Upper Folds
This was a jewel in Scotlands crown. We wanted a complete getaway and this is what we got. A beautiful house in a beautiful spot with everything we needed.
Cattle Shed
Stunning! So quite and peaceful and the scenery is fabulous. Would have loved a dressing table with mirror but hey you can't have everything! The welcome basket was superb- loves the gin and tonic!

Seascape Cottage
What shall we say? We had an unimaginably great time in this really beautifully located, tastefully furnished and carefully cleaned cottage. Its secluded location and unique sea view are priceless! The landlords are incredibly nice and helpful. They even organised us a bike and a suitable lock so that we could explore the area without a car. All in all a perfect holiday!

Pipers Lodge
Poulary Cottage
Lovely location. If you are someone who relies on internet, it is very intermittent, but then this is the place to get away from it all.
Pine Lodge
Charleston
This cottage is amazing. It is immaculate, well stocked with amazing views. It is central to a lot of areas of interest. We have spent years travelling around Scotland and this cottage is by far the best. The dogs loved the garden..it was very safe. If you want seclusion and no noise then visit Charleston. We will definitely be booking again next year.

Beach Lodge
Fantastic location, have been many times before. Feel I must mention a couple of things ie. bin situation don't like the idea of taking bags of rubbish up to the bins in my car. No where to store bin bags outside, didn't want to leave outside at night because wildlife ripping the bags.Drive very bad does not encourage you to take bags up making a special journey and when you have four people and a dog in the car don't want smelly bags of rubbish on the seats. When we used to come years ago there was a bin outside the property which was emptied by the owner on change over day. Drive way very bad also cows with calf's in paddock a bit dodgy walking through to the beach with a dog, on a lead I might add cows charged a couple of times and paddock smelly and flies due to cow muck.
Balmachree
Charleston
What a fantastic cottage in beautiful surroundings. A lot of thought has been put in to this cottage by the owners and I can honestly say it is one of the best equipped cottages that I have ever stayed in and that's been quite a few. The little beauty boxes in each bathroom are great, stocked with everything from toothpaste, shampoo and sanitary wear and the welcome gifts were very generous and much appreciated. The cottage is in a beautiful setting with fantastic views and we were lucky enough to see the deer trotting across the surrounding fields, red kites swooping around the garden and a large gathering of mistle thrushes in the garden. Needless to say we will be back again.
Seabank Cottage
The cottage was very comfortable and had everything you could want. The view from the kitchen window was wonderful no matter the weather. The owners had thought of everything to make us feel welcome. The tray with a tea bag, sugar and shortbread and milk in the fridge waiting for us on arrival was so unexpected and much appreciated.
Pooltiel House
Great house in a fantastic location. Everything worked and was simple to operate.

The Granary
Have just spent a super week at the beautiful little cottage in Drumnadrochit. The Granary is well situated for local amenities, very peaceful & has everything one needs. We found a fabulous restaurant - The Loch Ness Inn - we ate there most evenings. I would definitely recommend The Granary.
The Old Meeting House
Upper Folds
WOW, a very special property!!! A very simple floor plan very comfortably built. The location is spectacular and remote. We could not see a lightbulb to the horizon in any direction. One evening was cloudless and the stars were incredible. We saw the Milky Way emerge at sunset and were surprised by the North Star overhead. Luxurious, comfortable, warm. Perfect for a disconnection from your smartphone, the internet and the world.
South Lodge
South Lodge had everything we needed for a very relaxing week. The underfloor heating in the bathroom was a real treat! Location is fantastic and our dogs enjoyed the freedom while we explored the beaches close by. Would love to return!
Pooltiel House
Superb house in a stunning location. Fantastic views. Modern house, fully equipped and very spacious.
South Lodge
Had a wonderful stay in a lovely cottage in an outstanding location . Little touches, like beautiful flowers and Scottish shortbread on arrival as a welcome, and I love the heated floor in the bathroom! Will definitely be back.
Cedar Cottage
Well maintained cottage and garden in the most beautiful surroundings. Great location for exploring the immediate area as well as Inverness and Elgin. We had a fantastic time taking in the scenery (woodland and beach) and wildlife. Dog friendly which is great.
Log House
Wonderful log cabin set in the forest. Total relaxation with beautiful walks and stunning scenery. Highly recommended, if you book this you will not be disappointed. 5 star ( I'm sure Father Christmas lived here at some time ) ????????????
Balachladdich
We enjoyed our recent stay in Balachladdich with family. The beds were so comfy, everything was spotless. A safety gate.at the bottom of the stairs would have been usefu!, We had a very active 2 year old with us who can't keep still and wanted to play on the stairs. When you get to the top there are a few steps to each bedroom and she loved it. On returning home she got up on the next day to ask where the palace had gone.
Loch Cottage
The cottage is in a perfect location and was a wonderful place to stay. We were very happy to make use of the wood-burning stove on a couple of rainy evenings so it was kind of you to leave us kindling and some logs. Everything was very comfortable and we coped easily with the water.
Lus na Gaoithe
Kincardine Cottage
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, wonderful location - everything a wilderness cottage should be. We were a bit disconcerted at having a bath in brown water. !!!!!! It would be really helpful if there was a shower as with 4 adults sharing a house without one is rather awkward

