The property enjoys an elevated position with uninterrupted views of the white sandy beach of Stoer Bay, and the dramatic peaks of Stac Pollaidh, Suilven and Canisp. Hike to the Old Man of Stoer, a 60 metre sea stack, one of Scotland’s most iconic sites.
Heading inland, all that remains of Ardvreck Castle is a dramatic ruined tower, jutting out into the sky. Sitting atop a tiny peninsula in the middle of the Loch Assynt,ringed by mountains, the castle is a fantastic spot to take breathtaking photos.
The property makes an ideal base for those wanting to explore the Assynt Peninsula.

The location is fantastic, set above a very quiet beach. The house was well equipped and spotlessly clean, even underneath the beds. It is an old building with it's own quirks and creaky floorboards, and there is only one bathroom, which may be an issue for larger groups. The fridge although clean, was missing a few shelves and some of the windows wouldn't open. A little bit of repair/refurbishment is needed in places e.g. broken curtain pole and splitting the bathroom to get an extra toilet would be great. Having said all that, we had a lovely time in Stoer Lodge.

Thank you for your feedback on your stay at Stoer Lodge. The owners are closing Stoer Lodge for renovations from the end of October 2026 - March 2027 and will be replacing the kitchen and all windows in the living room, with remodelling to include 2 new sea facing picture windows in the living room.
We had a great stay at Stoer Lodge, very efficiently arranged through Wilderness Cottages. The staff at Wilderness are really friendly and helpful and made the whole process of booking easy. The house was as described and just what we wanted.
Stoer Lodge is a unique location. The lodge provides everything you want and then there is the view. Have been lucky to stay a few times and have experienced a fantastic array of weather all in a week. Seb (German Shepherd) loves the beach and walks. We could go on ... never disappoints. Thank you.
I absolutely love this location. The sound of the waves on the beach and the variety of walks and stunning scenery. An amazing break in a very comfortable home from home.
Beautiful location, cottage is warm and comfy. The local scenery and beaches are amazing, we've already booked again for next year!
Easy booking process and great communication. Beautiful old school house with some original features and felt like home from home. Stunning location and we had a quiet, peaceful week. The dog loved the enclosed garden and her 'private beach' would return and highly recommend
