Cosy cottage in fabulous location. Plenty of firewood for the fire, toilet rolls and kitchen towel provided. Lots of easy, circular walks locally along the river, around to Walled Garden and pub. Our dog loved swimming in the river and really stretching her legs chasing the ball at the wide open spaces at Sand. Watching the deer walk past the windoRead morew each evening was a highlight as were the baby Highland cattle in the field opposite. We've stayed several times and will return next year. Hide

The accommodation was outstanding and had everything we needed and more. There are many beautiful walks from the front door. We enjoyed listening to the birds and watching the highland cows and deer. A wonderful week. Thank you!

It's a lovely spot and the house is quite spacious. The view out over the parkland is wonderful and the deer come right up to the house. The kitchen is well equipped with a dishwasher and there is a utility room with washing machine. The beds were really comfortable. There are plenty of good walks around the estate and down to the beach.

We loved Applecross - a fantastic haven, with the excitement of the Bealach na Ba and then the beautiful shoreline. We loved this cottage just as much: it was clean, nicely decorated and much more spacious than we expected. We loved watching the deer walk past the window as we ate dinner. Lovely place.

Beautiful cottage in a beautiful location. There were fewer midges than we were expecting, but still remember your midge spray! Lots of great options for walks, cycles and painting locations.
