Bed and Breakfast on a working croft
Craigrowan is a mid-Victorian house,modernised and upgraded but still
retaining many of its original features.It is set in 15acres of croftland
on the edge of the peaceful village of Strontian at the head of beautiful
Loch Sunart. We have just two guest bedrooms, one double with en-suite shower room, and a twin with private bathroom. Both are attractive, warm and comfortable, with tea/coffee making facilities, and a TV. A cot and high chair are available. |
Craigrowan is ideally situated for exploring the peninsulas
of Ardnamurchan and Morvern, and is within easy reach of the ferry from
Lochaline to the Isle of Mull. Ardnamurchan is famous for its variety of wildlife, and the patient visitor may be rewarded by the sight of otters, deer, Golden and Sea Eagles and many other native species. Strontian is also an easy drive from Fort William, and of course Ben Nevis, GlenCoe, and the West Highland rail-line(of Harry Potter fame! |

Our croft is a mixture of rough hill and deciduous
woods, and borders a beautiful forest walk.We are part of the Rural
Stewardship Scheme, and graze Highland cattle to encourage the growth
of indigenous wild flowers, which in turn support
large numbers of birds, butterflies etc. Our hens are truly free-range,
laying delicious eggs for your breakfast, and our delightful pig Bertha
will appreciate your attention (preferably accompanied by food).You
are welcome to wander over the croft (bring your wellies!) Stalking
can be arranged in season. There are many local walks, as easy or strenuous as you wish, and we offer drying facilities just in case it rains.There is plenty of off-road parking and bikes/motor bikes can be kept under cover. |

Although we are happy to be members
of the Ardnamurchan Tourist Association we do not subscribe to any
quality assurance scheme.We know we offer high quality accommodation
and a great breakfast in a slightly unusual setting, but we would definitely
lose points on our mis-matched furniture and total lack of trouser
press! However, none of our guests, so far,has been too worried at
less
than immaculate jeans, but we do have a very good iron if necessary!
