Beautiful cottage in a perfect location! Lovely views from every window & a great spot to watch the weather rolling in, see wildlife, stargaze, take long walks, or stay cosy indoors. Local amenities like shops & cafes make great pit-stops for days out. Riverview has everything you need to keep warm & comfy in wintertime. Thanks for a lovely stay!

Fabulous cosy cottage with secure garden for the dog (sheep fence and extra wire rail). Cottage was so well equipped with everything I could possibly need and generous log supply, cake and wine. Very friendly host on hand if needed. Loved watching the birds in the garden and deer passing across the moor most evenings. The local area is rich in wildlife with stunning beaches and lots of history. Nov was ideal for me and my reactive collie as it was generally quiet. Yes it rained a lot, nothing waterproofs and a love of the outdoors wouldn’t overcome. Highly recommend this cottage and a holiday in Ardnamurchan

A beautifully clean, warm, comfy cottage with everything we needed. Eilidh was a lovely host, there if we needed her. The location is so peaceful, the deer walking past the garden amazing, and the birdlife outside the window really good. The location is excellent for Ardnamurchan and Morvern, the roads to Ardnamurchan lighthouse and Lochaline truly spectacular. Our first visit to the area, we will be back. Thank you for a lovely stay.
