Port Elgol Cottage
Enjoyed our stay in this lovely cottage. We came here with plans to explore Skye and because the cottage was so comfortable and the weather was so good we decided to stay local. Will definitely be back!
Charleston
Wonderful location, beautiful view and very comfortable house.
Seascape Cottage
Wonderful to swap the soundtrack to everyday life for the song of skylarks and waves washing onto the shore. Precious time simply to sit, look and truly 'switch off'. Perfect for the bird and wildlife watcher, as I am. The accommodation is exactly what I like - all that is needed and nothing fussy or extraneous; a well equipped kitchen and excellent bathroom. The warmest of welcomes. Lots of coastal walking and some driving to other sites such as the WW2 flying-boat base at Wig Bay and the Mull of Galloway - but mainly a lot of blessed peace. Thank you.
Pityoulish Cottage
The pictures don't really do this place justice, especially the views which are lovely from every window. The view down the Spey from the kitchen is fabulous and waking up to a view of the loch each morning was lovely. The garden is enormous and the fire pit and sitooterie really special. The location is good with a couple of short walks from the door and a short drive to the best bits of the Cairngorms. It is a traditional cottage so don't expect much headroom upstairs but it has been extended tastefully downstairs. The only reason I have not awarded five stars is because it could do with a freezer and microwave. Having an external washing machine is not a big issue, it's a 10 second walk away but it was quite old and took a bit of getting use to. All in all I would definitely be back. The views and homely feel more than make up for a few missing appliances.
Fhaireag
Eilean Mor Cottage
Lovely cottage with a great sun-room (and we had lots of sun!) very well equipped and in an ideal position for exploring northern Skye.
Rowan Ridge
Log Ness
Wow !! Log ness does not disappoint.. the location couldn't have been better and the lodge itself is just as breathtaking, I have never stayed somewhere so well equipped and maintained. There is everything you could wish for, a utensil for everything, herbs & spices, even dog bowls and dog biscuits !! We had the most amazing stay, watching the beautiful scenery and wildlife including a woodpecker that visited daily, having all the bird feeders around was amazing, I sat watching them and the beautiful sunsets for hours. We really did'nt want to leave !! I can't thank you enough for one of the best stays we have had in Scotland in a stunning location and great place to explore many other areas, and some beautiful walks. Highly recommended xx
Gate House
The Coltsfoots
The cottage was lovely and clean and in a beautiful setting. We had a fantastic and relaxing stay.
Sixgeary
Very comfortable house in a stunning location, with tremendous views over Loch Snizort. Enjoyed a very relaxing week exploring North west Skye and benefitted from some great weather and sunsets in the evening.
The Barn, Corrimony
Great location and lovely property we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Easter Knocklea Cottage
We enjoyed a great week at the cottage, which was clean, well equipped and furnished to a high standard. It really is a wilderness cottage with the neighbouring cottage being the only other one visible for what seems likes miles. Nevertheless Braemar is not that far away nor are the Munros accessible from Lin of Dee and Inverey - we climbed 13 during our stay! The highlight (for Dad) was our Jubilee Night Beacon in the huge fire bowl just outside the house.
Stablemans Lodge
Absolutely loved this unit. So central yo everything that we wanted to do. Clean, big enough for 4 adults and 2 children and the barbecue hut was the cherry in the top.
Loch Cottage
Third visit. Lovely cottage. The side facing the loch is a suntrap. Already talking about a rebook. The bird feeders attracted the usual small birds, but also 2 woopeckers, a cock pheasant and a squad of 6 ducklings with mother
Log House
What a joy! Really comfortable and the perfect base for exploring the area. Just far enough away from everything but also just near enough to everything. The house is really comfortable and well-equipped - the wi-fi was reliable enough for us to use an Amazon fire stick for Netflix and Disney+. The bird table bought us some exciting visitors in the shape of a red squirrel and a woodpecker and you can use the book in the house to identify your feathered visitors. The nightly departure of the bats also provided some entertainment - although any light sleepers in the double bedroom may need some ear plugs to not be disturbed by their nocturnal activities. We had a truly wonderful week :-)
Moll Cottage
Stablemans Lodge
We stayed in Stablemans Cottage from 18-25th May. It's situated within the grounds of a private house. Very quiet yet close to amenities . The cottage was very comfortable with lots of homely touches. It felt very lived in with art work and personal touches and not the usual sterile holiday let . It was cosy as the evenings were chilly , the wood stove was very efficient. There are many walks and holiday activities in the area. I would definitely recommend it to couples and families.
