Fantastic little cottage with everything we needed (except wifi). We enjoyed golfing at local courses, the salmon leaping and the country show!

Lovely cottage in a tranquil setting

Well equipped, warm and cosy cottage. Loved the log burner on chilly nights. We had a relaxing holiday and coming back to the lovely cottage after a day out made for a fabulous holiday .

Quiet Enjoyment

We enjoyed our stay and found it to be just pure quiet enjoyment. The barn had everything you will need for a wonderful holiday including a fireplace that gave some wonderful ambiance. The barn is located close to Dornoch, which is a fantastic city to explore for golf, history, shopping and dining. You really feel that you are in the Highlands at this stay.

About the host

Hosted by Jamie Waring

Why they chose this property

The property was originally bought by my parents as a holiday home in the late 60's , It didn't have electricity for many years so all our holidays were a great adventure spoting deer in the field at the front and catching baby salmon in the stream .
Over the years the property has been renovated and at the end of 2011 was completely re done inside and out but kept its original character it even has a dish washer !

What makes this property unique

Rural , Quiet , Great cycling and walking from the front door . Good fishing in the area in Lochs and Rivers . Lots of Golfing in the area , Close to the coast and lots of place to see bird life , sandy beaches , seals and Dolphins .
