Inverewe - House Apartment

Wonderful place to stay!

We loved everything about this beautiful apartment. Great to be met by Jackie. Excellent welcome tray. Beautifully, tastefully furnished. Spotlessly clean. The views!! The gardens!! An otter! Seals. Pine Martens!!! All the National Trust staff were lovely. We had an amazing, peaceful week. Only left the property/gardens once. Only hope we can go back again.

Many thanks to Jacqui and Doug of the National Trust of Scotland for their warm welcome to Inverewe House.

The house was light, warm, comfortable, spacious, well equipped and very relaxing but the star of the stay was the garden...Osgood Mackenzie's vision realised. Very beautiful whatever time of year you visit.

It was a fabulous place to stay.

National Trust made us very welcome.The apartment was beautiful and in a stunning location.Boat trip along the coast was lovely.Thank you to everyone,we had a great stay!

We were greeted by Jacquie and made to feel most welcome, she showed us around and was extremely helpful.

Lovely welcome pack and beautiful flowers to greet us. Unfortunately the main problem for us was the total lack of comfortable seating in the lounge. There are 2 sofas one is only suitable for 1 person and the other was totally unsuitable for anybody. The most comfortable place to sit was on the bed. This definitely impacted on our stay. We did make this booking a year in advance and if we had seen the more recent reviews regarding seating we definitely would not have booked. It's a great shame as it is the most beautiful setting and gardens with wonderful staff.

Inverewe House is lovely to stay in, the position is fantastic being amidst the wonderful gardens.

It was very comfortable and well stocked, except could do with a bigger milk jug, and also needs some more water glasses.Of course, the parking is a little inconvenient, especially when the weather is bad, but we understand the reasons... We did not like the big couch/sofa in the sitting room, as felt it was out of place and uncomfortable. Jacqui was lovely to deal with prior to and on arrival, and we had no need to disturb her again except to say goodbye. It was a lovely stay in our most special of places, as a family we have a long association with Poolewe and the area. Thank you Sykes, you were very efficient to deal with. The only disappointment was the weather, and nobody can do anything about that !!!!!!!

This was really excellent.

Though I will be a bit biased, as I was a child in Poolewe in the sixties and early seventies, and this was a home return visit, I can confirm that Inverewe Garden and apartment are really special, as compared to anywhere I've been connected to worldwide. There is a unique peace in the place. My group of six family members agreed that the venue is well managed and cared for; thank you Jacqueline and team for achieving this and helping to preserve some of the best interests of the locale. I'm fortunate to be resident not too far away and look forward to the next visit.

The only fault we had is there are no comfortable seats to sit on in the lounge.

The main settee is very low and makes it very hard to get off if you are not a spring chicken. The other settee is not really a 2 person couch and the leather armchair is very slippy and kept sliding out of it. Had to go the bed to sit comfortably. Other than that I cannot fault the apartment. All the staff were more than helpful for the duration of our stay.

Another great holiday in the beautiful and cosy Inverewe House Apartment, enjoying the beauty of the gardens and nearby sights, beaches and cafes.

The house was perfect for our three generation family holiday. We hope to return again soon!

A beautiful property in a wonderful location.

All the peace and tranquility you could wish for. My wife and I chose well for our anniversary. Only negatives were the wi-fi was not compatible with Sky Go and the water for the morning showers did not remain hot enough for long enough.

Great property all round!

Really well stocked, interesting & historical apartment. Jacqui, who met us, gave us a really nice welcome and fully briefed us on all aspects of the property. She had also arranged fresh flowers, some provisions (including sample of local whisky & gin!). Excellent location and being in the Inverewe Scottish National Trust property and gardens, we had 24hr access to the beautiful large gardens and woodland on the shores of Loch Ewe. We had these to ourselves from 5pm ish to 10am each day - great for early morning and after dinner walks. Beautiful area - It also helped to have amazing unseasonal sunny and warm weather

We really enjoyed our stay in the Inverewe apartment, which is a beautiful place.

