Port Elgol Cottage

The cottage was in a beautiful location with spectacular views over the Cullins. It was very well equipped and spotlessly clean. There was a good amount of hot water and we enjoyed having a relaxing bath after a long day walking. We had a lovely week enjoying this peacefull and isolated area. You might want to consider replacing the mattress on the double bed as it was very uncomfortable . The interior of the cottage is clearly 20 years old and it needs an upgrade.

Thank you for your review and feedback. The owners are planning upgrades to the interior, including a new mattress and other furnishings.

Learag

We had a fabulous holiday at Learag. The property is stunning with so many thoughtful touches. The photographs on the site don't really do justice to the size and loveliness of this property. If you are looking for peace, quiet and lots of nature, this is the property to look at. We will be returning when we can.

The Coltsfoots

The Coltsfoots was a great place to stay. Comfortable and clean and plenty of space for the 4 of us. Both bedrooms are en- suite and plenty of hot water for showers. Lovely big kitchen which Was very well equipped. Surrounding area was fantastic. A short walk into town and it was nice to sit outside a pub and watch the boats go through the locks.

Pier Head

This was our second time at Pier Head and that should tell you enough! The cottage itself is in a fantastic location with great views over the loch, (This year we were lucky enough to see dolphins), It's a great size easily accommodating six adults. Everything is finished to a very high standard and is spotlessly clean. I cannot recommend this cottage highly enough.

Lovely cottage, fabulous scenery, but it is remote. The road in and out of the peninsula is only 11 miles but it will take you over half an hour due to the one track, winding nature of the road. The other way, via Applecross, is longer and spectacularly scary at times. Fun to drive for me, scary for my wife! Everything you need in a cottage is there apart from TV - they have no licence or connection to any TV, land based, Freeview or satellite. It is only linked up to a DVD player and some DVDs are there. There was no hot water when we arrived but this was fixed within two days and was no problem as they have a really good electric shower in the upstairs shower room. A nice big comfy bed in the master bedroom. Overall, a really nice place to stay

Udrigle House

Excellent traditional house lovingly restored. Owners were extremely helpful and friendly. Amazing features such as marriage box double bed, Rayburn and top floor sauna. Location and views from the property fantastic - looking north towards the summer isles and mountains of Assynt. Great local amenities - Laide post office, Ault Bea stores and Perfume Cafe and Poolewe market, cafe and shop. Would go there again in a heartbeat.

Lovely time at the Granary house had everything you would need for a comfortable relaxing stay. Great position within waking distance of good pubs/eateries. Welcoming hosts there if you need them but not intrusive. Beautiful walks nearby and Inverness a short drive away. Would definitely recommend

South Lodge

South Lodge is in the most remote and stunning location. Inside, it was faultless. One aspect of my stay that you may wish consider in your description of the property is this: I drive an Audi RS3 > a high performance 4 door sports saloon with Audi RS Sport Wheels and Tyres. On the last few hundred yards of my journey I had to drive down a very poor condition track. I could have walked quicker. If I had a 4 x 4, it would not have been a problem. The track could have damaged my car....but it didn't thank goodness. It would have ruined my holiday if it had!

What a lovely cottage in tranquil surroundings with magical views of the surrounding mountains. Only 30 minutes walk through the woods. Down a steep forest path to portree. The owners are marvellous with everything you need at hand. The open fire is so do wonderful. Wilderness cottages were also a pleasure to deal with and will certainly use them again in the future

Excellent cottage which was very spacious and comfortable and great surroundings. The cottage had everything you could except modern and very clean. The owner was very hospitable and I would say probably ranked one of the best cottages I have stayed in the Highlands without a doubt. I would most certainly love to return with the family and stay again. Thank you for an excellent stay and I was using Wilderness Cottages for the first time.

The location of this cottage is truly exceptional. Your front garden is literally the beach. The view in every direction is fantastic, looking across the loch to Skye or simply watching the weather passing over Applecross. The cottage is spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Plenty of walks on the doorstep to suit every ability and loads of opportunities to watch the wildlife. Local dining out is also fantastic. Only negative (or positive depending on your outlook) is the phone signal is weak/intermittent. Simply the best cottage we have ever stayed in.

Ardbeg is a lovely cottage in a stunning location. We could have looked at the view from the deck for hours. Everything had been thought of to ensure a lovely and relaxing holiday. We particularly appreciated the BBQ and outdoor seating. The availability of 2 separate indoor seating areas will be great for mixed age family groups. The cottage was exceptionally well maintained and spotless.

