We would like to welcome you to Craigrowan Croft where we have a charming 2 bedroom self-catering cottage called An Sean Tigh (The Old House). It has one double bedroom, a twin bedroom, a bathroom with separate bath and shower and a lovely kitchen / dining / living area. It benefits from under floor heating throughout and a cosy multifuel stove to cuddle up in front of. It is only a 5 minute walk to the local shops and a 10 minute walk to 3 lovely restaurants and a cosy pub. The space The kitchen is well equipped with a large fridge freezer, an electric oven and ceramic hob, a dishwasher and all the usual cookware. In the small extension out the back there is a washer / drier washing machine, an iron and ironing board. Out the back there is a small raised back garden with a rotary washing line, small charcoal barbeque and a table and chairs. The cottage has fibre broadband. If you have young children we have a range of accessories available to save you valuable packing space in the car! These include a buggy, a travel cot and booster seats for toddlers to sit on at the dinner table. There is ample free parking around the cottage. Our family love animals, nature and the great outdoors. We took ownership of the croft in 2018 with a view to change our lifestyle; to allow our family to experience nature at its best in the beautiful area of Strontian. We have been working hard since then to return it to a working croft and we started our livestock journey with three very friendly lambs, which we have had the pleasure of bottle-feeding which was very entertaining! Our love for animals grew from there and now we have 25 sheep over 30 hens, 12 ducks, 4 ponies and free range pigs who work the land producing a very tasty meat which we sell from the Croft. Its not just livestock that we have been busy with, we have also been working on our kitchen garden, which we has been very fruitful over the years. The croft is made up of fifteen acres, five of which was recently planted with a mixture of native trees. The rest is made up mostly of rough grazing, some mature trees, a huge variety of wild flowers, mosses and lichens and there are also regular visits from a range of wildlife including red deer and birds of prey. There are spectacular views over the surrounding hills, valley and loch after an invigorating climb up the croft! From the croft you can access a lovely local woodland walk (Phemies Walk), which has a spectacular view out over Loch Sunart. Other things to note We are pet friendly and can accommodate 2 small, well behaved dogs. We kindly ask that the pets are kept off the couch, chairs and beds please. We also ask that pets are not left alone in the cottage. Registration Details HI-41032-F
