The cottage

Welcome to Taigh Sheonaidh, 'Johnny's House'

Johnny was the last of multi-generational sheep crofters to work the valley of Glendale and call his house home.

Since then, the property has been fully modernised inside — underfloor heating, two ensuite double bedrooms, a sunroom framing 180° of the valley — yet the enchanting views and tranquility felt at Johnny's House remain all the same.

  • 2 double ensuite bedrooms
  • Underfloor heating throughout
  • Sunroom with 180° glen views
  • Two working fireplaces
  • Fully equipped kitchen
  • Large private garden & patio
