Property Description
The cottage is in a small, quiet hamlet two miles up the hill from Evanton village. It is actually part of a converted farm steading consisting of ten cottages, all made of natural stone. Ours is the only one fortunate enough to have a vaulted ceiling and Juliet balcony on the first floor, where the lounge is situated. Bespoke wooden beds and shelves for bathroom basins. Fantastic kitchen with breakfast bar and en-suites with walk-in showers, and one with a slipper bath. A cosy courtyard with heating and lighting and a covered pergola. This is a great place to stay and use as a base to explore, or stop off for a few days while driving the NC500. Whilst our cottage sleeps 4 - one king-size room and one double room - we do have a single fold-up bed (which can be put up in the living room) and a travel cot - both are available upon request when booking. https://swordalestays.comAbout pets:No pets allowed.About checkOut:Check out before 11:00 AM.About children:Children allowed: ages 0-17.About checkIn:Check in after 4:00 PM.About smoking:Smoking is not permitted.About events:No events allowed.

Super comfy
We loved this house. It was raining outside and we were tired and this house was perfect, exactly what we needed. Comfortable, relaxing. We immediately felt at home. The kitchen is amazing. And the living room spacious, warm and inviting. Loved all the details. Highly recommend.

Outstanding country apartment
Without doubt one of the best places we’ve stayed, anyone The apartment is beautifully restored and renovated and it is very clean and equipped for some serious cooking and living. It accommodates four in real comfort. The location rating reflects that it is out of town and so requires a car for any trip or shopping. Could be 5 stars if country quiet is your thing. On a single track road; use What Three Words to find it. Google and Apple Maps won’t get you there.Communication with Roger was excellent as well. Overall very highly recommend. With bells on.

Best coffee ever
Fantastic stay! The house is beautiful and the location affords easy access for what ever direction you choose to travel. Best coffee maker we have ever seen.
Maybe better directions to the home would be nice otherwise 10 out of 10! Fresh flowers were a very nice touch!
Thank you!

Dingwall Stay
Great property had everything we needed for a week stay. Enjoyed the outdoor patio and the coffee machine was awesome, a really nice touch for those of us who enjoy a good cup or two in the morning. Location was great for seeing all the Highlands had to offer.

Beautiful cottage with luxurious finishing
The best place to discover the beauty of the Scottish Highlands. The house is up to a exceptional standard and has all you could possibly need, from UFH to high end bathrooms and a magnificent kitchen.
