Stylishly renovated Croft house with uninterrupted views of fields, hills & sea

Nestled between the hills and the sea close to Loch Linnhe in the quiet crofting community of Clovullin, Croft 11 Clovullin could not be in a more beautiful position. It is the rare mix of timeless and modern that makes this stylishly renovated historic house on a working croft so appealing. Now is your chance to come and stay.

Ardgour is the gateway to the Ardnamurchan peninsular, an area of outstanding natural beauty on the Scottish Highlands' beguiling west coast. It is most easily reached by the charming drive-on Corran Ferry or you can make the entire journey by road.

The house itself has been lovingly renovated to create a warm and inviting contemporary space with stylish architectural details and furnishings. It is bijou, but beautiful . The views from every window are spectacular artworks in themselves. The wide open skies often turn vermillion at sunrise and sunset.

The tranquility, the dark skies, and the proximity to nature make this the perfect place to relax and enjoy all the Highlands has to offer.

I want to go back!
Our stay at Croft 11 with Catherine as host was the best part about our trip to Scotland. We stayed in 3 different places and we wish we could have spent the entire time at this beautifully renovated, warm and cozy, charmingly and thoughtfully appointed croft on the West Coast of this amazing country. Catherine literally thought of everything you could possibly need at a holiday home. From a spare charger to a lovely book selection, large fluffy towels with the best towel warmer ever, comfortable beds, warm throw blankets, comfortable places to sit in front of the fire and read at night (or all day)....it was just perfect. I also can't say enough good things about Catherine. She was the perfect host - checked in on us but also left us to ourselves, offered to dry our clothes (there is a great washer but the dryer is on order) and even folded them!! We were traveling with our toddler so he goes through clothes quickly and Catherine was the nicest and most understanding person. I feel like we made a friend! Stay here. Enjoy the ferry, the small brewery, the wonderful food at the Inn, and just being at peace in a beautiful space.

Stay here!
We absolutely loved our stay here. Catherine’s house is beautiful, cozy, and spotless. The views from the property are amazing in every direction. The kitchen has everything you could need and we really enjoyed cooking while enjoying the view. The beds are very comfortable and temperature control was easy. The WiFi was also very good. We felt a little unsure about the location when we booked but we ended up loving it. The Corran ferry is extremely easy; the longest we ever waited was probably 10-15 minutes and it runs until around 9:30pm, so we were able to easily explore the Glencoe/Fort William area. There is also plenty to do on the Ardgour side including wonderful walks right from the house. Catherine herself is also fantastic - very friendly and helpful. It was hard to leave this place - we want to come back!

Splendid Stay at Catherine’s!
WOW!!!! Catherine’s place was 10/10. The property was beautiful, the house was lovely, and so was Catherine. We’ve been travelling the UK for over a month now and this was our favourite stay. The house was tastefully decorated, cozy and clean - overall just stunning. It also had all the amenities we could have possibly needed. Catherine was extremely kind and informative. The area offered plenty of activities and was a must-see in Scotland. I would absolutely stay at her place again, and would look forwards to it. Thanks again Catherine!

Fantastic view, beautiful croft
We had a fantastic stay at Croft 11. The view from the kitchen and bedrooms is beautiful. The croft is wonderfully renovated and had everything we needed. Catherine is a great host who answered all our questions and provided good suggestions for activities in the area. We have done a lot of vacation rentals and this is easily one of the best we have every stayed at. We would definitely stay again!

Stay of a Lifetime
My husband and I had a fantastic stay at Catherine's property in Ardgour and we hope to come back again. The crofter's cottage was immaculate and equipped with everything you need to be comfortable. Upon arrival, Catherine provided us with a bottle of wine, eggs, cheese, bread and jams. She was a wonderful host - friendly and inviting. The property itself has been recently renovated and it feels like home as soon as you walk in. Catherine has a beautiful garden with views of the sea. It's incredibly private and peaceful. Ardgour was a great jumping off location for us - hiking in Glencoe, Ben Nevis, local trails walking distance to the cottage, Fort William, local brewery, and coastal towns. Try the fish pie at the inn down the street. Be aware the easiest way to reach the cottage is by ferry and it costs 10 pounds one way. 10/10 you must stay here.

Dreamy Croft House
The Croft house was an absolute dream. We had everything (and more) that we needed. Catherine is a wonderful host and was available for any questions and made sure we were not lacking for anything. The house is a beautiful setup and the surroundings are magnificent. We enjoyed the highland views, animals rotating on the properties and the beautiful mature garden, all while having comforts like plush towels, a blender, and WiFi (amongst other things). We lit fires on chilly nights and it was wonderful. I would return in a heartbeat!

