Shell Cottage is a refurbished traditional croft house in the township of Culduie in Applecross. It has stunning views over the Skye and Raasay, with cosy living room and garden room areas for guests to enjoy.
I love running our little B&B and sharing tips and recommendations for our local area with visitors, and helping to ensure they have a wonderful stay with happy memories!
Applecross is a peninsula made up of little townships. We live in Culduie, which is the south end of Applecross. The house is positioned on a small lane, with working crofts in front (small holdings for animals and produce) and gorgeous views. Applecross is the antithesis to a city, so it's perfect if you are looking for a little escape.