White-Tail Croft
We had a great week at White-Tail Croft. The peace and tranquility, the views and importantly the Croft itself were all amazing, we saw eagles, swallows, lots of sheep and rabbits and deer in the distance. Everything necessary for a relaxing stay was available within the Croft along with some very nice extras which included a bottle of bubbly and other nice treats. We explored the length and breadth of Skye and it was great to come back to the warmth and comfort of White-Tail Croft at the end of each day. Would highly recommend.
Charleston
I believe this was our 6th visit to Charlestown. Hopefully not our last. It's pure peace and relaxation. Spacious, clean and very well equipped. Such helpful and friendly owners too. We've never visited so late in the year before and I loved the long daylight hours and the stunning colours in the countryside. Thank you for a blissful two weeks.
Seascape Cottage
This was a beautiful cottage in a fabulous location. Very well equipped and spotlessly clean. Beautiful walks and wildlife to be seen right on your doorstep. The owner was lovely and helpful, but didn't invade our privacy, she left us a lovely welcome hamper, which came in very handy. We will definitely go back another time ????????????
Earth House
Stole our hearts! Perfect in every way. We got home and rebooked! Mum is 82 and can't do stairs or many steps, and we have two dogs so sometimes it's difficult to find a cottage. Earth house is a very special place, peaceful and quiet, we saw a otter feeding on the shore, the view is stunning, the location is perfect to explore local and further afield, the shore by the house is just fascinating and beautiful. Laide shop is excellent. Can't wait to get back! Thank you
Cedar Cottage
Excellent cottage, clearly much-loved and very well cared-for, in a wonderful location, especially good for dog owners with a secure enclosed garden and miles of forest walks outside the door. Budget for peanuts - the red squirrels visited daily, and along with other nut-lovers consumed about 1/2 a kilo of nuts a day. The area is full of interest, and as visitors from storm-wrecked Northumberland it was great to walk in Moray's very beautiful and largely undamaged forests.
Loch Cottage
Bring plenty of bird food to fill up the feeders, especially Nyger seeds. Also, bring your own essentials like salt, oil, sugar etc
Port Elgol Cottage
A most fantastically situated cottage, with incomparable views ( when the cloud allowed us to see them!). It was very comfortable, and had everything we needed, especially as we spent rather more time indoors than we would have wished, owing to the wet and very windy weather. We had 1 glorious day though, which we spent on the Aquaxplore trip to Canna - a truly magical experience with dolphins, a whale and birds. A fabulous spot which we highly recommend.
Taigh Druim
Timber House
Ceol na Mara
The cottage was spotlessly clean, and well equipped in a superb position, there are excellent places to eat out if required, all within 20 minutes. Friendly neighbours . We look forward to returning next year.
Shore Cottage
Wow just Wow for location We had a loverly week at shore cottage, we loved it was off grid near enough but in driving distance to Stranraer and Port Patrick. The cottage was nice, did lack that feeling of a welcome, no welcome pack, we have stayed in many places and always had either some bread, eggs, milk, biscuits as a nice gesture this would be a recommendation, we were slightly disappointed with the cleanliness of the cottage and the safety concern regards to the open fire, this needs attention and maintenance. The plus of having a conservatory was a bonus so enjoyed eating our meals in there on the wet days, sad the log burner was out of use. We loved the times sat on the decking listerning to the birds the sea and just taking in the pure peace and quiet . When the weather was good to us and clear it almost felt we could almost touch Ireland. The beach omg! What a luxury all week we hardly saw a sole only a few locals collecting seaweed, my goodness the walks were truely amazing and our little spaniel Isla loved every minute ran her little legs off but couldn't out run the deer on the beach haha. This was not just a holiday for us, but our honeymoon the location definitely made this even more special for us . The signage to the cottage could do with a refresh rewrite as we missed it several times. The driveway to the cottage is definitely not for a car but we loved it as having a 4x4 it was easy the cows went, weren't always willing to move haha. We were sad to leave but will be back for our first anniversary next year .
