Welcome to Kylesmorar

A peaceful retreat on Knoydart’s wild west coast

Tucked away on the breathtaking Knoydart Peninsula—one of the UK’s last true wildernesses—Kylesmorar Cottages offer an unforgettable escape from the modern world. Accessible only by boat or a long hike, our self-catering cottages are the perfect sanctuary for those seeking tranquillity, dramatic scenery, and a deep connection to nature.

Located in the remote village of Kylesmorar, overlooking Loch Nevis, each of our traditional cottages combines rustic charm with thoughtful comforts. Whether you’re looking to explore rugged mountain paths, spot wildlife along the loch, or simply unwind beside a wood-burning stove with a good book, Kylesmorar is your gateway to stillness and simplicity.

Why stay with us?

  • Unrivalled seclusion: No roads. No crowds. Just sea, sky, and space.
  • Comfort in the wild: Cosy, well-equipped cottages with everything you need for a self-sufficient stay.
  • Sustainable by nature: Low-impact living in harmony with our remote surroundings.
  • Endless adventure: Hike Munros, kayak with seals, or explore the coast straight from your doorstep.

Whether you’re here for a romantic retreat, a creative sabbatical, or an off-grid family holiday, Kylesmorar offers a rare kind of stillness—where time slows down, and nature takes centre stage.
