Tinhouse is an architectural essay in landscape, construction and material. It celebrates the agricultural vernacular in a thoroughly contemporary way. The corrugated metal cladding outside is married to a palette of timber, concrete and plywood internally which gives the house a hand crafted character that is simultaneously modern and rustic.
The open plan living, dining, and kitchen space features a panoramic window overlooking the sea, the cliffs and the distant islands. The summer sunsets are something that memories can be made of. Inside you will find a log burner, built-in sofa and a fully fitted kitchen. The bedroom also features a cathedral ceiling, super king size bed and once again a beautiful view. The bathroom comprises a separate double bath and drench shower.

As an average rule of thumb we are 5.5 – 6 hours drive from Glasgow, a little longer from Edinburgh, 3 – 3.5 hours from Inverness, 3 hours from Fort William and 1.5 hours from the Skye Bridge. The journey alone is probably one of the most beautiful however we do always recommend that you look out for the wild deer through Cluanie, the feral goats in Glenshiel, llamas in Kintail and of course the sheep all over Skye.
