When will you come?
Scàl's Broch
A one bedroom hide-away with a huge living space and a very large bathroom and sauna, costs £1910 per week from May to the end of September and over the Christmas and New Year period, and £1800 per week in April and October. It is quite possible to rent from, say, a Monday, and to depart the following week on a Wednesday, or whatever suits you best. We do, however, stipulate a minimum stay of six days, unless there are “infills” of four or five days (this doesn’t apply over Christmas and New Year when a week’s let is the minimum), and in exceptional cases, even three days. Additional days are charged at one seventh of the weekly rate. Shorter stays attract a higher daily rate.
Gille Buidhe's Broch
This luxury home from home is available, at a weekly rate of £2266 from May to the end of September and £2055 in April and October. The same flexibility about dates and length of stay apply as in Scal’s Broch. Our prices include VAT, unlimited use of the sauna, WiFi broadband, a basket of logs for the woodburner, linen, toiletries, towels and so on. For stays of twelve days or more, we supply on request fresh towels and bed linen at your half time.
Late Autumn & Early Spring
In autumn and winter, the sun creeps low over the horizon and bathes the landscape in an ever changing light - a light that you would not experience anywhere else. It is a time of the year when not many visitors venture that far north. We think it can be a most rewarding time.
The optical phenomena of nature are quite something else. The panoramic windows of The Brochs of Coigach give you the feeling of being outdoors, though you are sitting perfectly cosy in your living room. At this time of the year, we are quite a bit cheaper, too. As they say at Tesco's, every little bit helps. In November and March, Scàl’s Broch costs £1336 per week. Our weekly off-season rate for Gille Buidhe’s Broch comes to just £1636.
The Brochs will be closed in December, January and February apart from the Christmas and New Year period, when the high season rates apply and each booking will begin and end on a Saturday.
Dog Matters
We are mad about our dogs. Max is a working collie, Tilly tries to follow in his footsteps, and Alfie is a pretty useless border terrier. We love them to bits. We understand that you don't want to leave your dog at home when you come to have a wonderful time at The Brochs of Coigach. We wouldn't. He or she can have so much fun with you, in particular on the beach. So if you stay in Gille Buidhe's Broch, your dog is as welcome as you are.
We are, however, sure you will understand that we keep Scàl’s Broch pet-free for guests who are allergic to animals. There are of course a few ground rules. Your pooch mustn't enter the bedrooms. He or she is as careful as you are with all The Brochs' belongings and doesn't scratch, or jump on, furniture. He or she doesn't worry sheep. And you clean up his or her poo. But you would do that anyway, so why do I mention it?
Most importantly, though, you should appreciate the amount of money, love and labour local sheep farmers invest into their flocks. Sheep, despite their rugged appearance, are fickle animals. Please keep your dogs on a lead at all times when you walk along the roads or over the hills. Otherwise, you might cause disruption without even noticing.
Oh, and please let us know in advance if you intend to bring a pet. There is a small extra charge, £15 per dog per day.
