Erholsame Stille und Abgeschiedenheit

Unser Aufenthalt (4 Personen) dort war sehr erholsam, wir haben uns vom ersten Moment an wohlgefühlt. Außer uns waren dort nur Schafe, Kühe und die Stille. Das war sehr schön! Im Haus war es sehr sauber und die Küche war ausreichend gut ausgestattet. In den anderen Räumen, wie Schlaf - und Wohnzimmer fehlte es uns an Abstellflächen, ein kleines Tischchen oder Schränkchen. In den Schlafzimmerern fehlte uns ein normaler Kleiderschrank.

Gemütliches kleines Cottage in einzigartiger Lage

Malerisch in einer Bucht an der North Coast 500 gelegen. Idyllisch und ruhig mit kuscheliger Einrichtung ideal zum entspannen. Ein großes Fenster mit Meerblick wäre das Sahnehäubchen gewesen😉

cosy little cottage

Das Croft House haben genauso erlebt, wie es in der Beschreibung stand. Ruhig und malerisch gelegen mit sehr freundlichen Gastgebern die uns mit frischen Eiern, hausgemachter Butter und selbst gebackenem Ginger-Bread zur Begrüßung überrascht haben. Direkt am Haus waren Schafe und Rinder auf idyllischen Weide. Die Lage ist wirklich einzigartig und das Häuschen seit Generationen im Familienbesitz. Schade dass es deswegen keine großen Fenster zur Seeseite hin gibt, der Ausblick wäre das Sahnehäubchen gewesen. Ansonsten perfekt!!

This is an excellent cottage overlooking a lovely bay. Suitable for those wishing a quiet peaceful stay in the countryside. There are many scenic drives in the surrounding area to be enjoyed. The cottage is clean and cosy, equipped with everything and more. The welcome hospitality of milk, eggs, home baking, wine and whisky from the owner is a lovely welcoming touch. To be highly recommended.

Early Summer in Armadale

Fleuchary cottage provided everything we hoped for in a beautiful location. Just a few minutes from the best beaches on the north coast of Scotland. We enjoyed it so much we have booked fir a week later in the year.

Amazing holiday

We had the most amazing time at the Croft house. So peaceful and private. Gorgeous views overlooking the bay. Some goodies were ready for us when we arrived. Lovely little house, beautifully decorated with everything you would need. A great hub for exploring the Highlands.

What a fabulous 'wee gem' of a croft. It had everything and more. Particularly loved the wood burner!! We had a great time up in Armadale and had a wonderful Highland welcome from the hosts and the locals. Lots of beautiful scenery around the area. A great place for a holiday. Highly recommended. We will definitely be back!!

A beautiful cottage in an exquisite setting. Very cosy and great walks for the dog. Stags at night, sheep during day with the background of a sandy beach and a roaring sea.

Facing the elements, back to fantastic nature

This is a perfect location, right on the sea with the most wonderful walks. The house has all you want, newly done on the inside with nice Scottish details, home baked short bread and fresh eggs. We are a family with the teenage girls. The also had a great time. Thanks!!

Cozy cottage in a stunning location

The November wind was howling like a banshee when we arrived at Croft House, but it was snug and warm inside. We found everything we needed to cook a lovely dinner, and everything was clean and in place. The vibe of the cottage was wonderful, too, and the only bad thing was that we didn't stay longer. Lovely.

Amazing

Das Haus ist eines der besten Unterkünfte, in der wir je geschlafen haben. Super Gastfreundschaft, tolle Einrichtung, tolle Lage! Wir wollten am liebsten bleiben und nicht mehr abreisen. Das Haus ist für jeden zu empfehlen der Ruhe sucht, ein Auto Hat, gerne surft und das Mehr als auch die Highlands liebt.
