Set within a beautiful converted church overlooking the River Ness, this two-storey apartment places you on a quiet road close to everything that Inverness has to offer. An iconic pedestrian bridge offering easy access to the city's shopping and entertainment districts and no fewer than three fantastic restaurants right on your doorstep.

On the first floor, the cosy living room and sleek kitchen come equipped with everything you might need during your stay. From the comfort of the leather sofas, you can enjoy prints of old Inverness adorning the walls, while quirky stone windows offer views over the water down at floor level. Elsewhere, the entrance level offers a supremely comfortable king-size bedroom, with an en-suite equipped with a bath and a separate shower.

Your convenient riverside location comes with the added benefit of providing easy access to the main road out of the city, placing you within half an hour's drive of Loch Ness, Culloden and the Cairngorms National Park. Whisky lovers will appreciate the opportunity to enjoy a wee dram at any one of several local distilleries. Glen Moray is probably the best known and approximately an hour away – you'll just have to hope your travel partner is willing to be the designated driver.

Finally, for anyone looking to explore Scotland's stunning north coast further, Inverness is the jumping off point for the famed North Coast 500. This scenic 516-mile long route weaves a ring around the northern Highlands before ending back where you started, the beautiful city of Inverness.

This home has been creating a bit of a buzz, and for all the right reasons. It's been featured by the BBC, and is a shining example of Scottish hospitality in the city of Inverness. Step inside, and you'll find a cosy space with plenty of seating, ideal for flopping down with a glass of whisky at the end of a long day exploring. The hosts have put great thought into every aspect of this home, from the luxury toiletries to the Bose speaker systems in every bedroom and the extra-large bathtub where you can soak in perfect peace. And, the hosts try to buy local wherever possible – once you've tried a cup of the locally-roasted coffee along with a freshly-baked slice of shortbread, you'll understand why. You're just a few steps away from the banks of the River Ness, and Inverness Castle is less than five minutes away from your front door, along with a range of shops and restaurants in the city centre. Jump in the car, and it takes twenty-five minutes to reach world-famous Loch Ness for some monster-spotting. Even if you don't spy Nessie, you can hop on one of the boat tours to sail along the water, or hit one of the nearby walking trails for an invigorating hike through the Highland landscapes.

From the outside, this Victorian home looks as quaint as quaint can be, but inside, guests will find an apartment that mixes vintage and modern aspects with considerable dexterity. In the living room, a large bay window floods the space with natural daylight, which dances nicely off the wooden floors and walls painted in muted grey. The Persian rug and deep blue sofa add some bold splashes of colour. Elsewhere, we're big fans of the gleaming copper bathtub in the master bathroom that promises to be as comfortable as it is handsome. Off the same room, there's access to a cute terrace with alfresco seating — yes, it's Scotland, but put on a jumper and enjoy the dramatic sunsets that this corner of the country enjoys. The home's only an eight-minute walk from the River Ness and Inverness's town centre, which includes a castle and an art gallery. Alternatively, if you're feeling more active, Cairngorms National Park takes around half an hour to reach in the car.

The Daughter of Time

Experience historic Scotland at its finest at this castle retreat. This beautiful castle was built in 1560 and has been thoughtfully restored to its former glory by the father-and-daughter owner team. You’ll find antique furniture and historic features throughout the castle, but modern home comforts have been added too. Play board games in front of the fire in the Great Hall before sinking into a four-poster Ralph Lauren bed. Explore the Cairngorms National Park and the nearby golf courses, or drive 1.5 hours to Edinburgh for a day trip. This castle is sure to be a memorable choice.

A Fine Malt

Cosy and charming, this home in the Cairngorms National Park is ideal for nature lovers. It looks out over the River Don, where you can fish for trout, and is in a great location for hill walking. It’s a former coaching inn dating back to the 18th century so if you’re looking for glitz and glam, this isn’t the home for you. That said, it’s been recently renovated and has all the contemporary comfort you might wish for. Your four-legged friends can even join you – this is a real home-from-home.

