Burnside Cottage is in the hamlet of Dornie near Kyle of Lochalsh. The property is in a beautiful setting, along a lane of traditional houses and with stunning views over Loch Long and to Eilean Donan Castle.

The west coast is famous for its unique coastline of sheltered bays, wide sandy beaches and beautiful island views with a backdrop of dramatic mountain peaks. This area has long been a popular tourist destination with its easy access to Skye and Plockton and its famous landmarks of Eilean Donan Castle and the Five Sisters of Kintail. Yet, just a short distance away from the busy tourist centres, the countryside offers a haven of peace where native wildlife and flora are plentiful and breathtaking views are the norm.

Dornie is a charming former fishing village, set at the point where Loch Duich, Loch Alsh and Loch Long meet. The village has a shop, Post Office, popular pub and hotel, while nearby Kyle of Lochalsh, where the bridge crosses to Skye, offers a good range of shops and facilities as well as a railway station. There are a number of options for primary schooling and secondary schooling is available in Plockton. Inverness, about 2 hour’s drive away, has all the facilities of a modern city including its airport with regular flights to the south and Europe.


The current owner purchased Burnside in 2004 and has recently fully refurbished the property to create very comfortable and easily managed single storey accommodation. The improvements carried out include the installation of a new kitchen, a new electric heating system and complete redecoration.

There is an enclosed utility area to the rear and a communal garden at both the side and in front of the cottage. A parking bay across the road provides off-street parking.

Burnside Cottage has formerly been both a residential and a successful holiday let.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on October 23, 2023

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on October 23, 2023

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
