"We have no complaints at all with the cottage or its fabulous location , everything was as described on the app ."
The only downside for us and its only because we have a small car , the 7 mile very rutted road to it , but a minor complaint only, it did not mar our enjoyment of the cottage .

"It was my first time visiting Scotland and I stayed at this charming cottage, it was nothing short of spectacular."
Nestled in a tranquil area, the cottage provided the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The serene surroundings and the picturesque views were simply breathtaking. Every morning, I was greeted by the sight of lush greenery, as someone who has always lived in the city surrounded by buildings this was honestly eye opening, making it the perfect spot for nature lovers.
The cottage itself was cozy and well-appointed, with all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay. The kitchen was fully equipped, allowing us to prepare our meals with ease, and the living area was perfect for unwinding in the evenings with a good film or a book (the cottage had both books to read, DVD’s to watch a film and a smart TV to browse through).
The area was incredibly peaceful, providing a much-needed escape into nature. The only sounds I heard were the gentle rustling of trees and the occasional chirping of birds, creating a tranquil atmosphere that was perfect for relaxation. Whether I was enjoying my morning tea on the decking or taking a leisurely walk around the area, I felt a deep sense of calm and rejuvenation.
There were plenty of scenic trails for hiking, the cottage had a lot of leaflets, travel guides and folders with maps to see nearby attractions. We visited a waterfall that wasn’t too far from the back of the cottage took us approx 1-2 hours to reach and it was breathtaking (just a heads up it was a lot of walking and some incline). There’s also an estate nearby that held the beautiful Highland cows and had some hiking trails. We saw a deer once on the first day but unfortunately we didn’t see anymore. There was beautiful little birds that would visit the birdhouse in the garden every morning (leave some seeds and water for them to have) and there was some frogs, sheep, turkeys, pigs and the locals friendly dogs. This cottage is a great base if you’re interested in visiting Isle of Skye it takes around an hour from the cottage.
John and Mae were both incredibly friendly and welcoming, they were both attentive to any needs and always willing to assist with any inquiries or requests. Their easygoing nature and sincere care contribute to a truly memorable and pleasant stay. We felt incredibly comfortable throughout our stay couldn’t have asked for a better experience! The locals were also welcoming and friendly adding to the overall positive experience!
In conclusion, this cottage offered an unforgettable experience. The combination of its beautiful views, peaceful surroundings, and comfortable accommodations made it a perfect getaway. I highly recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a serene and beautiful place to stay in the Scottish Highlands! :)
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a detailed and lovely review. It was a delight having you and your family stay with us, and we are very lucky to have had such lovely guests visit, it has been a great pleasure!

"The cottage was beautiful, very comfortable living space with all."
You need to enjoy your stay. The beds very comfortable to sleep in. The surrounding area has views to die for. John the host is a very lovely man popped in to ask if all was going well. He advised us on some days out to Plockton and Glenelg. I would highly recommend here and will be returning myself in the future
Thank you for the lovely review and feedback. We would be very pleased to welcome you back here any time!

"The cottage is even better than in the pictures."
The views down the glen are like a painting. The House was very clean, stylish and well presented. Kitchen was well equipped with all the items you could possibly need. Having the mountains on your doorstep is a jackpot for someone who likes long or small hikes. This is the perfect place if you want quiet and break from busy city/town life. The host was very nice and gave us a few tips where to go. We felt very welcome - we will definitely be back.

It was so well equipped with all and more than we needed. From the moment we walked in we relaxed and the setting was amazing- we couldnt stop looking at the views the entire week. The whole place was so clean.
Great location to explore Skye but so much on the doorstep or a short drive too.

Comfortable and totally quiet with stunning views from every room - and a great base to explore the Highlands and Isle of Skye. Be prepared for a few miles of single track road to reach the cottage but it’s worth it.

"A lovely, lovely property with simply magnificent views."
It totally met our expectations. The owner came to check everything was OK which it was and was very welcoming. We had a great holiday but the weather was against us and the only respite from the rain was on day trips out. If we had to nitpick about anything it would be that the TV needs updating to a newer, larger model for the size of the room . It is not something that would bother us normally but with the weather being so wet we were more reliant on it during the evening.. A very small quibble, it was a great comfortable place to stay.
