Kincurdie Cottage

This beautiful cottage has plenty of space for six and several special features, including the wood burner, an Xbox, and a lovely garden. Located on the Black Isle in the Northern Highlands, the cottage is in an elevated position overlooking Rosemarkie Bay and is close to the local village amenities (0.5 miles). Friends or family will love staying here and exploring the surrounding area.

The property brings together bright, modern interiors with luxury touches and traditional features. It’s stylishly decorated throughout with lots of attention to detail to ensure guests have everything they need. It has three spacious bedrooms, a private garden and stunning sea views.

On the ground floor are two lounges, both have Smart TVs. The main lounge also has an Xbox and a wood burner for spending cosy nights in curled up on the sofas. The second lounge has a sumptuous corner sofa to relax on. The large kitchen/diner has a dining table and chairs and a breakfast bar. Treat yourselves to a night off and book a private chef to prepare dinner with paired wines (at an additional cost). There’s also a handy utility room/boot room for doing your laundry on the ground floor.

Upstairs are the three bedrooms: two king-size and a super-king-size, which can be made up as a twin. All three bedrooms benefit from having Velux windows and lots of light, and one of the kings also has an en-suite shower room with a walk-in shower. In addition, there’s also a family bathroom with a bath and a shower for everyone to use.

On sunny days, enjoy the enclosed garden with a lawn and patio complete with garden furniture and a BBQ – ideal for dining alfresco. One of the cottage’s special features is the direct access from the garden to the beach, which is listed as one of the best coastal bays for wild swimming.

Head out to explore the Fairy Glen, a delightful, wooded glen with two waterfalls about 300 metres from the house. Rosemarkie village has a good choice of shops, restaurants, and cafes, around 0.5 miles away, and a selection of pubs to choose from. The village is also home to Groam House Museum, a must for anyone interested in ancient Scottish history and Pictish and Celtic art. It’s also home to the Black Isle brewery where you can enjoy a tour and taste their beers.

The Black Isle peninsula is a nature lovers’ paradise and an excellent destination for wildlife watching. Chanonry Point, just 2 miles away, is a popular spot to observe bottlenose dolphins and grey seals. Take your clubs with you if you fancy applying a round at one of the Championship Golf Courses nearby, Fortrose and Rosemarkie are both within 1 mile from the cottage.

Munlochy Clootie Well has a fascinating history and is worth a visit, about 7 miles from the cottage. You’ll see the brightly coloured rags as you approach – called the “cloots” – that have been dipped in the well in the hope of it curing an illness. Feel free to take your own offering! You’ll also find a pretty, woodland trail nearby that takes you around the Big Burn, where you’ll see stunning waterfalls and wildlife.