The place was spotlessly clean throughout and Jackie was very welcoming. Also nice to have the starter pack of food and drink that was much appreciated after a long drive. Having access to the gardens was great and they're as gorgeous and interesting as ever. Absolutely nothing to complain about and we'll definitely be back at some point.

Almost perfect!

The apartment is a wonderful place to spend a holiday. It is spacious, clean, comfortable and very well equipped. The little extras also helped make life a little easier. The ‘welcome basket’ containing bread and milk is a nice touch, as are the fresh flowers and fruit bowl. It is certainly a peaceful place. The freedom of being able to roam around the gardens in the evening is one of the things that we enjoy most. In fact we really didn’t travel far from the gardens throughout the week. We enjoyed watching the wildlife, from the friendly robins to the herons and their young down near the jetty but the stars were the pine martens, who visited every evening. The only downside side to the apartment is that it is becoming very popular and it is getting harder to book our return visits!

Comfortable but stylish, we absolutely love staying at Inverewe House Apartment.

It's spacious, clean and well maintained, with everything you could need provided, and is set in one of the most stunning gardens we've ever visited. Having them practically to ourselves out of hours was an amazing privilege. The NTS staff team are friendly and welcoming, and there was a lovely selection of local products to try on arrival. The local area has so much to see and explore. We can't wait to return!

A memorable visit.

The apartment exceeded our expectations. The welcome pack was useful. Weather was good and lovely ever changing views from the apartment windows. The gardens were glorious and it was great to be able to wander around these in our own time. The NTS staff were friendly and helpful and we would particularly like to thank Jackie Chester.

We really enjoyed staying at Inverewe House.

We got a lovely welcome and we were very well looked after. The house has magnificent views and is excellently appointed, it’s also fun to be able to pop round the gardens after hours. Thanks for a great stay. Liz and Neil

Exceptional!

Faultless property, location and welcome.

A historic property in a spectacular location and beautiful garden.

We spent a wonderful 3 weeks there and were very comfortable. We have been going for years and this was our first experience in the apartment which we enjoyed immensely. Douglas, visitor services manager, Willie maintenance, Liz and all the staff are a great team, providing a welcoming and superb service. Kevin and all his garden team do a magnificent job in the garden, we appreciate all their work. We love our annual holiday there and look forward to going back next year.

Wonderful unique setting with a high level of comfort - perfect.

Watched otter from lounge window one evening- stunning gardens.

Great stay, only niggle was we couldn’t use the en suite shower as the tray doesn’t drain fast enough for the water pressure.

Other than that, location and staff were very responsive and helpful.

We had a wonderful week (2 adults and a 3 year old) in the House Apartment, having stayed twice previously in the Garden Lodge.

We return because we love visiting the garden and wider area, and it was great to stay elsewhere in the grounds for a change. The apartment is well set up, attractive and comfortable, with a friendly welcome from the team and a lovely taster tray of local treats. There is lots of info on the history of the garden, house and region for those interested in that side of things, and also plenty of up to date local info which helped us learn about events and facilities. The garden staff were always really happy to answer any questions or provide suggestions as to what we could do or where we could buy particular things locally. The central location within the grounds was great for garden adventures at all hours, particularly with having a pre-schooler and pregnant woman in the group, and the ability to bring our car to the house out-of-hours for arrival and departure made loading and unloading our luggage really easy. Although the property is on the first floor the shallow and wide stairs were easy to climb. We'll be back soon to stay in one property or the other in the Inverewe NTS Garden - it's now most definitely our family's favourite place to visit!

Shower in ensuite bedroom tended to overflow onto the floor (we were warned about this up front).

We found the hot water ran out too quickly to allow five people to shower in comfort. Welcome pack was excellent as was Jackie in her tour of the apartment. Clean and comfortable with superb views from all the windows

The property was exceptional: the views of the garden and loch, the quality and comfort of the furniture, the high standard of the kitchen and its numerous appliances and the beautiful finish of the wooden floors.

