Cottage vacation rentals in Loch Ness

Fantastic house, great facilities, loved the jacuzzi. Stayed for a week of golf and was very central to our needs. Host was available when needed but no interference. Recommendations for food were excellent! Highly recommend.

Beautiful cottage in a lovely location. The cottage was well kept and very homely. It was ideal for our family with everything we needed. The location was fantastic. Great walks for the dogs, both at the cottage and nearby (some recommended by the owner). As well as close to a number of child friendly locations and activities for our 7 year old. A large Tesco was nearby as well as some great restaurants. We found it very relaxing and enjoyed watching the garden birds, red squirrel, and local deer. The owner was very helpful, with quick responses, and all relevant information provided in advance. The only point we have to note was the limited water pressure for the shower. The owner did make us aware of this in advance of the visit. Although low pressure, it was also still sufficient, clean, and worked so we could have a shower. Thanks again to Ashley for all her support throughout and her beautiful holiday home.

We enjoy this cottage so much that this is the 3rd time we have been. The perfect place to relax.

Beautiful cottage, with absolutely everything you need. Comfy and spotlessly clean. The garden is lovely to look out on from the conservatory when eating. Hot tub in the pretty garden was lovely day or night. Eva was a great host, providing lots of info on checking in etc. The location is really perfect as well, 2 mins walk to the beach, about 30 along the beach to Chanory point, lovely fairy glen walk along burn to beautiful waterfalls. Beach cafe 2mins away and cafe/restaurant Crofters (which you can sit in our takeaway) less than 10. 2 Playparks within a few mins walk as well. Highly recommend and we will definitely be back!

Would just like to say thank you for my stay me and my family loved it spicily the love for cars and stuff cars what was clear throw out the house as someone who’s into cars my self 10/10 for that one small thing can be tricky to get parked sometimes tho that has nothing to do with host just the street but 100% does not affect the stay just to be mindful other than that 10/10 we place really is thank you so much will be back again!!!

We had a beautiful home from home stay at this lovely cottage. Everything was perfect and an ideal set up for our toddler too. The garden was wonderful to explore and it was ideal to have the woodland paths right on our front door step. The hot tub on the bedroom patio was a little sun trap and perfect for relaxing. The cottage had everything we could have wanted and a well set up kitchen. Lots of do in the local area and an evening spent by the open fire was the perfect was to end the day. Laura was a really attentive host, accommodating our extra requests and meeting us at the property - thanks for a lovely stay we would absolutely love to come back.

This cottage truly is off the grid. The owner Tilly had to drive us there from Tomintoul 15 min drive. No other house in sight. Just pure hilly countryside with about 100 deers hanging out in the field in front of us. Amazing peaceful place with outstanding views. No WiFi but liked that. Good 4g reception and digital terrestrial TV with a DVD player and choice of DVDs. We made good use of the hot tub daily and the sauna and even braved the plunge pool a few times which has fresh water from the mountains. Quite refreshing. We did a couple of day trips to Loch Ness 90 min and G2 adventure 50 min away. Local village Tomintoul has a nice village shop with amenities and pubs and restaurants. A restful idyllic place and good value for money.

We absolutely loved our stay, and can’t recommend Dalnaglar Cottage enough. The cottage was well equipped, warm, and spacious. We stayed over Christmas and had everything we needed to make the perfect Christmas away from home. The area was fantastic, with walks from the front door - we loved the lochan and forest walks. And the hot tub was a great extra addition! The surroundings are so quiet and beautiful. And it’s just a 30 minute (stunningly beautiful) drive to Braemar.

We had a brilliant 4 day break at this lovely wee cottage. There was absolutely everything we needed for our stay and we loved all the extra wee decorative touches Brett has added too. We were blessed with sun every day and breakfast in the cute wee garden was a great way to start each day. Loved that we were 1 minutes walk from the beach and did a lot of exploring along this beautiful part of the coast. We even did a bit of body boarding in the sea too!! Would definitely stay again.

We absolutely loved our stay at this gorgeous renovated cottage. We loved the decor and feel of the cottage, it was so cosy and comfortable and we loved having the indoor fire. Everything was just perfect. The owners are lovely and helped with everything we needed. Cute towns nearby to explore so it made for a perfect couple of nights on our travels.