Seabank Cottage
Seabank Cottage was very comfortable and well equipped with everything you could need. Location was excellent, right in the village of Lochcarron with all amenities nearby, a lovely view of the loch outside the window as you eat and well positioned for visits to Attadale, Applecross and its pass, Eilean Donan Castle, Plockton and the Isle of Skye etc.
Katie's Cottage
A wonderful remote location to get away from normal life. The cottage is very clean and comfortable and provides a good base to explore the quieter areas of Skye. Don't expect the Wifi connectivity to be great and G4 mobile connectivity is intermittent.
Arrivain Cottage
Fantastic, cosy, comfortable and well-appointed, Arrivain is a lovely, peaceful place to stay. Jackie warmly welcomed us on arrival with enthusiasm with lots of helpful tips and local information. Very private with a lovely garden and amazing wildlife to watch. We would definitely return again!
Seascape Cottage
The cottage was very comfortable and well appointed, the location spectacular even with the cows who came to check us out regularly just to see how we were settling in. We also went on some beautiful walks both woodland and coastal. Highly recommended for that "get away from it all" feeling which, I am pleased to say remains with you on your return.
Fhaireag
An Airidh
Leachachan Barn
Beautiful place to stay. Well equipped. Totally relaxing with enough around to keep you occupied.
Cedar Cottage
Cedar Cottage is the most perfect getaway cottage. We were left a lovely welcome pack. The cottage is spotless and very cozy. We saw Red Squirrels in the garden and deer in the surrounding area. Great walking for the dog. We will definitely return.
Eilean Mor Cottage
We have had a wonderful time at Eilean Mor Cottage, Skinidin. The conservatory is really fine, we have sat there all the time. The WIFI is very good. The beds are a little bit to short for Dutch people (1.78, 2 x 1.87 m). The view is every day, every hour amazing. (Please, check/prune the trees). Skinidin is a perfect base to discover Isle of Skye. We have visited almost all the highlights.
Earth House
Wonderful as usual. Magiic. We've stayed ih Earth House many time and have never had problems.
Pityoulish Cottage
Lovely cottage in a very quiet location with stunning views over the Spey Valley. Very well presented. The fact the fridge didn't have an ice-box and there wasn't a microwave were the only downsides.
Elderbank
Fantastic cottage well equipped, beautiful spot and amazing views. The cottage supposed our expectations by a long way, would recommend a visit
Callakille
Burnside Cottage at Callakille is beautiful inside and out, a spectacular location and the perfect setting to really get away from it all and wind down. If anything, the pictures don't do it justice. The Applecross peninsula is truly stunning. We loved the coziness of the cottage and it's superbly equipped so we had everything we needed to make our stay a delight - even more so the totally unexpected welcome goodies including delicious home made marmalade, thank you! We felt instantly welcome and really didn't want to leave. We'll definitely be back!
Learag
Fabulous house built by the owners. Superbly comfortable every details thought out, lots of outside space and seating and you can move it around for the sunshine. Calming views lots of light and peaceful place to spend a week. Thank you highly recommend for 2 or 4 people - plenty of space. Would love to return in future!
Charleston
A super cottage with incredible views down across Loch Farraline and the surrounding countryside. Very spacious and well appointed and the benefit of a really large, securely fenced garden so the dogs could have a good run around. We saw a wide variety of wildlife and birds during our stay which was great. Would definitely recommend a stay here.
Timber House
White-Tail Croft
Near Portree a few miles down a single track road typical of Skye. Avoid the potholes and wandering sheep. Excellent accommodation. Feels remote but not that far from Portree. Owners very considerate with well equipped kitchen, staple supplies in stock and a few goodies which were accepted gratefully. Loved the views. It is really peaceful. Internally modern and comfortable with wood burner for the cooler days. Very much enjoyed our week's stay and will consider coming back, perhaps on route to one of the other Islands.
Cedar Cottage
The cottage was amazing and the location perfect, loved the wildlife and peace and quiet, can't wait to go back.
Cuaig Croft
Seascape Cottage
3rd time staying in this wonderful cottage. Seascape has everything you need for a relaxing break, with stunning views across the bay with lovely walks and great cycling direct from the door step. The cottage is very well equipped and spotlessly clean and the hosts are incredibly welcoming We have already booked our 4th visit
The Studio
Wonderful accommodation in a fabulous setting. Large space with lots of natural light and wildlife out of the window. Very well equipped for self catering. Thank you.
