Lochshiel Caravans, situated in the picturesque village of Acharacle in the Highlands of Scotland, offer a comfortable and tranquil retreat on a working croft. The site features three clean and cozy caravans, each equipped with their own parking space and private outdoor area, showcasing stunning views of Loch Shiel. Guests are advised to bring their own linen and towels, as the caravans are furnished with duvets and pillows. Notably, Caravan 3 accommodates up to three guests with one double bed and one single bed, and it is pet-friendly, requiring prior communication regarding any pets before booking.
Acharacle, named after the Gaelic term Ath Tharracail, is steeped in history, dating back to a battle in 1120. The village is conveniently located just a 15-minute walk from the caravans, providing access to local amenities such as shops, cafes, a hotel, and a post office. Additionally, the local bus route to Fort William and Mallaig is only a three-minute walk away, making it an ideal base for exploring the breathtaking landscapes of the Ardnamurchan Peninsula, Moidart, Sunart, and the Nevis Range.
The area surrounding Lochshiel is renowned for its outdoor activities, including fishing, kayaking, and hiking. Visitors can enjoy boat hires and cruises on Loch Shiel and Loch Sunart, with opportunities for whale and bird watching. The stunning beach of Artoe is a mere ten-minute drive away, while the enchanting Singing Sands can be reached by foot. Furthermore, the historic ruin of Castle Tioram is located just ten minutes from the caravans, adding a touch of local heritage to the experience.
For those seeking further adventures, a drive to Ardnamurchan Lighthouse, the most westerly point of the British mainland, is highly recommended. Along the way, guests can stop at the Adelphi Distillery and the Glenmore Natural History Centre. Glenfinnan, famous for its steam train, often referred to as the "Harry Potter train," is also nearby, where visitors can explore the Monument of Bonnie Prince Charlie. The rural setting of Acharacle is perfect for exploring natural wonders such as Lochaber Geopark and the Singing Sands, while opportunities for game walks and birdwatching abound, making it a delightful destination for nature enthusiasts.
