The Area Surrounding The Property / Accommodation

Knoydart is often referred to as “Britain’s last wilderness” and it’s not hard to see why. Free from light pollution, mobile masts and roads, its remote and rugged landscape is one of the most unspoilt natural landscapes you could ever hope to visit. The best way to explore and experience the countryside at its best is on foot - stroll along the beach, go on guided or historical walks, try deer stalking, go hill walking or climb a few munros. And if you want to get out on the water you can go fishing, kayaking, fast rub adventures to remore romantic beaches head to Eilean Donan Castle, Skye, Arisaig or the tiny Inner Hebridean isles. This is the perfect place for dolphin, otter, seal and whale spotting, hire e-bikes, go hiking guided or unguideds, romanic beach strolls, or you could take a trip on the Jacobite steam train that featured in the Harry Potter films. Knoydart has a micro brewery and is home to mainland Britains remotest pub, Guinness book of Records with traditional folk music regularly featuring regularly.

Getting There & Local Amenities

Getting There:
There are no roads into Knoydart so you will have to drive from Fort William to Mallaig on the A830. See the website for full driving directions. The ferry from Mallaig then takes 25 or 45 minutes. If you want to get the train you’ll need to go via Glasgow to Fort William and Mallaig and the sleeper train from London Euston is a very civilised way to travel. We will arrange a collection and drop off service from the ferry so you can relax about transporting your luggage.