Dear Mr Spencer Thank you for your review - so glad you enjoyed your stay. Unfortunately, with a private water supply, the water can be somewhat discoloured - especially in the Cairngorms. We will pass on your recommendation regarding the shower to the owners.
Whitestone
Plodda Falls Lodge
Plodda Falls Lodge is a little slice of heaven. Frozen in time and full of wonder. The surrounding forest is straight out of a Tolkien novel, wild, mysterious and full of wildlife. You can fill your days exploring the vast and ancient forest, forage for wild blueberries and raspberries, wander up the track and visit the breathtaking Plodda Falls and, weather permitting, take a dip in the cool fresh water. The night time brings it's own beauty, skies full of stars and bats skillfully soaring through the skies. And a peaceful quiet decends over the highlands. Jenny (and Kevin) are very welcoming, Jenny made a delicious cake for our arrival which was greatly appreciated along with the lovely fresh lettuce and eggs she gifted us. Also as a parting gift we received a delicious bottle of Plodda Falls elderberry cordial. Overall a very relaxing and peaceful week. Sad to leave such a wonderful place and we will definitely return. I leave a little piece of my heart at Plodda.
Pipers Lodge
Log House
We had another great week at the Log House but, be warned, there are a lot of bats roosting in the roof space. This didn't bother us previously and may indeed be a strong appeal to many people (if you like bats) but if you're not keen on bats do be aware. They were very noisy in the main bedroom and we did have one find it's way into the kitchen one night. If you like bats though it really is a super cabin.
White-Tail Croft
White Tail Croft is a beautiful house where the owners have thought of everything. The sauna is great after a hike, coffee machine, comfy beds, log burner, lovely soaps etc etc. It's only a 15-20 drive from Portree however it's wonderfully located with fantastic views. It would be a fab place for a honeymoon, it was lovely and warm when we arrived and spotless, we loved it
Cuilfail
Sixgeary
A fabulous cottage in a wonderful location . Our favourite holiday home in Skye. A must do .
Old Smiddy
Kincardine Cottage
Excellent house and garden. Perfect location in that there are many activities in the area but the house is very much far from the madding crowd. It would be quite easy to park the car for a week and cycle everywhere you needed to go.
Cala
A perfect retreat from a busy life. Cala is a very individual property in a beautiful spot with stunning views of the Scottish Highlands and sits just above Loch Nedd. We found the space so relaxing with plenty of space, large windows and a well equipped kitchen. The well stocked local store at Drumbeg not only offered food and drink for our weeks stay but were welcoming and offered us local knowledge which complemented the information at the house. We enjoyed mountain and coastal walks, a host of wildlife and cosy afternoons at home.
Eilean Mor Cottage
Lovely property, excellent location. Well appointed, warm, cosy, clean and airy. Great conservatory with lovely views. It might be a bit tight for 4 adults but for the two of us it was perfect
Heatherbank
Udrigle House
The house was lovely and the owner was very helpful. The views from the garden were beautiful and we were able to watch dolphins and seals (with some of the seals coming out onto the rocks beside the house). The kitchen was very spacious and having the Rayburn for the cooking was great. All three bedrooms were quite unique in their own way, with the two larger ones restored with as much of the original materials as possible. The whole house was very clean, well equipped and we all enjoyed our stay and would thoroughly recommend staying here.
Tigh-na-Craobh (The Tree House)
Lovely house in a central location for exploring Skye.

Pipers Lodge
White-Tail Croft
What a truly amazing cottage and location, everything you need to relax and enjoy the stunning views surrounding the croft. Location is perfect to explore all that Skye has to offer. Will definitely be back.
Arrivain Cottage
Wonderful cottage. We didn't want to leave. Cottage is peaceful, with fabulous views of the surrounding landscape and great road links to many places of interest. The cottage is a real gem, particularly loved the rainforest shower, heated flooring and the wood burner too. There is also an excellent surprise with this cottage, something we didn't expect but I wont spoil it for you???? Excellent hosts Jacqui and Jeff who gave us insider tips about the surrounding area and trips out. We had the most amazing holiday, could not fault the cottage at all. Arrivain Cottage is fabulous! We can't wait to return.
