About our reviews

In total we have received 5233 reviews from guests, of which 97% have ranked their stay as Very Good or Excellent.

A good way to judge whether a property will be suitable for your self catering holiday is to see what previous guests had to say about their visit. They often provide a deeper insight into features and locations, often highlighting things that we are not aware of. We believe this can only be of benefit to our future visitors.

We had a fabulous week in the gorgeous barn which is very comfortable warm and has great views We didn't know there was a piano which was a bonus The peace was what we went for and we got it - even a telescope for dark nights I dipped in the loch daily - best at high tide and you can use a paddle board if you bring one! We enjoyed all the books with local history and used the maps Ideal for a family as the twin beds are a mezzanine floor We had a couple of day trips to Skye which is amazing but a big day out We hope to return

Myself and my partner alongside my friend and her daughter rented The Artist's Cottage for 12 nights. The cottage was absolutely perfect for our needs, the large master bedroom with adjoining twin was like a suite, the lounge is very spacious with multiple seating areas, meaning we all had spaces to spread out when needed. The beds were very comfy. The cottage is in an excellent location, it feels remote being surrounded by the mountains but is within a short drive to Inverness. It is also easy to access the Highlands and all the activities on offer. We particularly enjoyed being able to go on walks right from the doorstep, whether that was a stroll in the community woodlands opposite or a hike into the surrounding mountains. Communication with the owner was excellent, they were very helpful with recommendations of places to eat and activities to do in the local area and answered any questions I had. I would highly recommend The Artist's Cottage whether you are looking to just get away from it all or you want an action packed holiday.

Perfect location, very quiet and yet accessible. Some very nice walks from the front door. The cottage is well equipped and provides everything you need and more. Killin is just around the corner with a Coop.

What a lovely place to stay. Fantastic ever changing view. Gairloch is a great base to explore the local lochs, beaches and mountains. Property is a very high standard and has everything you need and more. Would love to return.

We had a lovey stay at Strone. The spotless cottage is really well located and very comfortable. It has a very well equipped kitchen and everything else we needed (including a handy airing cupboard for drying off wet boots). We also appreciated the welcome package of milk and cake and wine!). We did a lot of walking around Glen Affric and Glen Cannich and south of Loch Ness. Supermarket shopping is available in nearby Drumnadrochit and very good fish and chips in Fort Augustus after a nice walk along the canal and lochs. We'd definitely recommend it and would come again.

LEARAG is amazing, with fabulous scenery. Beautiful decked area with seating to sit in the sun, after returning from day trips. Everything about the house was perfect. Beautiful location on the Black Isle, with most lovely villages. Definitely hope to return soon!

Excellent house for a quiet retreat on Skye. Well equipped and cosy on the wildest of summer days with wonderful views of the Cullins on occasion!

We love Earth House! Second visit - and won't be the last - quirky property with everything you need and Donald near by to answer any queries. It is in an ideal location on the shore with spectacular views and wildlife from the garden. Plenty of walks/ hikes and beaches nearby to explore. Great for dogs!

We stayed a week in Loch Cottage. It was a wonderful time: the place is very special, a lonely house located directly at a lake. There is no civilisation around, no other houses, just nature - just wonderful.