We absolutely adored our stay here. It was very comfortable and cozy, felt like home instantly. Walking distance to a wonderful restaurant that had been recommended. Mairi met us and was very welcoming and showed us around the property. Great amenities, very accurate description of property given. Would recommend to anyone! Thank you for having us!

Lovely stay! Accommodation was beautiful, all the thoughtful extras I’ve probably never seen an Airbnb go so far out their way to add that little extra to enhance a visitors stay. Very responsive to questions and the property was immaculately clean! 5 ⭐️

We had a lovely time in Aviemore. The property was as described on the site and is in a quiet area but within walking distance to town Carol was very helpful and responded quickly to any queries. I would highly recommend the property and visit again.

What an amazing place! Step back in time into an authentic old Scottish cottage. Sitting outside drinking my coffee looking at the view surrounded by nature was so relaxing. You will not find hosts anywhere else as friendly as Judy and Tim. The kitchen window had every kind of wildlife you can imagine and the red squirrels on the windowsill each morning made our day. Being dog friendly there is also little woods owned by the hosts to allow your dogs to run around as it is all enclosed. Such an amazing place….. we will be back ❤️

We had a lovely stay. The local surroundings were beautiful and fascinating. The pub attached to the hotel next door was perfect for food. The cottage is lovely and cosy , we absolutely loved the real fire and listening to the running water of the little brook outside the back door.

We found the location and facilities of Lisa and Martins cottage to be superb. The cozy cottage is within walking distance to all of the local shops, pubs and restaurants but is still very quiet. We had delicious meals at the Clachan Grill and Balmoral Arms. Cottage is stylishly decorated, spotlessly clean with a beautiful garden area which the dogs loved. We found everything we needed for a great stay, Martin gave us some really useful tips on things to do and see in the area. Loved it here, the scenery in and around Ballater is breath taking ! Wonderful hosts, would recommend this cottage to anyone. Would book again !

Plain and simple, this was THE best air b’n’b we have ever stayed in. Everything about it. The location and the club and grounds are just beyond stunning. Breathtaking views. Between the back view of the highland club facing Loch Ness to looking over your shoulder to see Loch Ness, just amazing. The cottage itself while not a part of the main building was perfect. All the amenities needed and plenty of space for the four of us. Waking up to the snow on the lawn outside was beautiful. The hamper on arrival was so helpful for our 3 nights there. The board games, fire place and sporting equipment was great. The games room and especially heated pool inside was amazing to relax and look out to the snowy mountains. Honestly, was sad to leave and could have stayed there another week! Worth every cent. Our two kids were in heaven.

Lovely cottage in a beautiful location. Clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. Peaceful area so great to relax. Perfect for what we needed! Defo recommend and will be rebooking again! Thanks Paul

Kathryn is a great friendly host! The place is beautiful and she has provided all including every spice for the kitchen. Highly responsive and a joyful person! We had a wonderful stay!

Perfect last minute find for a one night stay. Was bless with sun and clear sky for star gazing on the patio. Cottage is a few minutes walk to the loch edge, that I took full advantage of with a morning dip (albeit I had planned for a swim….) It was perfectly stocked, even with a small bottle of milk and cake (and robes and blanket)! Forever grateful for the memories made! Already planning for a winter return!

We loved staying at Woodside, it had such a good feel to the place, really warm and comfortable, exactly what you’re after on a break away. Stunning surroundings, lovely garden and a well thought out and cared for home, really lovely! We’ll definitely be back and will recommend to friends and family thanks x

We stayed for 2 nights in Chloe & Brad’s lovely cottage in Fort William with family, and it was a fantastic experience. The place was cosy, clean, and well-equipped — perfect for a family getaway. The views of the surrounding hills were absolutely stunning, and it was a peaceful base to explore the Highlands. Chloe & Brad were friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend it for anyone looking for a relaxing stay in Fort William!

What a fantastic stay we had at the Bothy. A wonderful setting, so pretty and tranquil. Loved sitting on the bench looking over the bay. Had a Lovely walk to the cafe for lunch. All the locals we spoke to were all so friendly. Thank you for a great holiday, we loved it.

Really Nice Location, and the cottage was absolutely lush. Will be coming back here soon.