The welcome on our arrival was warm and thorough and we knew we could always ask staff at the shop or cafe for help and advice on walks and local facilities. We loved exploring the gardens and chatting to the gardeners and .we enjoyed the boat trip around the loch. We hope that before too long there will be a charging point for electric cars on site but we had no problems finding charging points nearby. In conclusion, I don’t think there could be a more perfect property.

Wow, this was an amazing stay.

The apartment is in the middle of the gardens but you can unload the car before taking to the designated parking spot. The thoughtfulness of the welcome package was so nice - Inverewe gin and whisky. Entering and leaving the gardens for day trips was easy and all the national trust staff were happy to chat. Boat trip from the garden was great. But having the gardens once all the visitors had gone was magical. Cuddy Rock sunsets, quiet moments in the stunning borders and walks.

As we have visited, and stayed at, Inverewe before we were really looking forward to our first stay at the apartment at Inverewe House.

It certainly didn’t disappoint. Everything from meeting Jackie at the gates, her tour of the house and her stories of the house and the area set us up for a lovely holiday experience. The apartment itself is lovely. Lots of space and the views are exceptional. The thoughtful welcome pack was much appreciated and the lovely fresh flowers made the place very much like home. It is a very tranquil place. Even although it is in the centre of the gardens you don’t really notice the visitors, and once they are all gone in the evening you have the whole garden to yourselves. Plenty of wildlife around and we were lucky enough see one of the pine martens on several occasions. That really made the holiday perfect for me! Will hopefully be back for another stay soon.

The welcome we received was wonderful, flowers, tea, coffee, fruit, toiletries and even locally made spirits, plus a wonderful tour of the house.

The housekeeper had thought of everything. The apartment was stunning, one of the best NT properties that we have stayed in and a beautiful setting. Inverewe gardens are gorgeous.

This was our second stay at Inverewe and we'll definitely be booking a return visit.

We loved staying right in the middle of the beautiful gardens with views over Poolewe and the mountains beyond. We especially enjoyed the fact that once the gardens were closed for the day we were able to wander around and enjoy the peace and beauty of this very special place. The apartment was perfect and we had everything we needed, high quality furnishings and fittings ensured we were very comfortable, lovely sofa's, comfy beds, huge fluffy towels . We appreciated the thought that had gone into the extra little touches including the vases of fresh flowers and the welcome pack. All of the staff we met during our stay were friendly, helpful and very keen to make sure we had everything we needed.

Excellent accommodation and we could not have felt more welcome.

We really appreciated the welcome pack that took our individual circumstances into account (travelling by motorcycle with really limited carrying capacity). Big thanks to Jackie and all the staff and volunteers we met. What a great place to stay!

Absolutely fantastic flat, beautifully renovated and extremely well equipped.

The flat was spotless and we really appreciated both the very generous welcome pack and the personal welcome from Jackie. Everything was so thoughtful - from the welly pull to the huge selection of local information. Jackie and Willy could not have been more helpful and really made our stay. The location in the gardens is amazing - it was a very special holiday and we hope to come back!

We absolutely loved our week at Inverewe House apartment.

A very clean, warm, well appointed, spacious and luxurious apartment, with epic views from every window. We arrived to a warm welcome from the team, including a gorgeous and generous welcome pack. Such a treat to have the gardens to ourselves after visitor closing hours. The Inverewe Gardens and Estate team were so friendly and helpful and clearly very proud of the work they are involved in. We loved every minute of our time in the apartment and the surrounding area. So many epic beaches, mountain walks, swim, bike, kayak, SUP opportunities. We also enjoyed the coffee stops, great food and local museums, including onsite! What a privilege to have the opportunity to spend a week in such a beautiful piece of history. This is a true gem of a holiday location.
