The Estate properties are set in a quiet and remote location in an Area of Outstanding Beauty off the famous North Coast 500 road. Down the estate road and through the Estate gate, guests will feel ‘away from it all’ and can explore the Estate’s long coastline on to open sea and Loch Eriboll with views to Ben Hope and Ben Loyal. Although feeling remote and unspoilt, Rispond is well positioned for the amenities of Durness 4 miles away where there is a small supermarket, award-winning coffee shop and chocolatier, pop up food wagons, a hotel/bar, fuel and beautiful white sandy beaches protected by rocks and hills. The nearest sandy beach, Ceannabeinne, is stunningly beautiful and a short stroll from the Estate. The Cottage is stocked with white bed linen, towels and quality hand soaps, shower gel, shampoo and conditioner. A welcome pack is provided and Scottish rapeseed oil and pepper/salt are supplied for cooking. The property itself is an historic stone building with views across the harbour to the hills beyond. It has been thoughtfully arranged with the main living area on the first floor, making most of the views, with a wood burner and deep leather sofas providing a cosy atmosphere. A large sofa can be converted into a double bed whilst on the ground floor a beautifully presented double bedroom with a super king can be converted into two twin beds if desired. The bathroom has a bath and separate shower cubicle. Rispond is a tranquil place and a haven for wildlife – deer, otters, eagles and abundant bird life are regularly seen with the occasional Atlantic grey seal popping up in the harbour. As well as walking along the coast and Loch Eriboll with beautiful views of Ben Hope and Ben Loyal, kayaking, sailing, fishing and golf are all available right on the doorstep. Sea and brown trout fishing is available on the Estate (no licence required). It is a short drive to Keodale where guests can take the 10 minute seasonal ferry to Cape Wrath, the most north-westerly point in Great Britain. The nearest beach, just a short stroll from the house is outstanding and is a perfect crescent of white sand bounded by rocks and hills. Beach 600 yards, shop, pub and restaurant 3 miles.

The owners are selling and it will be under new management soon. The internet access was unusually poor but I understand is not normally strong. it is an idylllic and historic location with a small harbour, although the view is from the house is a little limited by the main building. There are all necessary amentities except a church within a few miles and the local beaches are astonishingly beautiful. We swam. ##### MITCHELL LEIMON Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Alison C. 25 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### May 2025 Lovely cottage, well equipped. Very comfortable, tranquil location. Excellent Laundy area. Amazing welcome package. Wi-Fi slow to even non-existent at times. The photos don't show that you have a house right in front of you (albeit part of the estate) and the beach is further away than expected. ##### Alison C.

Nach Betreten der Ferienwohnung waren wir aber sehr angenehm überrascht. Leider kamen wir fast nie ins Netz, um Kontakt mit zu Hause in Deutschland aufzunehmen. Der Gastgeber, der uns persönlich begrüßte war sehr freundlich und erklärte uns alles. Wer Natur und Ruhe schätzt, der ist hier richtig. Zudem ist man in wenigen Minuten in Durness. ##### Horst G.
