Cool stay of the week: a Scandi-style hideaway with views of Eilean Donan Castle

A visit to the Scottish Highlands promises three things: stunning scenery, fresh sea food and lochs aplenty.

Which is why we’re heading north for our Cool Stay of the Week to 57 Nord – a Scandi-style hideaway for two just south of the Isle of Skye .

The views alone are enough to entice any visitor – with the ever-Instagrammable Eilean Donan Castle flanked by the backdrop of Loch Duich and the Kintail Mountains.

Inside you’ll find interiors to match the beautiful scenery, honouring the Norse-Gael heritage in western Scotland.

The luxe balance of modern Scandinavian and mid-century Scottish craftsmanship is offset by the large windows, comfy sofas, a petite kitchen, deep soak tub and crackling fire to warm even the coldest winter nights.

Situated in an ideal area for foodies, with plenty of pubs and restaurants nearby, the region is also dotted with distilleries of both the whiskey and gin variety.

If you’re looking to explore, the Isle of Skye, Loch Ness and Fort William are all close by.

Where: Wester Ross, Scotland.

Sleeps: 2.

Price: £1,750 to £2,250 per week.