Get away from it all at this stylish, freshly renovated cottage with its stunning views of the Isle of Skye's countryside and mountains. We love the large, light-filled open plan living room, which is perfect for entertaining your family and friends. The vistas from the large windows are sublime. Gather around the contemporary log burner with a wee dram as the mist rolls in (there's underfloor heating here to keep you toasty as well). There's a lovely terrace off the master bedroom, perfect for a morning coffee. Or, when the weather is sunny, relax in the lawned garden.

When you feel like exploring, Dunvegan Castle and Gardens within the 42000-acre MacLeod Estate is 14 kilometres away. Or go for a hike around the spectacular Cuillin mountain range, 15 kilometres from here. The island's capital, Portree, set around a natural harbour, is also well worth a visit, and it’s 24 kilometres from this stunning home.

Fenced Property

With the heather-bruised hills of Perthshire around you, this Grand Designs-style home puts you amid munros, riverside paths and enchanting forest walks. The charming town of Aberfeldy is a five-minute drive away, or an hour-long walk along the river path – perfect for hounds. The lofty, open lounge caught our eye inside with a modern woodburning stove in the centre for chilly evenings. The kitchen is a dream with a range-style cooker and everything you need (even some things you don’t, like a warming drawer) for self-catering. Those bringing the dogs will appreciate the fenced-in garden and kids can hang out in the garage outside with its ping pong table.

If you want to try and spot the ever-elusive Loch Ness Monster, this old stone clergy house that has sat on the banks of the famed body of water for over a century-and-a-half lets you do so in the utmost comfort. Inside, the rooms are filled with varnished wood furnishings, boldly printed rugs and roaring fireplaces — so you can look out the windows at the loch without feeling cold in the slightest. Other noble flourishes come in the shape of the four-poster beds and the two deep claw-footed bathtubs. There's even a small garden out the back, but you're hardly short of beautiful outdoor attractions around these parts. Urquhart Castle is a fifteen-minute drive away, while Dores Beach can be reached in twenty minutes in case you're in the mood for a bracing wild swim. Although the address feels both rural and secluded, the town centre of Inverness only takes seventeen minutes to reach in the car, too.

Member of the Clergy

Hot Tub

Anyone looking to get away from it all and embrace the magic of nature, will love this little cabin. Set within the Cairngorms National Park, you’ll be treated to serene views across the surrounding woodland. There is also a terrace with a hot tub and a barbecue – making it easy to soak up the beauty of this unique setting. Inside, there’s a wood burning stove, dressing gowns and all the essentials you could need for a relaxing break. Adventure lovers will also appreciate the close proximity to the mountain trails and ski runs of Aviemore – just a short drive away. 

Woodland Serenity

Step-Free Access

Set within a Victorian villa, this Clan Fraser inspired apartment is anything but twee. Instead, the place is fresh and contemporary, with subtle nods of tartan among the swanky finishes. The living space is the heart of the home, with rich blues and brushed gold adding an opulent flourish. There’s a dining table for home-cooked haggis, neeps and tatties and a gorgeous velvet sofa for reclining with a snifter of Scotch. Just when you thought it couldn’t be plusher, 800 thread count Egyptian cotton sheets dress impossibly comfortable beds. And that’s without mentioning the freestanding copper tub in the first bedroom. Outside, a tidy patio lets you make the most of sunny days – especially when accompanied with treats from the nearby bakery. After a five-minute stroll to the picturesque River Ness, cross the bridge into the heart of Inverness for the red sandstone castle, Victorian Market and an impressive selection of bars and restaurants.

Highland Heart

Up this far north, it’s untamed Scottish Highlands at its finest. This stone cottage blends in perfectly with the wild countryside around it and there’s a lockable shed to store bikes, kayaks and outdoor adventure equipment so you can make the most of the lochs, rivers and woodlands on your doorstep. The town of Forres is a ten-minute drive away when you need to stock up. The private garden looks out over the rolling hills of the estate this home is set in, which has been owned by the same family since 1738. Inside, you’ll find the perfect blend of rustic cottage charm and modern convenience. The wood-burning stove set in the old hearth is pure tradition, while the kitchen has every appliance and crockery you need for self-catering. If the weather is fine, choose to dine outside on the patio. A world away from the city, the only traffic you’ll get here is the odd pine marten or roe deer passing through the orchard. 

