• "Wonderful place to stay."

  Lovely and clean and very well equipped. The owner greeted us on arrival and showed us how to use the hot tub. We didn’t see them again which suited us perfectly as it felt very private. We knew they were only next door and were very happy for us to make contact if we needed anything. We don’t like to be fussed when on holiday, so for us this was great. Prosecco and milk on arrival was really thoughtful as were the robes and slippers. Great location for exploring and there’s a co-op 10 minute walk away and a esso garage even closer. Lovely peaceful location. We didn’t use the barbecue hut but it looked fab. The sauna was also great! Highly recommended place to stay.

• "Excellent holiday house, we knew straight away it was ideal for our stay."

  The house embraced you in comfort in a pleasant setting. Within Muir of Ord it was convenient for petrol, Coop and bakers. Good access to Black Isle and close to Beauly. Even the weather cooperated. A delightful stay rebooked already.

• "Wow, an amazing property, with everything you need for a brilliant self catering stay."

  Ken was present on our arrival, and clearly explained the instructions of the hot tub, sauna and bbq hut. The house was very spacious, and extremely clean with quality furniture making it the most comfortable place we have ever stayed in. The downstairs shower was awesome. Hot tub and sauna were used daily, providing much needed relaxation after a busy day. The outside area was very private and well maintained. We made use of the bbq hut a couple of afternoons and enjoyed dining outside, We have stayed in quite a few holiday homes, and Little Chestnut is now our number 1. Thank you Ken and Theresa for a wonderful stay, and we will be back at some point. Graeme and Paula

  Ken & Theresa are very welcoming and were in contact with us through out our holiday. Theresa knocked the door to let us know that the Northern lights were out. Which was a lovely thing to see and tick of our bucket list. It was lovely coming back to the sauna & hot tub after a cold day out. And we are already looking forward to returning for our next visit.

  The Hot tub so lovely to relax in & a comfortable bed to sleep in at end of day’s sightseeing. Cleanliness second to none!!! On arrival we were greeted by Ken, a very warm friendly man, unfortunately we didn’t meet Theresa , but did communicate before our holiday, which was very helpful & informative, recommended few places to see & as everything went smoothly in the house we didn’t need to bother them. We were left a lovely welcome pack which was appreciated. The garden was beautiful, pity it wasn’t summertime as I’m sure it’ll be a lovely garden to relax in! Our first visit to Scotland, absolutely stunningly beautiful country with gorgeous scenery, very friendly people,loved it , thinking of visiting ? then I’d highly suggest you book ‘little chestnut’ you won’t be disappointed.

  If you ever have the opportunity to reside in this location, you will undoubtedly find it to be exceptional. This establishment offers an array of amenities that exceed one's expectations—ample space, a cosy atmosphere, and every need meticulously addressed. The sole regret we experienced was having to bid farewell.

  In fact is one of the best properties we have stayed in. It was quiet, private and equipped with everything we needed for our stay. It was also immaculately clean which has not always been the case with a couple of previous properties we have stayed in. The added extras of the hot tub and sauna were very much enjoyed especially by our teenage son. The photos on Sykes do not do this place justice. We would definitely recommend and we hope to return very soon. It is a great base for exploring the Highlands. We have had a fabulous holiday. Thank you to Theresa & Ken for such a fabulous place.

  Anyone who appreciates Quality, Style, and Good Planning need look no further than this property. The owners, Theresa, Ken, and daughter Louise are discreetly on hand next door if required, and yet you have total privacy. A lot of thought has gone into the presentation of the property and it shows throughout. In addition to a very comfortable home for your stay the location is excellent for day trips out should you wish, with easy access to east and west coasts, and a little further gets you to the top of the British mainland. Thanks very much to our hosts. Ann & David Wallwork

  When entering the property it's clear that attention to detail and cleanliness is extremely important to the owners and this reflects through out the property. Everything you need is available including towels and bedding. There are also additional towels, robes and slippers available for use within the hot tub/ sauna which is a fantastic addition to the property as well as a bbq house. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay within Little Chessnut and wouldn't hesitate to book again.

• "The accommodation was lovely, and the additional facilities like the hot tub, sauna and BBQ hut were amazing."

  The hosts were lovely and had left some really nice touches for us. However, we found the beds very uncomfortable- this could just be personal preference but they are very soft and we struggled to sleep. The sofas had very low backs which was quite uncomfortable too. Because of this, we could not relax comfortably on our holiday but if they changed the sofas and mattresses this would've been the best accommodation we've ever stayed in.

  We received a warm welcome from Teressa plus a chilled bottle of Prosecco. Teressa also loaned us a map and gave us some travel tips too. The house had everything you could need for a perfect break. There is plenty of room for six people and even children's cutlery. There is lots of room outside too and even undercover parking for one car. All the washing and drying facilities you need. It was so peaceful, quiet and secluded. This is the perfect holiday home and a great base for exploring Scotland. I highly recommend the Little Chestnut.

  It’s a great place to stay at and the area caters for a large variety of reasons why you should consider booking it. The Family have done an awesome job in creating the right environment with everything that’s included/ needed. It wants for nothing (hot tube/ sauna & BBQ) and is within easy walking reach of the Town and other amenities. Coming back to reality, the prices for 2022 are a big difference compared to 2021 though. SButler

• "More than expected this cottage was brilliant with everything that we needed and much more The leisure suite was lovely so much thought has been put into this."

  Little Chestnut is immaculate and spacious. Everything is quality , even the crockery , pots and pans etc was of a really high standard. Muir of Ord is a great base for exploring the highlands and my husband enjoyed the nearby golf course and we all had a great time on a boat trip on Loch Ness .We went to book for next year but we just can’t afford the jump in price. Which is such a shame but understandable with the current situation .This year we paid £838.00 including booking fee, but the same week next year it will be £1369.00 which is just to much of a jump for us. We loved this place and are sad we wont be able to return because of how the price has jumped for all weeks. Otherwise we would have no hesitation in booking this property again

  There simply isn't anything else to say about the place. If there is a down side(and this is purely a personal opinion) it's not remote enough there is nowhere to go for walks as your located in the village centre, and with exception of the thousands of geese flying overhead there is no wildlife full stop didn't even see a bird in the garden. If they were located a little more remotely I'd have booked for next October already. This apart the "little chestnut" is a little gem and to those of you who just want to relax get yourself booked in before it's to late you won't be disappointed 10/10 easily
