I struggled getting out of the house, because it was so cosy but the weather was that good that I needed to get out and explored the surroundings. Because of off-season I did not meet one hiker on the way to Achmelvich, but this was high season for me. I strongly recommend getting there in autumn, because of the colours. When you travel from Edinburgh airport directly to Waterloo House you would need 5 hours (according to google maps), but with all the nice views it took me 8 to get to Lochinver, and 7 to go back (almost same route). But it is all worth it! Surely coming back.

Beautiful accommodation in an outstanding location
