Lag Cottage

Tucked away near Kyle of Lochalsh in Northern Scotland, Lag Cottage is a cosy bolthole for two, ideal if you're after peace and quiet rather than bustle. It's a good base for exploring the dramatic landscapes of this part of the Highlands, with the train line at Stromeferry just 5 miles off should you fancy arriving car-free or heading further afield.

History and local curiosities are within reach too, with the Kyle Station Museum 7.6 miles away and the Gavin Maxwell Museum a little further at 8.6 miles, both offering a glimpse into the stories of this coastal corner of Scotland. A restful choice for couples wanting to unwind amid the scenery.
