A beautiful peice of heaven getaway in the middle of the Scottish highlands, this stunning little place has 3 cottages available. A spacious loft room, an apartment like geound floor room and an outdoor wooden cottage. The owners are amazing and from day 1 they showed how kind and hospitable hosts they are. We arrived without the car on our first stay and not only did they pick us up when no taxis in the area would but they also had bacon, coffee, bread, butter and all sorts of other bits there for us when we arrived. This is our second visit now and i sit at the end of their driveway looking out over the field on the other side of the road. Its so peiceful here and its nothing like anything ive ever expected before in my time up and down the UK. I now consider the owners friends and have told them if were out and you need bits, just let us know and we'll pick them up. 1000% worth it, even for just a couple of nights. We fell in love with this place not just because of the place, but the people and the peace that comes with it. I cannot suggest this beautiful place more to anyone, just make sure you can drive, thats all 🤣🤣🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

My friend and I stayed for 1 night. Cameron and Maureen went out of their way to make our stay welcomed and comfortable. I informed them via email about my dietary requirements and they went the extra mile to provide Gluten free cooked breakfast for me which is very much appreciated. The room is clean, bed comfortable, with coffee & tea making facility, biscuits and bottled water.Cameron recommended where to go for our dinner - the Italian Touch at Portmohamack 2 miles away and offered to phone the restaurant and booked a table for us. We had a table by the window looking out to the amazing views. A very nice restaurant offering GF dishes.Cameron cooked a superb breakfast and the breakfast room on the first floor provide amazing views. A very beautiful cottage with great hosts. Definitely and highly recommended place to stay.
