Lot 3 – Armadale Cabins About 9.79 acres/3.96 ha

Situated to the south of Armadale Castle and gardens, this lot combines six timber holiday cabins with a field of pasture and a copse of woodland on an elevated and gently sloping setting facing southeast with magnificent views. These cabins were originally constructed in the 1990s as holiday letting units to expand the commercial scope of the tourism facilities available at Armadale. They have proved extremely popular with high occupancy rates throughout the year and consistent repeat custom.

The cabins are named Antrim, Sleat, Glencoe, Keppoch, Glengarry and Clanranald after various septs of Clan Donald.

Each cabin is equipped for a relaxed, comfortable stay, with an open-plan living space that includes a kitchen and dining area, a bathroom, and bedrooms. Floor plans of each cabin are available on request from the selling agents.

Antrim and Sleat each have three bedrooms – a double, a twin, and a single – sleeping up to 5 guests.

Glencoe has three bedrooms – a king and two singles – sleeping up to 4 guests.

Glengarry is a ramped cabin with three bedrooms – a double and two singles – sleeping up to 4 guests.

Keppoch has two bedrooms – a double and a twin – sleeping up to 4 guests.

Clanranald has three bedrooms – a double and two singles – sleeping up to 4 guests.

Immediately in front of the lodges is an enclosed field of pasture of approximately 7 acres in extent. This may enable the purchaser to expand or develop the accommodation and tourism facilities within the site, subject to applying for and obtaining planning consent.

Summarised information about occupancy rates and recent annual letting income is available to keenly interested parties following their viewing.

This property has 9.79 acres of land.

Situation

The Armadale Castle Estate is located on the eastern shoreline of the Sleat peninsula and at the southern end of the Isle of Skye. Access to the peninsula is excellent with the A851 leading south from Broadford being a two-way road which has benefitted from extensive upgrading during the last 20 years. The village of Broadford provides a range of basic amenities including shop, petrol station, hotels and restaurants and can be reached in about 15-20 minutes’ drive from the estate.

From Broadford, the A87 connects to Kyle of Lochalsh on the Scottish mainland via the Skye Bridge and is around 30 minutes’ drive from the estate. As an alternative form of arrival at and departure from the Sleat peninsula, Caledonian MacBrayne operate a daily ferry service from Armadale to Mallaig on the Scottish mainland where, in turn, ferry sailings operate to the ‘Small Isles’ of Eigg, Rum, Muck and Canna. The journey time from the estate to Inverness (either via Kyle of Lochalsh or Mallaig) is around 2 hours’ driving time depending on the time of day and season.

With its combination of a majestic landscape including world famous features such as the Old Man of Storr and the Quiraing, the Fairy Pools and Kilt Rock; internationally renowned hotels and restaurants including Kinloch Lodge, The Three Chimneys and the Michelin-star Loch Bay, Skye is recognised as one of the most attractive holiday destinations in Europe.
