About this property

Luxury 5-bedroom architect-designed detached house, loch frontage, superb views

Coopers Knowe House sleeps up to 10 in five spacious double bedrooms, each of which has its own en suite. Sitting directly on the shores of Lochailort, a sea loch in the Scottish Highlands just north of the Ardnamurchan peninsular, the property has been designed to take full advantage of the stunning local scenery and there are breathtaking views from more or less every window. The house sits on its own private estate of some 60 acres. There is a pebble beach directly in front of the house and another with white sand a short walk away. Guests enjoy fixtures and furnishings of a very high standard as well as a choice of two sitting rooms, a dining room, breakfasting kitchen and a games room complete with pool table with table tennis top and additional TV. The house is situated in a wonderfully peaceful location but is within a short drive of Fort William and Mallaig and can be reached in under three hours from Glasgow Airport. The surrounding area offers great walking, a range of scenic excursions for the sea kayaking enthusiast as well as sea trout and mackerel fishing without the need to travel. Day trip options include Skye, the small isles of Rhum, Eigg and Muck, a tour of the Ardnamurchan peninsular and for the Harry Potter fan a journey on the Jacobite Steam Train over the Glenfinnan viaduct. Within a short drive of the house there are a number of fantastic inns, restaurants and hotels providing good food ranging from traditional pub fare to fine dining.

Superb property to stay at. Everything you need. Views outstanding from the house. Glenuig Inn 10min away has great food, if restaurant full they supply take away fish and chips. Staying sunsets near Glenuig over the water.

Stunning views
Home from home but on a much bigger scale, great house with all you need. 9 of us stayed 3 generations from 2yrs to 61 yrs and 2 German shepherds who loved the garden and the woods. It as great views and walks from the house. It is remote that's why we booked it, so be prepared to travel half hour to Mallaig and 45mins to fort william, has i say we like to be remote.

About the host

Hosted by Patricia Middleton

Host profile image
Since living in Glasgow for a couple of years when we were younger, my husband and I have regularly spent quite a lot of time in Scotland. My husband's energy business operates a number of small hydro electric power stations across Scotland and when land came up for sale opposite the hydro electric scheme we own in Roshven we jumped at the chance to build a holiday home on it.

Why they chose this property

Roshven is a very special place. The local area affords views that are up there with the best in the whole of the UK and you really do feel yourself unwinding the moment you enter the house. Sitting looking at the waves on the loch with a glass of wine or a wee dram in hand is the perfect antidote to the stresses and strains of modern life! But although the house is fairly remote, there's still quite a lot going on locally and plenty of places to visit within a short drive to ensure you don't get bored. And there are also lots of nice places nearby to sample Scottish hospitality.

What makes this property unique

I love seeing the deer strolling through the garden right outside the lounge window. I also particularly enjoy strolling through the woods to the sandy cove - on a clear day you'd think you were on a Greek island!
