Lovely location. The cottage suited our needs and good parking, it was cosy with good heating and plenty hot water. The lighting and some of the furniture could do with an update but doesn't affect the overall good points of the cottage. We enjoyed our stay.

First stay at Druidaig Cottage. We wanted somewhere quiet and peaceful and the cottage certainly provided that. Some of the furniture and fittings could do with replacing as they are old and not very comfortable but this did not detract from our holiday. The area is beautiful and the setting of the cottage is perfect. We visited Plockton and saw thRead moree Jacobite steam train at Glenfinnan but also enjoyed local walks and watching the wildlife - badgers, otters and Pine Marten at the house or nearby. Hide

The cottage is in a great location, very peaceful with lovely scenery. Whilst we had everything we needed, the cottage could definitely do with a freshen up, especially the carpets. Also to note, no broadband or WiFi in the house but our mobile network connection was good. The drive along the road by the Loch is beautiful.

This cottage is very olde worlde with furniture to match. At first we were slightly disappointed, but quickly got used to, and appreciated the uniqueness and size of the cottage. A short walk through the trees and you are at the Loch edge where we swam with wetsuits on. The scenery is spectacular and changes daily. The whole area is outstanding andRead more places to visit include the village of Plockton, Glenelg turntable ferry to Skye, Skye itself, and don't miss the Pitstop at Kintail for something Hide

Spacious cottage in good location. Responsive owner (the kettle wasn't working when we arrived and this was resolved quickly). Well cleaned ahead of our arrival. Decent heating and plenty of hot water. However the whole cottage is very tired and could do with updating ahead of the new season, particulalry the sitting room and bedrooms.
