Cross Bothy, Glenancross, Morar, By Mallaig, PH40 4PD

CHARMING END-TERRACE STONE COTTAGE

Quietly situated in the heart of the coastal settlement of Glenancross, near the village of Morar, Cross Bothy forms a traditional, end-terrace stone cottage, just a short walk from the famous, breath-taking white sands of Camusdarach Beach, recently highlighted by the Sunday Times as one of the ten best seaside areas of the UK. Dating back to the 19th Century, this charming conversion was previously a property of two parts, a converted self-contained bothy, which was used as a self-catering studio unit, comprising a lounge/bedroom area with stove, kitchen, bathroom and a large steading byre, used for storage. In early 2024, The Bothy, whilst remaining a self-contained unit with lockable adjoining door, was extended through into the Byre area, adding a stunning lounge/diner area with vaulted ceiling, modern kitchen, shower room, a mezzanine  level and access to two attic rooms. Cross Bothy is in 'walk-in' condition, whilst the well maintained garden to the front, compliments the property and provides additional parking. Due to the size and location, the property would also be ideally suited as a permanent home or idyllic holiday retreat.

Glenancross is located 2 miles from Morar, a popular West Coast village, situated on the road between Fort William and Mallaig - 'The Road to the Isles'. With its coastal situation, it is an ideal location from which to explore this extremely attractive part of the Highlands and Inner Isles.  Morar itself has a primary school, shops, hotel, garage, church, etc with further facilities being available at Arisaig, Mallaig and Fort William - to which there is a link by both road and rail. Travelling by road, Mallaig is around 45 minutes from Fort William. Secondary schools are available in both Mallaig and Fort William.
