4 bedroom accommodation in Rispond, near Durness

Set in an area with abundant wildlife, this characterful property lies on a 200-acre estate with many outdoor activities available nearby.. The Estate properties are set in a quiet and remote location in an Area of Outstanding Beauty off the famous North Coast 500 road. Down the estate road and through the Estate gate, guests will feel ‘away from it all’ and can explore the Estate’s long coastline on to open sea and Loch Eriboll with views to Ben Hope and Ben Loyal. Although feeling remote and unspoilt, Rispond is well positioned for the amenities of Durness 4 miles away where there is a small supermarket, award-winning coffee shop and chocolatier, pop up food wagons, a hotel/bar, fuel and beautiful white sandy beaches protected by rocks and hills. The nearest sandy beach, Ceannabeinne, is stunningly beautiful and a short stroll from the Estate.

The Fish House is stocked with white bed linen, towels and quality hand soaps, shower gel, shampoo and conditioner. A welcome hamper is provided on arrival containing eggs, milk, butter, bread, marmalade or jam, tea, ground coffee and other local produce so that guests have provisions for their arrival and first breakfast. Scottish rapeseed oil and pepper/salt are provided for cooking.

The property itself is an historic stone building with views to the hills and a stylish open-plan living room and dining area, with 4 en-suite bedrooms sleeping up to 8 guests. There are leather sofas, Harris Tweed furnishings and wooden floors in the 1st floor living area with log burner. A separate living room on ground floor has a TV and DVD player. A well-equipped kitchen with a large dining table leads off the living area. Two bedrooms on the 2nd floor have a kingsize bed and the other two (on ground floor) each have 2 x 3ft singles that can be linked into a Super King bed on request. All bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms with showers.

Rispond is a tranquil place and a haven for wildlife – deer, otters, eagles and abundant bird life are regularly seen with the occasional Atlantic grey seal popping up in the harbour. As well as walking along the coast and Loch Eriboll with beautiful views of Ben Hope and Ben Loyal, kayaking, sailing, fishing and golf are all available right on the doorstep. Sea and brown trout fishing is available on the Estate (no licence required). It is a short drive to Keodale where guests can take the 10 minute seasonal ferry to Cape Wrath, the most north-westerly point in Great Britain.

The nearest beach, just a short stroll from the house is outstanding and is a perfect crescent of white sand bounded by rocks and hills. Beach 600 yards.
