The house is beautifully situated and it is SO clean and comfortable. It has everything you could want; in fact we loved it so much we have booked again already! Arisaig is a stunning place with fabulous views to Rum, Eigg and Skye. Pubs, restaurant, cafe, shop are all a short walk away. Camusdarach beach is breathtaking and golf at Traigh Golf Club was challenging but fantastic.
