General Intro:

The house is in the small village street half way between the shop and the Poolewe Hotel.
Caberfeidh has three bedrooms and provides comfortable accommodation for five people. It is all electric, heated by off-peak storage heaters with the additional option of an open hearth in the sitting room.

What we Provide:

We provide pillows, duvets and duvet covers but not other linen, so visitors need to bring their own sheets, pillow cases, and towels.

Note: Electricity is not included and a cheque for the balance of rent, plus electricity and the cost of any phone calls, is due at the end of the stay.

Sitting Room:
This is on the ground floor at the front of the house. It is heated by a storage heater and there is also an open hearth for those who like to use it (fireguard provided). Small bags of coal or peat can be bought locally. There is also an electric convection heater available. We have a small collection of books including some about the area and local wildlife.

There is a colour TV, a DVD player and mini audio system (for which people would need to bring their own CDs, tapes or DVDs). There is also a set of both Scrabble and Trivial Pursuit. The telephone is in the sitting room.
