Shore Cottage

Shore Cottage is the most amazing place, peaceful, beautiful cosy. We love spending time on the beach with our dog. We both have very busy lives and enjoy getting away from phones, and the Internet to completely unwind and relax. What a wonderful find. We have stayed here twice and can't wait to return.

Plodda Falls Lodge

We had a great second visit to this wonderful place. Lots of walks, to old haunts, as well as new ones. Still so much more to explore when we return next year. We want to add our thanks to those already expressed by so many visitors, to Jenny - she provides a friendly presence with lots of advice on how to get the very best experience of the Lodge and its glorious surroundings.

Woodpecker Pad

North Lodge

Excellent location, easy to reach nearby walks and beaches. Quiet and relaxing and all required amenities supplied. Cozy and comfortable cottage.

Tor Fionn

Charleston

Stunning location, could never tire of the view. House lovely and clean with everything you needed for a great holiday, large enclosed garden which the dogs loved. Basket of fruit a nice touch Thanks for sharing your lovely home with us.

Log House

Our 6th visit, and once again we were never disappointed, even the weather was great this year, not that that ever dampens the spirit, the log house as usual was well presented and has everything you will need, it's a great base for exploring the west and north, visits to Glen Affric, Walks through the forest never disappoints, this year we finally got a glimpse of the Pine Martin which visited the bird table at the cabin, if you like wild life the table will not disappoint as a good stock will bring all the birds, red squirrels and finally the martins the free entertainment is priceless, we will are already booked to return.

Cedar Cottage

We had a lovely week in Cedar cottage. Even though it seems you are in the middle of nowhere it only takes a few minutes to get to Forres, where you can shop. The parks in Forres are beautiful. The cottage is great. Much bigger than it looks and a great garden for dogs. Sit at the patio and see the birds feeding up close and red squirrels too. Loads of walks on your doorstep.

Log House

Another lovely week spent in the Log House, just love this place so much, well equipped and in such a perfect spot. The runs/walks up into the surrounding forest are just beautiful and the 5km loop right outside the front door is perfect for an early morning run to start the day. Great heating (not that we needed it this visit), fab log burner for the colder months and a really good shower (very important I think!) The only issue we had was the bats, every other stay they have been no problem, but this time they seem to have moved up to the head of the bed end of the bedroom and were so noisy that they kept me awake or woke me up most nights, not sure if its possible to relocate them.

Marnie's Croft

Stable Cottage

Stable cottage is tucked away behind Lochnaw castle in woodland abundant with wildlife. The walks and beaches are unspoilt and stunning. The local attractions like Portpatrick and Logan botanical gardens are well worth visiting. The locals are incredibly friendly and there is a whole variety of restaurants and eateries to tickle your tastebuds. The cottage was comfortable and reasonably well equipped. Its location is simply perfect for a wilderness holiday.

Seabank Cottage

A smashing wee cottage, ideally located for visiting both Wester Ross & Isle of Skye. Lochcarron is a pleasant village with adequate number of shops and restaurants. A couple of tweaks to the cottage would be to install 'blackout' curtains in the upstairs bedroom and along with an updated TV & TV package would enhance the stay.

The Coltsfoots

Absolutely love the Coltsfoot. A wonderful location within walking distance to the centre of Fort Augustus. The log cabin is well set out with everything you need to make the stay comfortable. Scrupulously clean and nothing is too much trouble for the owners. Would recommend the Coltsfoots.

Port Elgol Cottage

We spent a lovely week in Port Elgol Cottage. The cottage is well equipped, very clean and comfortable. In a perfect quiet location it was so relaxing listening to the waves and watching the comings and goings on the water. We can highly recommend this property.

South Lodge

A lovely get away from it all cottage. Nice shower and well equipped kitchen. Really cosy, peaceful and beautiful scenic views. It's away from everything so self catering is a must unless you are willing to travel. Some nice walks and not too far from the beach. We loved it. Some lovely wildlife around. Great for the dog.

Port Elgol Cottage

We spent a really lovely week in Port Elgol Cottage. The cottage is well equipped and is very clean and comfortable. In a perfect quiet location. It was so relaxing.

