Monthly Rentals in Cabrach

Islas Cottage offered a lovely cosy space for our grooms accommodation for our wedding. Forbes was incredibly friendly and proactive in getting in touch beforehand, there was a really lovely care package of some essentials in the kitchen and some nice sweet treats too! The property was clean and well appointed, we would come back again!

We had a short but very enjoyable stay in the 'Cooshed' - I'm normally a bit wary about places which are essentially in someone's garden, but it never felt like we were intruding on the hosts (who have a lovely house and garden). The fit and finish is great, the decor is very tasteful and it is very well-equipped. The half-size dishwasher was a real bonus, very useful to have a washing machine available too. It wasn't really cold enough to 'need' the woodburner but it seemed rude not to fire it up - I did see sub-zero temperatures forecast for one of the nights we were there! I thought the ladder up to the bed might be a pain, but it's fine - good thought to provide a subtle night-light downstairs. We managed to find some good walking and running routes straight from the property - the forestry plantation up behind is a bit bleak and spooky (even with red squirrels), but along the River Don and up Ben Newe before breakfast on a sunny day was a real highlight! Definitely recommended.

Had a great long term stay while relocating. Claire was a lovely host and gave us some great advice about the area. The apartment was spotless and homely.

Jake's place is one of the most authentic, true back to earth places you will ever visit. Jake is a lovely charming man with great stories and great local knowledge, and without a doubt the most hospitable host I have ever had the pleasure to meet - even sharing fresh herbs and vegetables from his garden and supplies from his own home. the site is off grid so no electricity but this is the last thing you'll worry about when your out there, the most glorious scenery in Britain and the most peaceful, private area to enjoy the beautiful views, smells and sounds campfires, birdsong, companionship and much much more - the area surrounding is plentiful with beautiful abandoned and active castles, houses, distillerys aswell as endless amazing little villages and towns, taint pubs/cafes/restaurants and shops and sights a plenty. 500 stars out of 5 couldn't reccomend this more, you must experience this, honestly, trust me.
