Cottage holiday rentals in Applecross

Another long stay at Forge End has come to an end for my self and work colleague. Again a big thank you to Alea for accommodating us and looking after us over the past 13 weeks and during the booking process. Forge End has been a real home from home for us and has made a long period working away from home a really enjoyable. Your home in Applecross is real find for us and if/when we are required to visit Applecross you will be our first choice every time. Thank you again from both of us.

This garden cottage was straight out of a romantic fairytale! The gorgeous garden surrounding the cottage and the view of the water and misty rolling hills framed perfectly by a stone wall and ivy were just breathtaking (especially while sitting in the wood fire heated hot tub). The cottage itself was incredibly cozy. We had nearly gotten stranded on Islay with car issues and we weren’t even sure we’d get to enjoy this stop on our holiday. By the time we arrived, we were completely exhausted from the chaos of the previous 24 hours so this relaxing and welcoming space was exactly what we needed to decompress. ☺️ The cottage was well equipped and very clean! We had everything we needed and then some. Caroline was an exceptional host. She was remarkably responsive and lovely to interact with both prior to our stay (when we weren’t sure we’d be able to make it) and during our stay! Anyone with the opportunity to stay here, should absolutely do it! Thank you for everything, Caroline!!

Absolutely fantastic location, with fantastic scenery nearby. Had some wonderful walks, literally behind the property. The BBQ area was fantastic like the hot tub. I can’t say much more, but I will be looking to return ASAP Matthew is a fantastic host and nothing seems to be too much of a problem. Loved the place, oh and the Highland cows are awesome.

Eagles Nest is a stunning property in a peaceful and beautiful location. David was a superb host who was there to meet us and give us great inside guidance on Skye. The apartment was spotless and had considerations for every situation we could think of including a lovely hamper which meant we didnt need to consider rushing around for food after a long drive. A cosy home which is ideal for 2 people and is a perfect location where you can easily drive to all the tourist spots in under an hour but not be overwhelmed by Tourists day and night.

We loved our stay in the waterfall cottage! It was a perfect place for our newlywed destination to kick off our honeymoon. The view is stunning and we loved drinking our morning coffee in the back porch taking it all in. The inside is very cozy and we cooked many meals in the kitchen which was well appointed. There are other lodgings directly adjacent to the property but fortunately were all vacant otherwise it would have been less private than expected. This is listed as a detached cottage, but a wall is directly shared with a cottage next door technically making this a duplex. A bit misleading but all good since it was vacant for our stay. Nina was responsive to all our questions which we appreciated. We loved Loch Tay, the Crannog Center, and Aberfeldy nearby. While there are no direct signs to get to the lochside, there are paths down to the loch through the gate or nearby boathouse lodge entrance from the road to walk down to see the water.

The house was wonderful - we were delighted with both the location and with the property. The house was immaculate, and beautifully furnished with some really lovely pictures and objects throughout. The rooms were all good-sized and bright with the kitchen/dining area overlooking the garden a real standout. It was very well maintained and it felt like a proper home from home. The location was really lovely too - nice and quiet with a very short walk to the beach. We particularly enjoyed our walks around the area and along to Chanonry Point to look for the dolphins. A local pub and a lovely restaurant were close by too which was a bonus! Our host, Eva, provided us with clear and concise information prior to our arrival and messaged us a couple of times during our stay to make sure that all was in order. This was very much appreciated. We would not hesitate to recommend the property to others, and we certainly plan to visit again!

Wow!! What a beautiful spot! Betty’s lookout was perfectly outfitted for our party of three and we enjoyed both the cabin, the hot tub, the wood burning stove and the views!!! We were so lucky to get the pleasure of the incredible food, service and ambience of Monkstadt 1745 for dinner while there. Making our bucket list trip to Scotland and Isle of Skye so very special. Thank you for an incredible experience.

Lovely place , super clean with everything you would ever need for a short/long stay .super responsive when messaged too ! What a great place ! Only issue is parking on and off the drive can be super tight due to the neighbours parking outside the drive other than that what a place !

great stay at obbe view! gorgeous views and an easy to find location with plenty of space and kitchen amenities. if you are staying in the summer, recommend an eye mask to block out the long hours of sunlight! enjoyed the skylights in the bedrooms for natural lighting. thanks for a great stay.

We liked the Angels share very much and we immediately felt very comfortable. Thank you, we will be happy to come back.

Beautiful cottage. Felt out of the way but was close to road into portree. Very warm building, bathroom and rooms superb. Would highly recommend and revisit. Visiting sheep was an added bonus!

