July 2022 saw the renovation completed on Taigh Walker, one of our Kenovay croft houses. We have kept the name which this croft house is known locally as "Taigh Walker" (Walker's House) after being built and owned by generations of the Walker family until recent years.
Taigh Walker has been newly renovated to create a modern, bright, well appointed and peaceful house with uninterrupted panoramic views over fields to the Reef Reserve. View from the north to the islands of Rhum, Eigg and Canna; across the Lochaber and Argyll hills; to Mull with Ben More; onto Iona; to the Paps of Jura and Islay in the south.
Relax, unwind and listen to the calling Corncrakes and watch the surrounding wildlife with a 7 minute walk taking you down the road to the seals at Balephetrish Bay.
Centrally situated in the Crofting township of Kenovay, the house is an ideal base for walking, cycling and engaging in the island’s many outdoor activities as well as exploring the magnificent beaches and numerous cultural sites.
