Living/dining room: 30" Freeview TV, DVD Player, Open Fire
Kitchen: Electric Oven, Electric Hob, Microwave, Fridge/Freezer, Washing Machine
Bedroom 1: Double (4ft 6in) Bed
Bedroom 2: 2 x Single (3ft) Beds
Shower Room: Cubicle Shower, Heated Towel Rail
Separate Toilet.. Electric central heating, electricity, bed linen, towels, Wi-Fi and fuel for open fire included. . Enclosed front garden with sitting-out area and bench. Private parking for 2 cars. No smoking.. Set in its own grounds, and freshly decorated with comfort in mind, Farr provides peace and seclusion, coupled with incredible sea views. The front door leads into a small veranda with large picture windows and a comfortable sofa - an ideal spot to watch the ever-changing seascapes below. The living room has a warm welcoming open fire, as well as a folding dining table. The kitchen at the rear of the cottage is small but well-equipped, complete with modern units. There are two bedrooms, one with a double bed and the second with twin beds. The garden at the front of the cottage is fully enclosed with a small fence but is not necessarily secure for dogs and is mainly laid to grass with mature shrubs and a Spring flower border. Animals are welcome but any damage to the property done by them will require payment of a compensatory fee. The land at the rear goes straight up onto open hillside. Deer graze nearby and are likely to be inquisitive visitors at the window! The cottage has been owned by the same family for generations, and the current owners have modernised and improved the accommodation in recent years, now providing a warm, cosy, and secluded base in which to relax and to explore the best of this stunning Highland area.
Just a mile away, down the steep single-track road, is Helmsdale village and the renowned North Coast 500 route, which encompasses some of the most amazing and inspiring landscapes to be found anywhere in the British Isles. Helmsdale has a small, thriving harbour, with brightly coloured cottages straddling the shoreline. Here you will also find a selection of local shops and restaurants, as well as a fascinating museum detailing the area’s rich and varied past, including a famous 19th century gold rush. Fishing, cycling, hill walking, kayaking, and surfing are all enjoyed locally. This region is also renowned for its magnificent unspoilt beaches with a pebble beach just 1 mile away, wild rugged coastline, historic castles, and traditional fishing villages. Beach 12 miles. Shop, pub, and restaurant 1 mile.
