The Brochs of Coigach
Stunning Architecture in Scotland's Greatest Landscape

Two remarkable holiday houses on a hill above the sea

Gille Buidhe's Broch

is the ultimate holiday destination

for the most demanding visitors,

incorporating a huge observation

and drawing room, three further

rooms, a large kitchen and a

sumptuous bathroom with sauna.

Like a hotel, it is available on a

daily basis or for any period you wish.


Scàl's Broch

is a large one bedroom hide-away with an open plan kitchen and dining area, sitting and observation room, and a grand bath and sauna.

The Brochs of Coigach are modern recreations of an ancient concept. Brochs are Iron Age roundhouses peculiar to the northwest of the Scottish Highlands and Islands. Gille Buidhe and Scàl were two brothers who are said to have been the first people to settle Coigach, a remote peninsula in the sea that separates the Highlands of Scotland from the Hebrides. Coigach forms part of a renowned National Scenic Area.  

 

It is difficult to think of anything more relaxing than to sit outside The Brochs of Coigach on a still evening. A fishing boat is sailing into the setting sun below you. The only sounds you hear are innumerable birds singing and twittering, and perhaps in the distance a lone piper practising his instrument...

The Brochs of Coigach are as much works of  art as they are  the most luxurious holiday lets you can think of. These unique  buildings near the village of Achiltibuie  are embedded entirely in dry stone walls, timeless in appearance but contemporary in substance. The Brochs of Coigach are situated within four acres of their own ground at the end of a private farm track.
