Old Photograph Cottages Arnisdale Scotland

Old photograph of cottages in Arnisdale on the north shore of Loch Hourn, around 10 miles down a single track road from Glenelg near the Isle of Skye, Scotland. This Scottish village is most famous as the closest settlement to Camusfeàrna, the house in which Gavin Maxwell wrote the auto-biographical story of his secluded life with his pet otters, Ring of Bright Water. It was also the departure point during the summer months for the ferry to the Barrisdale on Knoydart, across Loch Hourn, until the ferry stopped operating in 2011. Walkers often come to Arnisdale to climb Beinn Sgritheall.