Rob Roy

EV Charger

Situated right on the banks of Uig Bay, this cosy homestead is the perfect spot to recharge. The views across the water are second-to-none, and you'll be able to relish in them whether you're gathered around the picnic table or lounging on the couch. Wake up each morning to the sun glistening off the bay, then pad into the country-style kitchen for a lazy breakfast and spot of tea. Afternoons are best spent relaxing in the garden, sipping Pimm's and watching the boats float by. When evening arrives, head inside for a delicious dinner, followed by a movie night in front of the crackling log burner. 

Uig is an absolute dream for walkers – there's a myriad of trails and routes to suit all different levels, ranging from leisurely strolls around the village to treks across the Trotternish Ridge. Castle Ewen (six-minute drive), The Fairy Glen (eight minutes by car) and the Rha Waterfalls (walkable in twenty) are all must-visits, but for a slower pace, why not relax with a local ale at The Isle Of Skye Brewing Company (ten minutes on foot), which overlooks the sea.

Stepping into this village home is like stepping onto the pages of a romantic novel. A moody medley of forest green and rust-red velvet sofas in the living room whisper of days gone by – the picture completed by a wood-burner set in an old fireplace carved with celtic twists. In the parlour, an upright piano awaits for someone to compose a song inspired by heather-bruised hills and craggy mountain passes. Or, perhaps choose something from the book collection and settle into a wing-backed armchair. Bedrooms are packed with paperbacks to find your next indulgent read, perhaps while soaking in the claw-footed tub of the master bathroom. Contrary to the rest of the home, the kitchen is bright and airy, but an exposed stone wall still suggests the building’s history. A welcome hamper of bubbly, tea, coffee and toiletries awaits your arrival. Spend the evening outside, gathered around the fire pit, or watching for shooting stars from the comfy sofas on the deck. The peaceful village of Carrbridge has a grocery shop and a handful of cosy pubs. You’re in the Cairngorms National Park here, so you may want to lace up those walking boots and bag some munros, or head to Speyside and sample some of the world-famous whisky distilleries. 

A Highland Romance

Whether you’re in search of a Highland adventure or a relaxing retreat, this contemporary lodge makes it easy to enjoy it all. Surrounded by idyllic countryside, you can enjoy the views from the garden – which also features a children’s play area. Inside, the rooms are perfect for families with plenty of socialising space as well as games, books and a baby grand piano for your entertainment. There’s a ground-floor bedroom for guests with reduced mobility and all of the bedrooms come with en-suite bathrooms. Outside, it’s just a short drive to Loch Ness and the nearest amenities in Drumnadrochit.


Beyond Pines

You’ll really feel like you’ve escaped to the county at this wooden cabin in the Scottish Highlands. Nestled near a quiet stream on a 400-acre estate, the home boasts views across the Strathglass Valley from the balcony – best enjoyed while relaxing in the hammock. And with no TV or wi-fi, there’ll be nothing to distract you from your stunning surroundings. Though compact, the cosy cabin has everything you’ll need, including a fully-equipped kitchen, large sofa, and wood-burner. The bed is on a mezzanine level accessed via a ladder, so it won’t suit everyone, but the star-gazing roof window will make the climb up worth it. When you’re ready to explore, you’ll find waterfalls nearby, and Loch Ness a thirty-minute drive away.

Highland Falls

Located just moments from the mythical Loch Ness, this cosy cottage is the country retreat you've been dreaming of. Fire up the wood-burning stove when you arrive and curl up for a memorable weekend in one of the UK's most beautiful landscapes.

