THE MAIN HOUSE
DESCRIPTION
The main house at 5 Diabaig was built in 2004 by the current owners. The property has been completed to a high standard and sited and designed to take advantage of the breathtaking views over Loch Diabaig. With its slate roof and sympathetic proportions, the house sits comfortably in the landscape, while the full length windows fill the house with light and take advantage of the views. The interior is beautifully appointed and the understated finishes and colour scheme allow the accommodation to flow and the landscape to take centre stage.

LILY LODGE AND MANGO PONY BOTHY
DESCRIPTION
The existing bothy and land were bought by the owners in 2010 and Lily Lodge was built and the bothy converted in 2018. Since then both have been highly successful, year round holiday lets, achieving high occupancy levels and with many repeat bookings.
Lily Lodge has been completed to the same high standard as the main house with beautifully presented and well-appointed accommodation, ideal for use as a family home as well as a holiday let.

THE CROFT
The owner occupied, registered croft extends to approximately 5.11 acres. There is a block of mature, broadleaf woodland on the south-western boundary, while the remaining land is rough grazing divided into a number of fields.
