Seascape Cottage
Brilliant, had a marvelous time, enjoyed the walking, area, people especially the owners. Accommodation was immaculate, not a thing out of place, very comfortable and peaceful. Thanks to you all.
The Old Post Office
The Old Post Office has been attractively refurbished and is a very clean, comfortable, well-equipped house. From the living/dining room you look directly onto Clashnessie beach, beautiful at any time of day or night and regardless of the weather. The house is quiet and our bed (ground floor) was very comfortable. We enjoyed the log-burner some evenings and the house is generally warm and well-insulated. We love the local landscape and loved being back in this stunning part of Scotland. Our stay was very relaxing and enjoyable. It is our first experience of Wilderness Cottages and we found both Judith and Julie very helpful and friendly.

Tor Cottage
This was a lucky booking after a last minute cancellation. So pleased we managed to spend a week here and would love to think it will be available in the future. It was perfect in every way and it will be extremely difficult to find something to match it. The setting is stunning and just a ideal distance from Tarbert. Everything inside is of a high quality and there is everything you need including lots of excellent reading material. John and Ruth made us feel very welcome.. we were very sorry to leave.
Ardbeg
Absolutely fantastic, chosen for a get together with our daughters and their partners and Sizzle the mini dachshund the space is perfect and the view amazing. From arrival to leaving no problems. The kitchen is well equipped for eating in or some great places to eat Gairloch. Highly recommend, a great holiday cottage. Thank you
South Lodge
We had a wonderfull stay in South Lodge. The house the exceptional view and absolute silence were overwhelming. We would say GOGOGO?????. From Holland it is not far so living in Brittain it is around the corner
Shore Cottage
3rd stay. Just love the location as do our mad collies. Very mixed weather...But still got a tan...???? Just wish the ' driveway' to it was in better condition.
Port Elgol Cottage
Thank you for letting us stay in your lovely cottage, we hope to return again.
Log House
Had a wonderful 2 weeks in a lovely log house. The only sad thing was the damage to the forest due to the storm in December. Loved every minute of our holiday and cant wait to come back in October.

The Coltsfoots
Lovely cabin, just minutes from the village centre but feels like you are out in the countryside. Great situation if you have a dog as can get out onto forestry path/walks from the cabin. It was very clean, well equipped & warm. Gordon came to check everything was ok after we arrived & then a small problem midweek was swiftly resolved by him. Will return when holidaying in area again. Highly recommend this holiday accommodation.
Tor Cottage
Tor cottage is a top quality accommodation set in a wonderful location. Walking is our passion and Tor Cottage provides that warm welcoming return after a day in the hills whatever the weather. Wonderful hosts !
The Mill
The Mill is located on such a picturesque hill side view that offers the most amazing sunrises. The property itself is very spacious and comfortable with tasteful decor throughout. Cleaning standards are very high too, spotless throughout. Location of the property is just perfect for a drive to the coast or inland. We filled a full week with adventures locally and we will return. 10/10

Ceol na Mara
Beautiful location, beautiful cottage everything you need, including a lovely new upgraded bathroom. Can't wait for our next visit
Grain Store
A fantastic property in a fantastic location, beautifully prepared and with great facilities. I cannot recommend the Grain Store (and indeed any of the 3 properties at Balneden Steading) enough. Superb!
Leachachan Cottage
Fantastic property in a superb location with stunning views. The cottage is so well equipped and thoughtfully laid out - we had a wonderful stay.
Ceol na Mara
Absolutely loved our stay at this cottage, it had everything we needed. Views from the lounge window over the Loch toward Skye were stunning. Owner was friendly and very helpful with any inquiries. We'll be back soon. Thanks again.
Sealight
Beautiful House in a stunning location; we had a lovely week at Sealight and would love to go back sometime.