The two-person home sits in the charming village of Drumnadrochit, where there are plenty of scenic walks and traditional pubs for you to enjoy. Urquhart Woods is five minutes from your front door, while in half an hour you can reach the crumbling castle that overlooks the lake. Inverness if just thirty minutes up the road, if you feel like breaking up the quiet time with an afternoon in Scotland's northernmost city. 

When you're not exploring, your cottage provides a tranquil haven that's designed for lazy mornings and relaxing evenings. Stick your favourite Netflix show on the TV as you wake up in the plush king-sized bed, and crack open the window so you can listen to the local birdsong. The kitchen is perfect for whipping up quick bites to enjoy at the breakfast bar – come Sunday, the nearest spot for a roast is just across the road.

In the heart of the Highlands, this apartment is perfect for a retreat. Housed in a converted Benedictine monastery, you’ll be surrounded by 20 acres of gardens on the shores of Loch Ness. The home exudes Scottish hunting lodge vibes, with brown leather sofas and antler chandeliers in the living room, and tartan prints in the bedrooms. Spend memorable days exploring the lush outdoors – there’s a shared tennis court, communal swimming pool, orchard, cricket pitch, an adventure playground for kids, and even a life-sized chess set. Though it's all shared with other guests, that doesn't put a damper on the fun. And in the evenings play some billiards in the communal games room, where velvet purple furnishings and tall stained-glass windows make for a downright royal space.

Heart Of The Highlands

In a former life, this cottage was home to railway workers back in the early 1900s. Since then, it's had a complete transformation into a romantic hideaway, while still retaining much of its traditional charm. The kitchen echoes this home's industrial past, with polished concrete worktops and burr elm shelving giving it a historic feel, while the Edwardian table is a fantastic place to gather and share a homemade meal. Outside, you'll find a private garden and wooden deck, where you can fire up the barbecue and enjoy an alfresco feast as you gaze over the Insh Marshes across to the incredible landscapes of the Cairngorms National Park. Don't forget your binoculars, because you also have a great view of both the nearby RSPB bird reserve and the train line – both birdwatchers and trainspotters will be delighted. There are several paths of varying difficulty close by, meaning that whether you want an invigorating hike or a gentle stroll, there's a trail to suit you. Explore the wild landscapes from rivers to moors, mountains to lochs, before returning to the welcoming glow of the wood-burning stove, and perhaps a wee dram of whisky. 

Cairngorm Charm

Modern furnishings offset the gothic architecture and stonework at this bright apartment. Large cathedral-style windows and an open-plan living and dining area make the most of the natural light. At the same time, accents of tartan, wall-mounted antlers and a green velvet sofa make the home feel like a charming Scottish hunting lodge. Guests will have access to all the on-site facilities, including tennis courts, a heated swimming pool, and a spa. Not to mention the shared lounge, where stained glass windows cast filtered light onto red walls and purple velvet furnishings to provide a stunning backdrop to a game of billiards. Hugging the shores of Loch Ness and set on twenty acres of private gardens, you’re ideally located to explore the stunning landscapes of the Highlands.

Only a stone’s throw away from Little Loch Broom, this breathtaking home in the Scottish highlands is an absolute celebration of peace and tranquillity. Embrace the seclusion as you sit out early morning, admiring the views with a cup of freshly-brewed coffee. Meals can also be taken out on the little picnic-style bench, because believe us when we say, you’re going to want as much time as possible here enjoying the magic of simply being present in the space. 

Watch mist dissipate, clouds roll across the sky to cast shadows on the loch, and when the infamous Scottish weather drives you inside, well, you’ll still have floor-to-ceiling windows through which to keep that connection with the rugged beauty outside. 

With marble, wood, texture, and a lot of detail, this home not only feels modern, but it somehow retains the charm of a log cabin, albeit more luxurious, and the warmth that comes with it, making this feel like a home away from home. Spend wet days stretched out on the sofa with cocoa in hand, or take full advantage of the board games on offer here and have yourself a bit of friendly competition. 

