Situated on the west coast, the village is built along the shores of Loch Inver. For many centuries it has been a safe haven for shipping on the west coast and the main traditional industries have always been fishing and fish curing.

Tour Scotland Photograph Cottage Lochinver


Tour Scotland photograph of an old Crofters cottage near Lochinver, Scotland. There are 17,700 crofts left in Scotland, all concentrated in the so called seven counties in the Highlands and Islands. Most are owned or rented by crofters who double up in other forms of employment, repairing the roads, fishing, forestry and tourism, apart from the basic business of crofting.