Great house - beautiful location
We (three adults and a baby) had the best time staying in Catherine’s croft house in Clovullin. The house itself is beautiful, well decorated, well furnished, and with relatively new appliances. On top of that, the location in Clovullin is special, with views of the neighboring farms, loch, and mountains. Catherine was a great and responsive host too. Not much more we could ask for.

Wonderful stay!
We had a wonderful stay at Croft 11! The house is very spacious, cozy, comfortable, and beautifully decorated, with top notch facilities. The views of the loch and mountains from the kitchen, with its large, wide windows, and from the master bedroom are spectacular. The extra large beds are very comfortable. The kitchen is very well equipped with plenty of tableware and everything you’d need to do serious cooking. Catherine was extraordinarily kind and helpful. Before our stay, she sent us a helpful information packet. As we were driving up, she kept watch on the ferry to make sure we’d be able to cross. We were greeted with a generous welcome basket (wine, bread, eggs, butter, marmalade, shortbread) and vases of fresh flowers from the croft garden. After we arrived, Catherine came over to show us how everything worked and gave us lots of great tips for things to do and places to eat. She stayed in touch during the week, checking to see if everything was ok, and she responded quickly to all our questions. She even posted some electronics we’d left behind!

Spectacular!
If you have an opportunity to stay at this property you will be fortunate indeed. Everything about it is even better than described, the home is at the same time stunning and welcoming. Perfectly appointed for comfort it has everything required to stay in and cook while enjoying the amazing landscapes out every window. This location is perfect if you are traveling with anyone who might want to relax and stay in while others are out enjoying the hiking or scenery. They can enjoy the beauty of the area, while staying cozy and warm by the window! Our host Catherine went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. We were greeted by a lovely welcome basket. It meant everything after a long day of travel. She gave us very detailed directions to the house and we arrived without a problem. Catherine offered suggestions on some beautiful places to visit and taking her advice enhanced our experience of the area. When we visit again it will be for longer and we would never consider staying anywhere else in the Highlands. If you are looking at this listing- hurry and book it. It will be an amazing experience!

Highlight of our trip
This cottage and the surrounding farm, loch, and community were by far the highlight and favorite of our trip. When you take decorating inspirations home with you you know you are in a great place. We traveled from California through Edinburgh, Fort Williams, Skye, and St Andrews and enjoyed the uniqueness of every spot, but this home is the one I plan to return to on our next trip!

A secret gem!
Absolutely stunning! This cottage has been renovated to perfection. Catherine's passion has shown through in every detail both modern and historic. This cottage feels like home tucked quietly away from it all. Catherine has selected high end modern appliances and accessories to make one feel as if they are staying at a 5 star hotel. The views are breath taking from every window inside. Catherine was extremely helpful in helping navigate the location, food and hikes. Trust her opinion, she never steered us wrong. Despite the local ferry being out of commission, we were enamored with the local hikes, restaurants and scenery making the extra driving time seem insignificant. We loved every minute there and we look forward to seeking the opportunity to return to this hidden gem!

A home away from home
A beautifully refurbished croft in a tranquil environment with fantastic views across the loch. We spent a very enjoyable week exploring the beautiful scenery that characterises this part of the world. It was lovely to come back to a home away from home each evening. The property is very well equipped, tastefully decorated and extremely comfortable. The owner, Catherine, was extremely welcoming upon arrival and very helpful throughout our stay. We'll take away very happy memories of our stay.

This was by far the most beautiful cottage we’ve ever stayed in, so tastefully decorated with such thought and care and with such quality materials. The view from the kitchen is to die for and the landscape in the surrounding area stunning. The pictures just don’t do the place justice! Catherine was an amazing host, provided us with so much useful info before we even arrived. Would’ve loved to rent the place for an entire year! We look forward to coming back again one day.

This charmingly little cottage has been painstakingly renovated and modernised and made a welcoming base for four days of exploration.

Fabulous Cottage in the Highlands
We loved our stay at this picturesque cottage. Catherine made us feel very welcome and the house was clean and beautifully decorated. The beds are very comfortable, the shower was tall enough for my husband who is 6'3, had good pressure and plenty of hot water. The kitchen is adorable and has everything to cook your own meals. The views were breathtaking. She even has a washing machine and a rack to dry on which was helpful. The location feels remote and quiet but is only a quaint 5 min ferry ride and a short drive to both Glencoe and Ft. William with lots of hiking, restaurants, pubs, and grocery stores. We absolutely loved coming back at night and sitting around the fire reading on one of the comfy couches and playing scrabble. We would definitely come back and stay here on our next visit to the Highlands! Thank you Catherine! Kate and Tom Dimitre

This property was the most beautiful on our trip. It is set in a gorgeous little village that has wonderful views on both sides of the house. On one side you look out over the loch and up to mountains. There is peace and tranquility surrounding you.
