"A lovely little, well maintained cabin."
Perfect for me, my wife and our puppy Loki. Friendly owner who made sure we had everything we needed.
We loved our stay here with some lovely sunsets and plenty of places to visit or have a bite to eat nearby.
So glad you enjoyed your stay, you had some lovely sunsets and we will look forward to seeing you both next year.... perhaps Ben Wyvis will be kinder to you next time!!

The view is amazing and ever-changing, according to the weather! It is straightforward to drive their and to access places in and around Inverness. We'd be happy to return for another stay. Highly recommended.
Thanks so much for your lovely review, we would love to welcome you back anytime!

"Such a lovely property."
It's almost like staying in a 5 star hotel suite. Everything was very clean. We stayed for 12 nights and as a keen cook I did struggle a bit with the portable hob and it would have been helpful to have had a few more dishes for the microwave and a full size colander. It was nothing major, and I think visitors tend to stay for shorter periods. The views were amazing and we were so lucky with the weather whilst we were there. The cabin was very warm and cosy and we had no need to use the heating. The owners were very nice and friendly. We had the best holiday here and would highly recommend and would definitely stay again if we were visiting again.
Hi Louise, thank you for your kind words - you were so lucky with the weather, I've never seen it stay so gorgeous for so long! We would love to see you if you were up this way again, but be sure to let me know so I can accommodate some extra kitchen utensils

"As regular users of Sykes Cottages we did anticipate we had made a good booking."
. On driving down the final turning to the cabin we instantly knew we had made a special booking. The property and its location and interior finishings are 10 out of 10. We stayed for the week had the Rabbie Tours Lock Ness experience, Dolphin Cruise and Distillery Visit. All well worth it and close by. In addition my husband did appreciate the use of the Sky Glass tv especially during a busy European football week !!.In conclusion we throughly recommend core na bye as being a the most special place to get the Highland Experience.
Thank you Debra,
We aim to please, and of course football is football so it is of upmost importance to have the correct viewing facilities!!!
Glad you had a great time and enjoyed the cabin and views

"This is a wonderful place to have a base whether you are a couple or single traveller."
Private but at the same time a short drive into Inverness. The views are stunning. This is a luxury, comfortable cabin. The owners have gone to great detail to ensure you have everything for a wonderful stay.
The only slight minus ( and it is slight) is due to low water pressure the shower isn’t very powerful.
If you want peace and quiet with wonderful views, this place is for you.
Thank you for your kind review Paul and we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay. You are quite right, the water pressure is a shame, which is something we have tried hard to rectify. However given the circumstances it is the best we are able to do, but it's hot and plentiful

"Lovely property, very cosy and well placed for exploring the area."
The woodland walk off the garden is equally perfect for a short or long walk if you don't want to go further afield for an adventure. Felt happy to contact the owner if needed (but didn't need to). Everything as described.
Thank you Fiona

"Iona was lovely and was in touch with us just before our departure to say that we didn’t have to bring a few things as provided and we could have got into cabin earlier if we had wanted too which was over and above what she needed to do ."
There was a fantastic welcome pack which was again above and beyond anything I have seen before and she made sure we celebrated our honeymoon in style . Cabin immaculate and had everything you needed for our stay so quiet and yet so close to all amenities. Perfect place perfect views perfect hosts . Would highly recommend.
Thank you Carol for your lovely review. Delighted you both enjoyed your stay. Hope to see you again soon,
