Duirinish Lodge Evening sun

Duirinish Lodge is a rare find; an exceptionally comfortable self catering weekly holiday rental - not only with amazing views out to sea and the surrounding hills, but also with a sense of peaceful seclusion amongst 18 acres of woodland gardens. Duirinish is well situated for excursions to some of the most spectacular places is Scotland: Skye, the Applecross peninsula and the National Parks and nature reserves of Torridon and Ben Eighe.

There are walks through the woodland gardens surrounding the Lodge, and a wooden Summer House hidden amongst pine trees on a heathery hill where you can sit and watch the sun set over the Atlantic.

There is also a games room with a pool table, terraces for sitting out, and a magnificent semi-circular sitting room with amazing views.

The Lodge is about a mile from the sea and the conservation villages of Duirinish and Drumbuie, 2 miles from Plockton and about 7 miles from the Kyle of Lochalsh and bridge to Skye.

Duirinish Lodge sleeps 6, and is available for weekly self-catering rental all year round. In addition there is a Guest Wing (sleeping 4) also avalable for rental, in which case the whole house can accommodate up to 10.