Seal Skerry Lodge

We had an amazing stay at Seal Skerry Lodge in Skye. The booking process with Wilderness Cottages was easy and staff were super helpful. The accommodation and location were exactly as described on the website. We will definitely be booking again and are looking forward to next year's brochure arriving!

Log Ness

What can I say that hasn't already been said before. This cabin is absolutely amazing with everything you could possibly want during your stay. There were even doggy poop bags and dog bowls. Seating areas all around the cabin made use of all the space needed for outdoor dining, evening drinks and an area with a dart board to keep the kids amused. We didn't really need a TV as the views over Loch Ness were to die for and we didn't want to waste a second of our time there. The younger members of our party enjoyed the kayaking in the loch and had brought their own kayak and also their bicycles which they enjoyed riding on the many trails in the area. Not too far from Fort Augustus or Aviemore where we visited Loch Morlich with its beach area and beach cafe. I could go on and on but I will end here with an assurance that we thoroughly enjoyed our week here and none of us wanted to leave (even our 2 retrievers Bailey and Willow). The cabin is absolutely wonderful and I cannot praise the housekeeper enough as the cabin was spotless. Our thanks to the owners for letting us rent their beautiful cabin!,

Fhaireag

The Coltsfoots

This summer house, shipped in from Sweden on an Articulated lorry, is truly the "best of"! Located in a quiet clearing, completely private and yet 15mins walk from the pubs and restaurants of Fort Augusta. The charming owners live close by and have thought of everything! The kitchen is better equipped than ours - no kidding! The whole place is cleaned to Swiss levels of scrupulous cleanliness, it feels like you are the first people ever to stay there, no wonder they get repeat visitors.

Don Cottage

Braehead Steading

A fantastic holiday house, set up really well for 2 families sharing, well equipped kitchen, plenty outdoor space/seating, will definately be visiting again.

Pityoulish Cottage

Lovely cottage, fully modernised but retains character. The views from the kitchen and dining area, out over the River Spey, are wonderful. Perfect location, secluded but within easy reach of Aviemore. We are very keen to return.

Pier Head

Blessed by beautiful weather, it was so nice being back in Shieldaig. Swimming from the front door, climbing in the Torridon mountains, and cycling up and over the Bealach pass, It was just like doing our very own Celtman (but without the 3am start).!! Pie Head is such a comfortable and well kept house that it is a real pleasure to spend time relaxing with the family (as opposed to competing) there. This being our third visit I'm pretty sure we'll be coming back.

Ardbeg

Best holiday cottage we've ever rented in 26yrs. Fabulous uninterrupted loch views and generous living space . Well appointed furniture and fittings . Not for the fragile though as it's a hugely steep climb up to the house from the village . Certainly good for fitness levels !

Littlepark Cottage

Taigh Druim

Katie's Cottage

Katie's Cottage is has benefited from a high-end and thoughtful architectural restoration. The flooring, stairs and eco heating are particularly thoughtful. well located for a remote holiday, what a fabulous area of Skye, new to us, but fabuous for wildflife

Aros Beag

Don Cottage

Beech Lodge

Beach Lodge

This is our second visit to Beach Lodge, a little piece of paradise. The house is spacious but cozy. Three living areas and just enough tech to keep in touch with the rest of the world if you have to; Freesat TV, and basic broadband with wi-fi over much of the house. Six plus a dog had really relaxing stay, amazing walks down the beach towards Killantringan or the opposite direction up to where it's gets pretty rocky and the sand runs out. Back to the house for meals, sitting out the back cooking up a barbeque or in the sun room watching the kestrels above the hillside and the cows come down to the front meadow for a bit of evening grazing. Being tucked down a rough track keeps most day trippers at bay. Been up and down here in a fully loaded car with no issue so don't let the road put you off. Portpatrick is just 15 minutes away with some good pubs and restaurants. Stranraer about 25 minutes away with a good choice of shops and supermarkets. We just stocked up for the week and enjoyed the seclusion. Barely saw another person all week. The directions are a bit misleading, the postcode is DG9 0RR; a what3words location is ///stands.enclosing.wonderfully.