Upper Folds

Very comfortable and cosy cottage in beautiful surroundings. Extremely peaceful location with splendid wildlife and walks from the door. Within easy reach of the Cairngorms and the north coast, we would recommend staying here. A brief note about the track up to the property; in this (very wet) summer it was easily passable in my Vitara (a 'road' AWD), so something like that or a 4WD Qashqai etc would be fine. In the winter it might be a different story.

We loved our week at Stoer Lodge. This cottage has loads of character and history. There's some lovely touches - the old school chairs, the photos and many of the original features. The cottage is well equipped and was spotlessly clean. Stoer beach is easy to access, there's some fabulous walks and the assynt region definitely worth the long drive north.

North Lodge

The cottage is very nice, cosy and has everything you could need for your stay. It is in a lovely private setting and it's great to be able to walk to the Loch and around the grounds of the castle. When going to the private beach it may feel like you've gone wrong but keep going through the gate and follow it round, you have to pass through a farm. The track to the beach is very bumpy, if your car has good ground clearance though you should be fine. Had a lovely stay and saw red squirrels which is a first for us so really pleased.

The Barn, Corrimony

The Barn is spacious, comfortable, well equipped and clean. The Wifi is a little weak but who needs this when in the Highlands. There is lots to do and we made the most of every day. Lots of walks on the doorstep. I can recommend a walk to Corrimony Falls. It was our favourite waterfall although Plodda falls was impressive too. There is a friendly Spar in Cannich and I can recommend The Bog Cotton cafe also in Cannich. We had an amazing week and we loved every minute, the only trouble is that it went too quick.

This is the 2nd time we have visited the Log House based in Fort Augustus. It's in the centre of the Highlands and the perfect base to explore the west and east coast. The Log House is set in Beautiful Woodland with lots of great walks from your door and a 5 minute drive into Fort Augustus. The Bathroom is new, and the Cabin is very well equipped and full of Character. If you want peace, quiet and relaxation with fresh air in beautiful surroundings you will find it here. As usual Wilderness Cottages make everything easy to book and the Website is the easiest and most informative in the Holiday industry with great staff to help in the office.

Having Roseville as our base for exploring the Assynt area was perfect. The house has been designed with careful thought about what visitors want for a comfortable stay. Above and beyond facilities like multiple en-suite rooms, SkyQ and the Nespresso machine were greatly appreciated. The village shop had all the provisions we needed and the hotel, although only serving their guests at the time of our visit due to COVID, seemed to have a nice bar and restaurant. Roseville offered us comfort, high standards, a super location and a real home from home. Can't recommend highly enough.

Wonderful house in an amazing setting. We really enjoyed our stay here. A couple of things if you're thinkig of booking, the garden is fully enclosed except for the gate - if you have a small dog they can get under it, like ours did....... and the water pressure isn't great which can't be helped but the rainfall shower was more like a drizzle - to rinse your hair use the hand held hose. Local cafe and walks excellent. We spoke to one one of the fishermen at the pier and got fresh lobser and langoustine for dinner one night.

Hill Cottage

Hill Cottage is located in a stunning location on the very edge of the North Western Highlands overlooking the open sea loch of Laxford, with absolutely stunning views of the loch's islands and the Foinaven and Arkle mountains behind. The cottage has everything you need with the highlight being the rear conservatory which provides shelter from the elements and protection from midges in the summer while still offering the wonderful vistas below. Within very easy reach is Handa island, which offers a veritable feast of bird wildlife, from skuas to fulmars to puffins. Be aware though that the puffins leave by the end of July! The setting is perfect for those who wish to find solitude and really immerse themselves into the Scottish landscape. Dotted about the area are dozens of tiny lochs and rolling, windy roads. Down the hill, next to the old school, lies a great place to launch a small boat or kayak. Seals are dotted around the islands and are well worth the trip out if you can. With so many things to be positive about it's hard to mention the negatives, but we feel we must be honest to future guests. Firstly, we found the bed very uncomfortable and in need of replacing; and secondly, there is ongoing house construction just down the road from the cottage which is well underway. It was of course noisy at times and disturbing to us, considering we went there to get away from it all and were there for 2 weeks. Now this is not a fault of the cottage owner but rather Wilderness Cottages themselves who we felt might have been more transparent about it on their website or at the time of booking. I do hope that these changes can be made. Having said all that we felt the positives far outweighed the negatives and would recommend Hill Cottage to future guests.

Dear Mrs Gratton, Thank you for your review and feedback. To confirm Wilderness Cottages was not aware that a house was being built in the vicinity, however we have discussed this with the owner. Although at this stage there will be some building noise which we have no control over, having reviewed the position of the new property on a map, we do feel that the house is far enough away not to detract from the beautiful and scenic position that Hill Cottage is located in.
