Formerly the local fire station, this detached property has been completely transformed into a delightful holiday cottage, ideal for couples. The vaulted ceiling makes a spacious and bright lounge area, which has oak flooring throughout and a cosy wood burner. Patio doors lead to decking at the front, where you can enjoy the sunset over the MacLeod Tables.
The bedroom is very spacious with Velux windows, which allows you to enjoy the morning light or the dark skies. Old Fire Station is conveniently located in a central village location, where there is a local pub, many eateries, convenience store and a petrol station. Permits for loch and sea fishing can even be purchased from the village shop.
Historic Dunvegan Castle and Gardens, Giant MacAskill Museum, Coral Beaches and Neist Point are all within easy reach. The island has much to offer for the outdoor enthusiast including hill walking, fishing, boat trips, kayaking, pony trekking and the opportunity to discover many art galleries.