What an amazing location and host. We were blessed with sunshine for our stay which made it even more spectacular. Una was a brilliant host, provided recommendations and the AirBnb was perfect for our stay. Can't wait to visit again and explore more of the highlands.

We really enjoyed our stay. The kabin was spacious, welcoming and comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped and made cooking easy. It was great to havethe basic items such as soap, dishwasher tablets, kitchen roll and so on. The view was wonderful especially when a bright, uplifting rainbow appeared. We saw deer too which with the binoculars were clear to see. The beds were comfortable and the bedding spotless. Thank you Sonia and the team, it was everything that we hoped for. And a special thank you to Liz for giving us such a warm welcome.

Very cozy home in Luib. There are NO restaurants nearby, either cook at home or eat before you will reach there. Wonderful view from therrace across the Loch to the opposite mountains

We had great time at the Owl cottage, we felt right at home. There was ample space for 2 adults and 2 kids, and we would have loved to bring our dog as he too would have loved it, but unfortunately we had to leave him overseas. The kitchen had every thing we needed and everything was clean and in fantastic condition. WIFI and cell coverage was spotty, and Jane did warn us about the WIFI ahead of time. All in all it was a great stay and we highly recommend staying at the Owl cottage.

Susie’s place was lovely! Location was superb for exploring Skye. The cottage was thoughtfully prepared for guests! Susie gave us excellent recommendations for places to eat and things to do in the area. Would definitely stay again!

What a lovely little gem this place is. Very clean and comfortable with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The area is beautiful, wish we had longer to explore. We only used one of the listed restaurants, The Bistro, and although it was a bit pricey- it is worth every penny- the food is amazing. Thank you Emma and Andrew- you have done a great job with this cottage. Good communication and good directions. 😊 Overall- we would highly recommend this property.

We absolutely loved Julie and Kenny's cottage. It was very clean and exactly what we had hoped, based upon the listing. We knew we would arrive late, but ended up getting there after midnight. Kenny made it easy to get into the cottage. We loved being a little remote. This was perfect. Just far enough out without making it difficult to get back to a restaurant or grocery store. It was the perfect home base for everything we did on Skye. The only difficulty we had was locating the cottage upon our arrival in the dark. We couldn't see the cottage from the road. In daylight, it wouldn't be a problem. We were greeted each day by various farm animals. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook breakfasts and dinners. We used the washer and dryer while we were there. The shower was wonderful. We enjoyed getting to know Kenny, and he was quick to respond to an issue we encountered with the TV. We only wished we could bring the cottage with us for the rest of our trip.

A stunning location for this cottage. It was peaceful and has incredible views over the waters to the mountains. It was wonderful to see the tide come and go, we felt close to nature. The cottage was clean and well stocked with kitchen equipment. There are games and books and enough for wood for your first night there. Underfloor heating was lovely and the fire heated the house really well to the point I needed to open the door to cool down - which is great to know you won’t be cold when you’re up there at the end of Autumn! Having a bath while looking out in the views to the mountains felt like a luxury.

The cottage is in a stunning location,looking across the water to the hills. It is very convenient for visiting many beautiful areas of Scotland. The immediate area to the house was very quiet and we were able to relax. The cottage is well equipped and comfortable.

Elizabeth’s house is a traditional house but yet equipped with a huge array of features like dishwasher and washer to keep up with our laundry needs. Toys, basketball and Netflix definitely keep my kids entertained. Most importantly is the jaw dropping view of the sheep and greenery with the Braes in the background when you look out of the window. A friendly and hospitable host who is willing to go the extra mile! 👍

There is not enough space in this box for me to express how lovely Fiona and her cottage are! Everything is exactly as pictured (actually even more beautiful than pictured) and Fiona is lovely, incredibly responsive to any messages and happy to go above and beyond for any questions that I had. Everything in the cottage is clearly labeled with helpful instructions for use, and Fiona reviewed everything with me at check-in as well. I was traveling alone, and she checked in with me several times to make sure I was comfortable and ensure that everything was going well. A minor repair was needed while I was there and Fiona's husband quickly addressed it and was very considerate with ensuring the repair was done at a time that I would be out. The surroundings are peaceful and incredibly beautiful. I will absolutely be back!

A fantastic space relax in between Skye outings. The view is incredible. No words. Everything has been done to a high standard in the Byre and it feels very cosy. Lynn was extremely helpful when we had questions. Would recommend, especially if it’s your first time visiting Skye.

We've just returned from another wonderful stay at Hilary & Graeme 's cottage. The cottage is so peaceful and is in an ideal location to explore the surrounding countryside. A beautiful space to unwind and relax. Hilary left us a much appreciated treat basket which is a lovely touch. Looking forward to our stay next year.
