Half-seventeen cottage, so called because it was formerly croft seventeen, then when the croft split, the cottage and grounds became half of croft seventeen, (obvious isn't it!!!). This traditional holiday cottage is perched high above the sea at Aird on the southernmost tip of the Isle of Skye, and has absolutely stunning views across the ocean to the Isle of Eigg and beyond.
A simple but very cosy croft cottage is your perfect escape from the crowds and bustle, perhaps to spend some time fishing from the rocks below the cottage, or exploring the rockpools and discovering the many hidden coves and beaches all along this beautiful coastline.
Half-seventeen cottage is at the very end of the public road off the beaten track yet still only 3 miles from the nearest pub, (Good food here at the Ardvasar Hotel) shop and Post Office, and 4 miles from the relatively busy, Armadale where there are one or two craft and gift shops also a Petrol station and cafe.
Accommodation:  Traditionally built stone cottage, compact and cosy, is reputed to be the oldest in the area. Electric heating with the addition of a log burner in the lounge, logs and electricity included in the price. Lounge with comfortable suite, a log fire, colour TV / Video and Hi Fi cassette/radio. Kitchen dining, includes gas oven, hob and grill, Fridge/freezer, washing machine, and Microwave. Bathroom with Bath with an electric shower over it, and a shaving point. Bedrooms: three bedrooms, one double, one twin, and one small bedroom with bunks, this bunk room is really only suitable for children. Duvets, pillows and bed linen are included. There is a porch for coats, boots, etc. Ironing facilities, hairdryer, washing line, nearest phone 300 yards. Sorry no pets as sheep sometime wander free in the location. Ample roadside parking. From Armadale you can take the car ferry to Mallaig, enjoy wildlife cruises, boat trips to the isles and fishing trips. Horse riding also available here.
But above all, the cottage offers you a chance to unwind, walk the cliff tops, and maybe watch otters, seals, golden eagles and sea eagles in their own naturally beautiful environment. Not only that, but it is such a lovely journey to the cottage taking you past such sights as Eilean Donain castle and coastal views you may wish to allow extra time to make the journey!!
