Holiday cottages in the Highlands

Self-catering holidays in the Highlands

For a truly magical stay in Scotland, browse our holiday cottages in the Highlands. Straddling the northwest of Scotland, the Highlands is home to some of the country’s most spectacular scenery. The landscape has a wild, untamed beauty where rugged mountains are reflected in deep lochs, and ancient pine forests and heather-clad moorland are home to an array of wildlife. 

Our Highlands holiday cottages are ideal for outdoors enthusiasts, with a wealth of activities at your fingertips from walking, hiking, mountain biking and cycling to horse riding, mountaineering, climbing and water sports. 

The entire region is also a nature lover’s paradise. The Cairngorms National Park is home to rare and endangered species including red deer, red squirrels, pine martins, wildcats, golden eagles and crested tits. Elsewhere, dolphins and other marine life can be seen off the Moray Firth.

In addition to exploring the great outdoors, our Highlands accommodation offers easy access to cultural and historic attractions. See if you can spot the elusive Loch Ness Monster and explore impressive castles such as Urquhart and Cawdor. Discover picturesque villages including Tomintoul, Braemar and Aviemore, and seek out family fun at the Highland Folk Museum, Glenfinnan Viaduct and Inverewe Gardens. Get off the mainland to explore the wilds of the Isle of Arran and Isle of Skye. Located an easy drive or train ride from Edinburgh, our holiday cottages in the Highlands invite you to cosy up on a romantic break, enjoy group adventures in the great outdoors and offer a magical family holiday.