When the rest of the group wander off to do their own thing after a lunch enjoyed at the heavy timber dining table – we suggest sourdough topped with black pudding, cherry tomatoes, vinegar and black pepper – you can claim the window bench for a reading nook or retreat upstairs for a luxurious bubble bath with views of the loch. 

Take advantage of sunny days by exploring the area and find the Ardessie Falls only a short walk away. Stop off at the pancake tearoom or drive about fifteen minutes away to dine at the Ocean View Hotel. One of Scotaland’s famous hidden beaches, Gunaird Bay, is also at the end of a fifteen-minute drive.

If you’re fond of the finer things in life, this traditionally-styled apartment with views over Loch Ness is a winner. Set in a Grade A-listed, gorgeously Gothic former monastery, there are high ceilings, big windows and oak panels to marvel at. Period pieces mix with modern luxuries — the underfloor heating in the bathrooms is very welcome during the Scottish winter — to create a refined but relaxed home. We have our eye on the cosy tartan armchair, with possibly the best view in the house. We’re sure you’ll find yourself sitting there, watching the light change over the loch. You’ll be staying on a luxury estate with some fabulous facilities available upon request — a swimming pool, sauna, gym, tennis court, archery, croquet and, of course, a giant chessboard. There’s a restaurant on-site, but you’re also just minutes from the centre of the pretty village of Fort Augustus, where you’ll find pubs and restaurants and a local supermarket, as well as a 9-hole golf course and some beautiful walks. 

Good Habits

If you're after a contemporary Highlands hideaway, this Ullapool home ticks all the boxes. Perched on a hill overlooking Loch Broom, the large deck provides the ideal vantage point to soak up the views. The first-floor living area also makes the most of the scenery, with A-frame windows framing the panoramas perfectly. Five bedrooms – three of which are en-suite – guarantee there's more than enough room for the whole brood. Location-wise, you couldn't ask for better. Whether you're keen on hiking, kayaking, or taking it easy, there's something here for everyone.

Brae & Broom

This charming home can be found just off the start of the North Coast 500 route. It’s just a five-minute drive from the centre of Wick and within thirty minutes of the Castle of Mey, John O’Groats, and Duncansby Stacks – you won’t be short of things to see and do during your stay. In addition to a perfect location and excellent rural views, this historic cottage offers every comfort you could ask for – many of the soft furnishings have been lovingly handmade by the homeowner. 

Northern Charm Cottage

Meeting / Conference Rooms

Based in the Alladale Wilderness Reserve, this magnificent estate is the perfect place for an idyllic country getaway. Oak wooden panelings, tartan-inspired textiles, and traditional wood-burning fireplaces create a cosy, rustic interior. Classical paintings and exquisite ornaments maintain the historical character of the manor. The rouge formal dining room is the perfect setting for an elegant Highlands dinner party, while the upstairs bedrooms have plush, deluxe beds promising restful nights. The estate includes a professional conference room fitted with a modern projector-system, as well as a well-equipped gym. With all that said, the true beauty of the estate lies on the grounds. Nestled in the glorious Highlands, you’ll have uninterrupted views of Scotland’s natural wonders.

This eighteenth-century former hunting lodge sits within the 14,500-acre Glenshiel Estate filled with the most quintessentially Scottish countryside — mountains, rivers, forests, the lot. The host will help you make the most of this wonderful landscape by helping to arrange activities, such as fishing, foraging, pony treks and hikes, or cookery classes and yoga if you prefer to stay inside.

Whatever you choose to do, you can look forward to long evenings in a home designed primarily for cosiness. As well as three open fires for warming up cold hands, guests can also take advantage of the country-style kitchen with an Aga and a selection of rolltop bathtubs. If you really don't feel like lifting a finger during your stay, there's a team of chefs that can arrange the week's menu using locally foraged ingredients and housekeepers to cater to every whim.

When the sun makes an appearance — or you're feeling suitably warmed up after a dram or two — there's a hot tub in the garden, which also has children's play equipment and a barbecue. The Isle of Skye sits twenty minutes' drive away if you fancy a day trip, too.

