Set in beautiful Glen Duror in the heart of the highlands, and less than 1000 metres from the beach at Cuil Bay, Lorien is an idyllic three bedroom detached cottage with stunning mountain views, forest walks and rivers right on its doorstep. It is the perfect location to explore the Scottish Highlands or to take part in outdoor activities such as ski-ing, climbing and watersports. The three bedroom cottage stands on the very edge of the village. Bright and spacious, it has been fully modernised to provide a contemporary, stylish and relaxing living space. There is attractive modern wooden flooring throughout. The house has full electric central heating and is double glazed. There is also a real fireplace in the living room. The house has a beautiful, large leafy enclosed garden and there is on site parking for up to four cars. Glencoe, with its facilities for walking, climbing, and skiing is just seven miles away, while the town of Fort William, Britain’s highest mountain ‘Ben Nevis’ and the Nevis Ski Centre are just 16 miles to the north. The seaside town of Oban with all its facilities (including boat trips to the Scottish Islands) is just 20 miles to the south. Duror village is the birthplace of Scottish hero ‘James of the Glen’ who Robert Louis Stephenson immortalise immortalised in his famous novel ‘Kidnapped’. The short walk to his birthplace is signed from the cottage. The village also has a shop/post office and hotel restaurant/bar within walking distance.
