is a charmingly redesigned, very old Highland Cottage with 3ft thick stone walls, which stands, detached, in its own pretty garden, just 100 yards from the River Cannich (fishing available) on the very edge of the small village of Cannich - gateway to the stupendously lovely Glen Affric - 12 miles west of Drumnadrochit on Loch Ness.

Right on the sea front in the picturesque little highland village of Applecross, with wonderful views across to Raasay and Skye, the Old Post Office is a delightful new conversion for two people, snug and comfortable, which will be a firm favourite all year round.

In a peaceful rural situation just half an hour from St Andrews and 40 minutes drive from Edinburgh. Converted with great flair and imagination, it is a perfect base from which to explore the beaches, golf courses and historic attractions of this most lovely area of Scotland.

This holiday cottage is tucked away, all on its own, right at the water's edge on a small private island in Loch Moidart (access by private launch) between Mull and Skye - an old, restored cottage which enjoys glorious views across the loch to a few small islands and mainland Moidart.

is situated on the Mid Fearn Estate which rims the Dornoch Firth in one of the most attractive areas of northern Scotland. A cosy little studio hideaway for two people, it stands among trees and behind it a gurgling burn runs down in a series of rocky pools and waterfalls.
