Set on the shores of Loch Shin, Overscaig offers a peaceful Highland escape surrounded by wildlife, sweeping views and complete tranquillity. Deer wander through the garden, the hills rise in quiet layers around you, and the loch changes mood with every hour. Both the main house and the annexe provide warm, comfortable living spaces, well-equipped kitchens, cosy bedrooms and beautiful views across the water and landscape. Guests can enjoy open fires, spacious relaxing areas, a cinema room, a snooker room, fast WiFi and plenty of room for families, couples or groups. With direct loch access, you can fish, launch a paddleboard or kayak, or simply sit outside and watch the light move across the water. Several nearby lochs are also available for fishing. Remote, atmospheric and unforgettable, Overscaig is perfect for those seeking nature, adventure, calm and the true magic of the Scottish Highlands.

Overscaig sits along the main road that follows the shores of Loch Shin, giving guests the rare mix of easy access and true Highland wilderness. From your door, the landscape opens into sweeping hills, quiet moorland and the vast, ever-changing waters of the loch. Despite being on the main route, the area remains peaceful and unspoiled, with only light local traffic and uninterrupted views in every direction. Wildlife is part of daily life here deer graze near the house, birds of prey circle above, and the scenery shifts with the weather, offering dramatic storms one day and still, glassy mornings the next. The location is ideal for exploring the North Highlands, with walking routes, fishing lochs, viewpoints and NC500 stretches all within an easy drive. Remote enough to feel like an escape, yet straightforward to reach, this is a neighbourhood defined by nature, calm and wide-open space, perfect for guests seeking both comfort and adventure.
