Torridon 8.7 miles. Emerging from the lush woodlands of Diabaig, near Torridon, and raised above the ground, Chapel House is a magnificent architect-designed cottage providing a superb location for a couples getaway. Situated in five acres of private, clifftop woodland, park in the nearby car park and discover this secretive getaway. Ascending the rear steps and entering a fantastic sitting room, you can find quality wooden flooring, inviting furniture, and a woodburning stove to warm away the Highland chill. From here, cook a romantic meal for two in the well-equipped kitchen before serving on the dining table with a view to the woodlands, or on the balcony, one which is accessible by French windows on the side and front of the property (not accessible); allowing in plenty of natural light. The space is fantastic for reclining in the evenings. When night falls, make yourself at home in the king-size bedroom with large sliding windows creating a pocket of views as you unwind for the evening. Remote and beautiful, Torridon and the surrounding area are teeming with wildlife, including deer which can be enjoyed at Beinn Eighe National Nature Reserve and View Point. Mountainous trails serve up stunning views of the dramatic landscape and elegant bodies of water, a great location for those who love to take a stroll through nature. Torridon itself has a local shop and Deer Museum, however if you wish to swap the countryside for sandy beaches, then Applecross Beach and Coral Beach will make the perfect place for a romantic stroll in the salty air. You can also find the crofting community of Diabeg near one of the most beautiful west Highland passes, Bealach na Gaoithe, home to some of the most breath-taking views of Ben Alligin, Liathach and Upper Loch Torridon, Applecross and Skye. After exploring the Torridon Mountains and many clifftop and lochside walks in the area, stop for a meal in the fantastic Gillie Bridhde restaurant, right on the picture-perfect Diabeg Bay. Lose yourself in the breath-taking wilderness of the Highlands with a stay at Chapel House.
Resting among the rustic landscapes of the northwest Highlands of Scotland is the quaint village of Torridon, home to the dramatic Torridon Hills and Loch Torridon lying on the west coastline. The area itself has gained status as a National Trust for Scotland for its historic mountains, with the Torridonian sandstone dating back 750 million years and the Lewisian Gneiss rock dating even further back a whopping 2,600 million years old. The village centre comprises a local shop, The Torridon Inn hotel and pub, a youth hostel, a community centre and a deer museum. The west coast boasts incredible secluded beaches scattered around the outskirts, including Apple Cross Beach, Coral Beach and Gruinard Beach to name a few. Other popular attractions surrounding the area include Beinn Eighe National Nature Reserve and View Point, the gateway to the Skye Bridge and the Inner Hebridean Islands. Torridon is a thrilling holiday destination filled with adventure, history and culture to explore.
