 Rona is uninhabited except for Bill Cowie our caretaker/ manager who lives in Rona Lodge overlooking Big Harbour (Acarseid Mhor) - one of the most beautiful anchorages in Scotland visited by yachts and a few hardy canoeists. This is where the local boat M V Stardust, skipper Dan Corrigal will normally land you and your party after a passage of 1 hour north north east between Skye and Raasay and then on towards Rona with views all around.
The three cottages are 1.5 miles over a hill track from the pier at Big Harbour - a spectacular walk with the Cuillins at your back, Torridon to the North and Lewis and Harris far away across the Minch. Your luggage and supplies travel by 4-wheel drive bike and trailer. A chance to be at peace on an island of calm - a safe haven to lower your stress levels and an unforgettable holiday experience. - No cars, no pavements, no fast food outlets.
A unique opportunity to enjoy a remote, secluded holiday without roughing it!

Situated in a secluded location 'Escape' - the recently renovated former Rona Manse overlooks the tidal bay of Dry Harbour (Acarseid Thioram) from an elevated site with a fantastic west facing views across the Sound of Raasay towards Skye and the pinnacle, 'The Old Man of Storr'. 50 metres from the enclosed garden a pond, which attracts otters, has been created on the grassy slope where the Highland cattle come to feed and the Rona red deer feed in the early morning and late evening.