Beech Lodge

Seascape Cottage

This is simply one of the best cottages imaginable...beautifully clean and well equipped, with the most stunning views across the Irish Sea, and literally a couple of minutes' walk to quiet beaches and rock pools. The host is friendly and helpful and helped make our stay really special. Totally intend to pay further visits to this beautiful and relaxing cottage.

The Challey at Heathcote

Seabank Cottage

Smashing wee cottage, ideally located for visiting west coast & Skye. A couple of tweaks would further improve, namely, update TV / Program provider & blackout curtains in bedroom. Other than that an enjoyable stay.

Fhaireag

Seal Skerry Lodge

Cottage was all that we hoped for. Very clean and well equipped. Telescope was a well used bonus. Perfect balance of getting away with a good selection of local amenities close at hand (cafe, village shop and the Chidakasha veg restaurant all within a few miles). The views over Loch Pooltiel from the house make the visit - on our stay we daily watched seals bathe on the skerry, one day a pod of dolphins visited the loch and otters were also spotted. The walk around the headland to the lighthouse is a good hike and there are variety of other walks in the area. Bird life also exceptional. Hoping to return soon.

Kincardine Cottage

We had a wonderful stay at Kincardine Cottage, it really does feel in the middle of nowhere with lots of wildlife to see, the deer even came into the garden so we didn't have to look very hard! There are a number of towns including Aviemore not too far away so you have all of the things you need and a lovely loch 1 mile away for gentle swimming.

Taffs Barn

Highly recommend Taff's Barn. Excellent location, beautiful views from the patio and balcony - really enjoyed seeing the Red Kites everyday, and very well equipped. Pat was very helpful and the scones, jam, and clotted cream on arrival were lovely. Two of our party have already booked to stay again!

The Orchids

The Orchids is an exceptional property in every way. It's in a stunning location with a constantly changing view across Loch Dunvegan, and is very peaceful. Along with the local rabbits, we had visits from some of the more adventurous sheep and lambs, recognising individuals by the end of the week. Seals swam in the loch in front of us most days and we were thrilled to see dolphins feeding on the incoming tide on a number of occasions - one evening we watched them for a constant three hours or so! We were stunned at how well equipped the kitchen was; there wasn't a single thing that had been overlooked. The living room was comfortable but, to be honest, it stayed largely unused throughout our stay, as the view from the dining room was far more captivating than the TV! We made use of some of the large selection of games and, had the weather not been so unexpectedly good, would probably have done some of the jigsaws too (this was a lovely touch). We were also pleased at the eco-friendliness of the property, due to the solar panels and the ground source pump heating system. The main upstairs bedroom was the only one we used and the bed was extremely comfortable. The ensuite shower was (to quote my husband) the best shower in the world. I honestly can't recommend the Orchids highly enough. It's perfect in every way and I'd love to visit again one day.

Gate House

Timber House

Toberaie

Absolutely fabulous cottage with the most tremendous views. Excellent customer service. Will most definitely be back again and again.

The Granary

House was perfect for our family of four. Garden with bbq and fire pit (and red squirrels) was amazing. Family/owners beside us couldn't have been more friendly and helpful.

Tor Fionn

Matheson's Croft House

An absolutely wonderful cottage, cute, romantic, and well-decorated with a good shower and comfy beds. The garden is full of wildlife, and has the most astounding view over Loch Alsh- you can see Eileen Donan Castle lit up at night, and watch terns fishing in the day. The scenery and local walks are glorious. Ten out of ten all round.

Ceol na Mara

The cottage at Loch Kishorn was great - very well-equipped, clean and comfortable. The views over the loch from the living room and patio garden were truly outstanding.

Pier Head

Beautiful location with a very well equipped, comfortable and well kept house. This was a second visit and we will book again if we go back to the sheildaig area.

Easter Knocklea Cottage

Easter Knocklea was not only a wonderful property to hunker down in but also a great springboard in which to explore the Cairngorm and Moray. The property is elevated with views out and no other house can be seen within the vista in front of you. A really comfortable, well-considered house with many rooms for guests to spread out and find areas either to be quiet in or come together. Spotless, considered and hidden away from the hubbub; book it if you can.
