This beautiful remote cottage on a picturesque estate high up the Findhorn Valley, offers guests the ideal escape from everyday life with incredible wildlife just moments from the doorstep.

If you like your cottages wild then you certainly won’t be disappointed by this property, which affords a fantastic location in the heart of the Highlands. Situated high up the Findhorn Valley on the pretty Glenmazeran Estate, this is the perfect setting to watch deer who graze outside the property as well as wild goats and eagles. Wildlife lovers and fans of the great outdoors will find plenty of exciting things to do from this fantastic base.

Fresh, crisp and clean, the bright and airy interior provides a homely yet modern space for families and friends to enjoy. The ground floor is home to a lounge, kitchen/diner, twin bedroom with en-suite bathroom, laundry room and WC. The property has been fully refurbished with a neutral palette, using soft tweeds and muted tones to create a relaxing space. This is the perfect spot to relax during the evening, with soft sofas, TV and DVD player as well as a wood burner to warm up those chilly evenings. The kitchen/diner contains all the mod cons you will need for a self-catering stay. There’s a little sunroom on this floor too, which overlooks the pretty land. Upstairs on the first floor, a further two bedrooms complete the space. Both decorated tastefully and boast their own en-suite bathrooms.

Outside you will find a private garden with outdoor furniture and a barbecue. There could be no better setting than this for a family meal during the evening. Sunsets here can only be breathtaking.

Get away from it all and experience true Scotland at this property. This is the real Scotland - this is the Highlands. There is a wealth of outdoor opportunities for keen explorers as well as gentle hikers. When you have the great outdoors as your playground the possibilities really are endless. If you would like to try fishing on the Findhorn then it may be possible to organise this by arrangement (there are lots of fishing opportunities in Scotland but please do check the rules beforehand). There are walking and cycling opportunities right from your doorstep but if you want to explore a little further afield then the city of Inverness is located around 16 miles from the cottage. Here you will find a wealth of attractions, including Inverness Castle, Abertarff House (the oldest house in Inverness) and Inverness Cathedral. Cairngorm National Park is located within driving distance and provides visitors with countless outdoor opportunities. This is a fantastic area with stunning scenery, so make sure you plan this in advance and take a whole day to explore what it has to offer. Regardless of how you plan to spend your time, this cottage forms a great base to explore The Highlands.

Absolutely stunning location in winter and reindeer at times Litrally outside your window is magical. Nice homely feel, WiFi is perfectly fine. Only slight niggle was theyre all single beds (can kinda see in pictures just wasn't 100% sure at booking) and lower beds are uncomfortable. This all being said I would definitely recommend to anyone and weRead more're already planning are next stay here Hide

My wife (55) and me (51) think this cottage is a real find; the setting is beautiful - river, hills, wild deer. The cottage bedrooms are well sized and all en suites are plenty roomy. The real fire in the lounge is great! The whole cottage is immaculately cleaned as is the linen, and throughout it smelled clean and fresh. Excellent base for seeing Read morethe sights - CairnGorm, LochNess, Cawdor and Nairn. The property itself though is nicely tucked away from civilisation. Hide

Amazing place ,on a clear night it's perfect for star gazing,walks along the river,hiking,massive ground for your dog to run around. Only slight err I can think of is if they had shower mixer system instead of having to run full baths every time.Its personal preference obviously and not a Biggie. This place 100% rivals Switzerland in terms of sceneRead morery, picturesque location etc and worth its value. Would definitely visit again Hide

Really lovely cottage, beautifully appointed and very remote. If you have dogs then they have to be on leads at all times as there are deer and sheep and other lovely wildlife very closeby. There is no enclosed space where the dog(s) can be safely away from the sheep and deer. Highly recommended but don't trust your SatNav!
