THE COTTAGE

"This is our 4th time here and all we can say is what a wonderful, welcoming host Alasdair & his family are. the cottage is alwasy lovely. Weather very changeable but love the peace & quiet, even with 4 children in tow!""-John, Belinda, Leo & family (April 2012)

"The perfect retreat. Sat in the sunroom and watched the breathtaking views for hours. Great for dog walks...fantastic for photography...came looking for a complete getaway, and found it. Thank you so much I'll be back!!"-Lesley (March 2012)

"For 40 years we have holidayed in the Highlands and have seen many grand sights. Some have a wow factor and make you stop and stare in awestruck wonder. Dear Reader, the view from this conservatory is one such place. "-Allan & Yvonne (November 2011)

"Perfect location - we have stayed in the area many times but I think we have found the top spot! The cottage ticked all our boxes, making for a very comfortable two weeks - the sun room's a blessing!" "-Anna, Andy, Jean, Stanley & Nancy (July 2011)

"Had a fantastic week. We love the cottage (especially the fire!) & found some great walks & fantastic beaches - had a real family adventure. We have seen eagles, otters, gannets feeding on the loch and red deer on the mountains." "- Simon, Elaine, Ben & Molly (June 2011)

"A great base for art. Tom recorded four inspired guitar tunes on his portable studio, and Jill found the conservatory a super place for painting, with five artworks completed for her upcoming June exhibition." "-Tom, Jill & Ben (May 2011)

"Our week here's been fab! Waking up to that incredible view every day is brilliant! The weather's been surprisingly hot and clear which really made our week. We've been crab fishing in Cove (very scary!) and walked up a few mountains, the walks around here really are beautiful! We've also been sea kayaking...we saw loads of seals really close and we went for a pony trek."-Sarah, David, Izzie, Beth & Fran (April 2011)

"Beautiful views, even more so in the snow! The stove was much appreciated (especially by the dog!) Local stores had everything we needed to stock up on..a charming cottage & a lovely break." ."-Mark, Betty & Duke (December 2010)

"What a great cottage. Perfectly rustic but with all the creature comforts you could want...love the views across Loch Ewe which are ever-changing with the weather. Firemore Sands is simply beautiful and only 5 minutes drive away. Really enjoyed kayaking there, although the water was a bit on the cold side for a swim in October (gave it a go though!") - Mike & Alyson,Sheffield (October 2010)

 

 

THE LODGE

"We arrived here looking tired and worn. We are all going home with less lines on our faces! It was worth travelling 717 miles to find this wonderful spot. We feel rested, restored and relaxed." - Patty, Suze, Janette & June, (April 2012)

"We had a superb week in this beautiful, spacious Lodge with excellent views! Thank you for a wonderful & memorable holiday." - (Jaap & Fenneke,( February 2012))

"The best parts of our holiday have been the awe-inspiring scenery, wonderful wildlife and warmth and friendliness of everyone we have into contact with. Can't wait to come back to the Highlands."-Lorraine & Andy, (October 2011)

"This is out third visit to The Lodge and it's just as bright, light & comfortable as we remembered it! We have thoroughly enjoyed our week in this most beautiful part of Scotland. The weather has not been too kind this week but we still enjoyed a good few walks, doging the showers. The Lodge is so cosy that just watching the magnificent views from the lovely picture windows is no real hardship!" - Ian & Heather (September 2011)

We had a super week in spite of the weather going through all four seasons, sometimes in the space of an hour! Loved the friendliness of everyone we met (local or visitor) & the comfort of the lodge - great to retreat to when the weather was doing its worst!"- Phil & Gaye, May 2011)

"Trying to think of something inspiring to say...but the view is inspiring enough. Awesome weekend, peaceful yet wild." - CC & AB (March 2011)

"Lovely week, a bit wet & windy but wrapped up warm and made the most of it. Eco-lodge fantastically warm & comfy - we will definitely be back."- Tracy, Scott & Remy (November 2010)

" Wow! Just wow! What a breathtaking place this is. We had high hopes, but this exceeded them. There have been so many sights, even warships in the loch, we saw an eagle, Gary saw seals while fishing...and so to this house - it's been warm, comfortable, awesome views...we have had a wonderful week." - Gary & Jacky (October 2010)

" We have thoroughly enjoyed our week at Coille Bheag, relaxing in this warm & comfortable lodge...the changing weather means you have a different view from the Lodge every day...as we were standing at the kitchen sink, we saw a golden eagle soaring over the ridge directly outside." - Chris, Sian & Emily (September 2010)

" What a fantastic way to relax & unwind. Had a fabulous week and good weather too for most of the time! The chickens kept us amused, but also managed to see seals, shearwaters, minke whales, a pair of dolphins and even a puffin. We love this area of Scotland and the Lodge is brilliant. We'll certainly recommend it!"- Alison & Tony, (August 2010)
