The House
Looking out over the spacious lounge & dining area, the snug is a cosy hideaway located above the kitchen that hosts a 2-seater settee and satellite television with DVD player.
The well-lit kitchen contains a fridge, freezer, microwave, dishwasher and oven/grill as well as crockery and utensils. Open to the lounge/dining area, the kitchen offers views across the water to the island of Scalpay and further north towards Portree and the island of Raasay.
The open-plan lounge and dining area makes use of full height floor-to-ceiling windows to give an incredible panoramic view with scenery that will captivate you for hours.
Underfloor heating keeps you warm with no radiators to spoil the view. A 3-seater, 2-seater settee and armchair coupled with a glass coffee table create the perfect space to sit back, relax and watch the wildlife while a glass dining table offers one of the best views you will ever have to sit and enjoy your meals with.
A set of sliding doors open directly from the lounge onto a glass balcony. Perfect to watch the colours of the sunset shining in the sky across the water with a glass of wine.

To make the most of the view at Oir na Mara, the lounge is upstairs while the bedrooms are downstairs.
2 bedrooms, both equipped comfortable beds (one king-size and one double), a wardrobe and a chest of drawers create a comfortable area to sleep while the tucked away position of the house combined with the downstairs nature of the bedrooms give a quiet night even in the stormiest of weathers.

At the rear of the property, with sheltered views looking north towards Portree, our decked area, accessed directly from the house through a sliding door into the hallway provides a perfect area for a meal prepared on our charcoal barbeque or just to sit and unwind.
For incredible uninterrupted views across the water, the glass balcony accessed from the Lounge/Dining area is the perfect position to have a glass of wine, relax and watch the wildlife while taking in the colours of the evening sky over the islands.

There are 2 mid-sized bathrooms on the middle floor of Oir na Mara, one with a bath and the other with a shower. Both containing hand basins and toilets, they are finished to a high standard.
Set into a steep hillside, Oir na Mara sits in its own land away from the main road with the house entered down some steps from a private carpark. A rocky shore is accessible down a set of stone steps from the property, perfect for sea kayaking or open water swimming. (Always have a spotter present if swimming)
