The house was entirely renovated in 2009 and was sympathetically modernised to sleep four in comfort. To celebrate the renovation, the cottage was renamed Glayva. This is an English language interpretation of the Gaelic words "gle mhath" which translate as "very nice" or "very good". The cottage has two good-sized bedrooms, one double with a large en-suite bathroom, and a spacious twin room which has an adjacent shower room. There is a large and well appointed kitchen/diner with modern SMEG appliances and a dining table which has been designed so you can look out over the loch while you dine (we've seen dolphins and otters from the window - so keep your eyes peeled!) There's also a relaxing lounge with a woodburning stove, books, games, iPod dock, CDs, DVD player, Nintendo Wii and satellite TV. As part of the renovation process the cottage was fully insulated with modern materials and new central heating and hot water systems were installed - this means that Glayva is one of the warmest and cosiest cottages around! Quality linen and towels are included in the cost, as are all heating and utility bills. The bedrooms, lounge, shower room and kitchen/diner all face south over the loch so the rooms are flooded with light all day. There is also a small south facing patio at the front of the house, perfect for sundowners! We've thought about some of the things that are important to us in a holiday home and tried to include a few touches of luxury at Glayva. We've installed a romantic double-ended bath in the en-suite with an amazing waterfall tap. There are fabulous views from the bedrooms and in the shower room there's a heated floor to warm your feet. You will be able to cook and eat in a large bright kitchen/diner whilst enjoying sea views and in the lounge there's a selection of books, CDs, satellite TV, a music system and a wood burning stove for those cosy nights in. Please browse the rest of the website to find out more about Glayva cottage, the Lochcarron area or to check availability. We hope you enjoy Glayva cottage as much as we do. |