Situated in former St Andrew’s Chapel, this unique home retains many of its original gothic features. Stained glass windows depicting Scottish saints let the sun shine through, casting rainbows of light. The carved stone columns and vaulted Cathedral-style ceiling have been incorporated into the design, while gilded mirrors and antique pieces are woven seamlessly with modern furnishings in the living and dining area. The master bedroom is on a mezzanine level, overlooking the living room where you can watch the light change through the stained glass windows throughout the day. Ideally located to explore the outdoors, you’ll be on 20 acres of private gardens – with tennis courts, a swimming pool, an orchard and even a giant chess set spread across the complex. This former fort, monastery and abbey on the shores of Loch Ness is now a self-contained holiday complex, with easy access to the wild Highland countryside, boat trips on the loch and village pubs. 

Saints Go Marching

Just a hop, skip and a jump away from the banks of Loch Ness, this delightful homestead is just the ticket for a rural getaway in the Highlands. Days here are best spent outdoors, whether you're trekking through the dense Urquhart Bay Woods, exploring the ruins of Urquhart Castle or hiking to the top of Meall Fuar-mhonaidh for gorgeous views of the water. 

Treat yourself after a long walk at the pubs and cafes in Drumnadrochit, or if you prefer a homecooked meal, head home and rustle up something tasty in the roomy kitchen. With plenty of crockery, cookware and counter space, you'll have everything you need to show off your culinary skills. Take a load off in the cosy lounge, where squishy leather sofas beckon after a ramble through the countryside. Chill out with a movie or a good book – there's a small selection of both – before sprawling out on the comfortable beds. But if you can't get enough of the fresh air, pour yourself a glass of wine and watch the sun go down on the small patio, basking in the peaceful scenery of the Highlands.

Nessie's Place

Smart TV

Just outside the village of Muir of Ord, this cosy cottage is surrounded by the Scottish Highlands. If outdoor adventures are on the cards, you're well-placed for them – Loch Ness, Glen Affric, and Inverness are all within driving distance. Located on a working farm, you can expect tractors, livestock, and peaceful country views here. Make a beeline for the garden on summer days – it's the perfect spot to enjoy a Scotch on the rocks as the sun goes down. Inside, the wood-burning stove has cosy evenings written all over it. Since it's all on one level, it's especially ideal for those who struggle with stairs.

Highland Embers

A five-minute walk from the shores of Loch Alvie, this traditional Scottish cottage sits within the Cairngorms National Park. Walking trails and towering munros are on your doorstep and the outdoor activity haven of Aviemore is just a five-minute drive away. The exterior of this cottage is as traditional as it gets, with a white-stone facade and slate-grey roof like the crofters’ cottages of old. It gets a little more modern inside with comfy leather sofas and mod-cons in the kitchen, but the brass bedframes, free-standing bathtub and crackling wood-burning in the living room are all about that cottagecore aesthetic. Slide open the glass doors in the dining area and step out onto the secluded back patio where there’s alfresco dining for sunny days and a fire pit for chilly nights.

Highland Paradise

Nestled on the edge of the picturesque fishing village of Avoch, this delightful bungalow is a great choice of base for a Scottish escape. The home boasts wonderful views of the Moray Firth and the Scottish Highlands – you can even occasionally spot seals and dolphins from the garden. There’s a patio with a table and chairs outside, ideal for your morning cuppa or for alfresco fish and chips on a dry day. You’ll be able to visit the nearby historical town of Fortrose, and the bungalow is also a super starting point for exploring the Highlands. 

Majestic Moray

Set amid the beautiful Scottish countryside, surrounded by woodland and rolling hills – this home has a wonderful location. Situated in the village of Daviot, explore nearby Littlemill and Loch Ness, or head into Inverness for a taste of Highland culture. We love the views from this home’s garden, while the kids will particularly adore the fortress-themed play area. You can enjoy the vistas from inside this bright and modern single-storey home too. This family abode is the perfect Scottish retreat.
