Cool stay of the week: a Highlands retreat on the banks of Loch Alsh

Nestled in the wild landscape of the Scottish Highlands, we’re heading north for this week’s Cool Stay of the Week.

The Field House, with its breath-taking views of Loch Alsh, is set on a hillside with a Scandi-style façade to match its chic interior.

The open-plan interior has been beautifully designed, with large windows drinking in the views from the coastal Loch, flooding the room with an ever-changing light. The moody greys of the fittings and furnishings perfectly complement the wooden floors and white walls that run throughout.

The kitchen is modern and spacious with a central island and breakfast bar - the perfect perch for your morning coffee. The sleek interior also houses a dishwasher, grill, hob, oven, refrigerator, freezer, toaster and cooking utensils.

On cold Scottish evenings, cosy up on the sofas in front of the large flatscreen TV and a modern log burning fire or enjoy a feast at the dining table which offers the best views in the house.

The two double bedrooms are effortlessly welcoming - with soft grey linen, warm wooden floors and fabulous design touches.

(CoolStays)

Situated near to Skye, Torridon and the Five Sisters of Kintail, there’s plenty to explore. With hill walking, sea kayaking, mountain biking, paddle boarding and wild swimming all on your doorstep, it is the prime spot for adventure lovers. And for those less inclined to head out, we recommend putting on the kettle, lighting the fire and indulging in some of Scotland’s finest views.

Where? Kyle of Lochalsh.

Sleeps: four.

Price: £900 to £1,650 per week.
