Town: The renowned "Road to the Isles" ends in Mallaig, a vibrant and bustling fishing community that is well-liked by tourists who want to experience the feel of a working fishing port while also taking advantage of all the restaurants and shopping it has to offer. A ferry crosses the Minch from Mallaig to the Isle of Skye all year long, making it a fantastic entry point. The final station of the famed Jacobite steam train, which travels from Fort William to Mallaig and back through some of Scotland's most breath-taking landscapes, is Mallaig. This train was featured in the Harry Potter films.

An excellent location for a family stay

We booked Bourblach already for a second time. Communication possibilities with the agencies Fewo and Sykes may be improved, messaging with the owner was excellent.

Beautiful property

We stopped in Morar about halfway through our Scotland vacation and the cottage was absolutely breathtaking! We were able relax and truly enjoy the beauty of Scotland. Nearby Mallaig had wonderful restaurants. And on our walk to the beach we encountered sheep on the beach… you can’t ask for more than that!

Das Haus steht in atemberaubender Umgebung direkt über der Morar Bay. Es ist sehr gemütlich eingerichtet und bietet genügend Freiraum auch bei schlechtem Wetter. Die Küche ist mit allem Notwendigen ausgestattet. Aus zwei der Schlafzimmer hat man einen sehr schönen Blick auf die Bay. Bei Ebbe kann man fast von einer Seite der Bucht auf die andere laufen. Die Kommunikation mit dem Vermieter lief jederzeit zuverlässig und hilfsbereit.