Seahorses
Really enjoyed our stay at Seahorses. Views spectacular and the cottage was perfect. Well equipped and peaceful. Excellent communication from Wilderness Cottages. Thank you
Callakille
I can only hugely recommend this lovely cottage and it's magnificent setting.
Cala
A wonderful house in a sublime setting. My daughter and I are coming to the end of our week stay here. The house itself is a fabulously designed home tailored to the surrounding geography and, of course the elements. Warm and cosy, peaceful and aesthetically ultra appealing to our tastes. A complete treat to stay here and a huge thank you to the owners for enabling us to do so. We enjoyed huge days out hill walking and being able to return to a peaceful extremely relaxing home (with fantastic bathrooms) has been wonderfully relaxing for us both. Thank you, Jess and Gary
Seascape Cottage
Fantastic stay everything you need is their , beautiful cottage, spotless comfortable, views are stunning walks are awesome, but Sarah is a wonderful genuine person and will do anything to help you out if in need, even better when the local wild life pose for a photo out side of your window,,for the road - pathetic down to cottage is very bumpy rocky just go very slow with car.
Beach Lodge
We had a wonderful stay at Beach Lodge. Such an amazing location with direct access to the beach. The lodge was warm, comfortable and nicely presented on our arrival. We liked the large dining table and fire in the dining room and equally loved relaxing in the main living area. Outside there is a lovely sitting area which is protected from the weather and despite the rain we were able to sit here, have a BBQ and enjoy the fresh air. It is off the beaten track and the very last part of the road requires a higher vehicle. This is why we booked of course for a relaxing week, walking and enjoying the beach with our dogs. Take plenty of provisions if you don't want to do a daily shopping trip. (There is an adequate freezer and fridge.) However Stranraer,a short drive away offers a good range of supermarkets for provisions. Additional logs were provided by the owner for a small and reasonable cost. This was really only needed for the ambiance of the fires because the lodge was actually really warm. The kitchen provides all amenities, and a range of cooking options. All in all, a very nice, relaxing stay with the family, in a stunning location.

Sealight
We had a wonderful stay at Sealight and the cottage had everything we needed for a stress-free, relaxing week. The Ardnamurchan Peninsula is simply breathtaking.
Stablemans Lodge
We stayed at Stablemans Lodge for a week in February which was excellent. This is the second time we've stayed and really enjoyed it. Perfect location and surroundings, with easy access to beautiful countryside. We shall definitely be returning again.
Seascape Cottage
This was our second visit to seascape cottage, we have had a wonderful week, beautiful weather for February too! Sarah is such an amazing host and the welcome pack was huge-very generous ! The bays and coves, the views from the floor to ceiling windows, the wildlife, the peace and tranquility of the area is second to none. The cottage was spotless on arrival. Sarah has thought of everything from dishwasher tablets and tin foil to fishing nets and balls for the dog etc. We loved seeing the deer in the field at breakfast and seals bobbing about in the bay-wish we could have stayed longer. We hope to be back soon! Thank you once again for a wonderful stay.
Cedar Cottage
We had the most wonderful stay at Cedar Cottage, it's a real home from home. We had multiple daily visits from red squirrels and lots of birds, we were really happy to see that enough bird food was provided for our whole stay. The living room is really cosy in the evenings with the fire going, although not needed as the cottage is a lovely warm temperature anyway, but coal, logs and kindling all provided if you want a fire. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need to do your own cooking, and it was a nice touch to provide teabags and milk for our arrival, as well as a bottle of wine and chocolates! It's in a great location, very quiet and with a lovely forest walk just through the garden gate. We wish we could've stayed for a lot longer. We will definitely return!
Ceol na Mara
Very comfortable cottage right on the shore of Loch Kishorn. Comfortable bed, and living room, well equiped kitchen. We enjoyed sitting in the lounge, looking through the living room window, watching the weather travel across the loch. There is a track down past the house to park the car on the side of the house, and space on the road above. Nearest shop is Loch Carron approx 7 miles away. Good communication with the owner. Beautiful walks and cycle rides, hardly any traffic around.
Old Lock Keepers Cottage
Very clean, warm and comfortable cottage. In a lovely quiet setting with some nice local walks. All the essentials needed were provided. (It is definitely best to arrive in daylight. The weir when shallow water is flowing over is safe to cross but would be a bit unnerving if you arrived in the dark). We visited for a joint pearl anniversary and have loved our week at the old lock keepers cottage. Thank you
Charleston
If we could give 10 stars we would. What an amazing week we have had. The pooches loved the garden and never once bothered with the sheep. Views from every window are breathtaking , the cottage itself was so cozy warm and clean and the beds so comfortable. The showers are brilliant. Not one single complaint. That good we are booking for next year.
Shore Cottage
Fantastic location, peaceful and relaxing with superb quiet beach literally on your doorstep. Cottage is spacious and well equipped. Decor could use a little attention but nothing that should worry anyone. The road in was fine in a Skoda Yeti 4x4. Not sure would attempt in anything with less ground clearance and in anything but ideal weather 4 wheel drive is required. Our holiday snaps https://youtu.be/U36v5tQcCVc?si=ZCN60CgodwFBhCH3 should give some idea of the location.
Coorie
Our second time staying at Coorie and it was as lovely as the first time. Being there in the winter, the excellent heating system and cosiness was just perfect. No bin liners provided and also no dishwasher tablets so remember to take your own if you're staying. The heated towel rail was broken so the tumble dryer came in handy. Overall a lovely, comfortable cottage in a beautiful spot.
Wilderness Cottages Replied...
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and feeback on Coorie. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay. We have contacted the owner who apologised that there were no bin liners and dish washer tablets, as they are normally provided . They are aware that heated towel rail needs a new heating element which has been ordered and will be in full working order again shortly.
Seahorses
Seahorses is a stunning place within a jaw dropping location and scenery. The property was extremely comfortable and cosy and one of the best equipped places we have stayed. This includes very well equipped kitchen, loads of local guide books and maps, a huge DVD library, torches, binoculars, viewing and star gazing scopes etc. we were snowed in for nearly 5 days before the local snow plough could clear the road which was gorgeous just to sit and enjoy the scenery. Just make sure you have plenty of supplies and logs for the fire. The owner and housekeeper were really nice and helpful, and some of the locals were really nice and offered help in the snow if we needed it. We will definitely return sometime to do some local touring, which the Scottish winter stopped us doing this time.
Seal Skerry Lodge
Stunning house in a beautiful and remote part of Skye. The local walking and the incredible shop at Glendale (5 mins away) meant that we could really unwind and not drive every day. The house is warm and well built and tasteful. The weather in Skye is of course 4 seasons in a day (in January), but that is part of the romance and appeal. My only comment (and it is just that and others have also remarked) is that for 4 adults who like to cook and enjoy food there could be a bit more kitchen equipment and cutlery and crockery. But overall a well deserved 5 star review. Faultless service as always by Wilderness Cottages who are always great.
South Lodge
Beautiful cottage we stayed at in March 2023. It was still quite chilly at the time and the cottage does not keep warmth very long. It is fully equipped and has everything one needs. In front of the house, there is a bench from where you can look at the sea and enjoy nature and wildlife. Beautiful and remote spot to relax!
Shore Cottage
During this our fifth stay at the cottage I had occasion to contact the owners. Their response was excellent, really helpful which is very reassuring.
Seal Skerry Lodge
We had the amazing pleasure of spending one week at Seal Skerry Cottage on the Isle of Skye from the 18th-25th of November 2023. We cannot recommend the is cottage enough. We loved it so much that we have already booked to go again this winter, and cannot wait. We arrived after dark to the living room heater being on to welcome us, which was a lovely touch. Along with a really nice bottle of wine to enjoy infront of the log fire. All areas of the cottage wear spotlessly clean, plenty of clean towels and a very powerful shower. The local area of Glendale village is just a 10 minute drive away with a local shop, post office and cafe. The stars at night were a dream to sit and watch. The owners should be very proud of what they have achieved. They have truly created a home from home feel. See you again at the end of the year and thank you from our girls and doggies too. The Morgan Family.
Sealight
Wow, what a place. We were snowed in for 4 days but sealight was the perfect place to experience this, FAULTLESS! Would highly recommend!

Oak Cottage
Excellent cottage, just as described. Warm and comfortable amidst peaceful and beautiful surroundings. Welcome items were appreciated.
Upper Folds
Fabulous place to see in the new year 2024! Last visited in 2019 and was exactly as we remembered. Off grid de- stress with added snow to complement the picture postcard view. The 4 wheel drive vehicle was definitely a requirement on this visit!
