Cottage vacation rentals in Elgol

Another long stay at Forge End has come to an end for my self and work colleague. Again a big thank you to Alea for accommodating us and looking after us over the past 13 weeks and during the booking process. Forge End has been a real home from home for us and has made a long period working away from home a really enjoyable. Your home in Applecross is real find for us and if/when we are required to visit Applecross you will be our first choice every time. Thank you again from both of us.

This garden cottage was straight out of a romantic fairytale! The gorgeous garden surrounding the cottage and the view of the water and misty rolling hills framed perfectly by a stone wall and ivy were just breathtaking (especially while sitting in the wood fire heated hot tub). The cottage itself was incredibly cozy. We had nearly gotten stranded on Islay with car issues and we weren’t even sure we’d get to enjoy this stop on our holiday. By the time we arrived, we were completely exhausted from the chaos of the previous 24 hours so this relaxing and welcoming space was exactly what we needed to decompress. ☺️ The cottage was well equipped and very clean! We had everything we needed and then some. Caroline was an exceptional host. She was remarkably responsive and lovely to interact with both prior to our stay (when we weren’t sure we’d be able to make it) and during our stay! Anyone with the opportunity to stay here, should absolutely do it! Thank you for everything, Caroline!!

Great little cottage with nice hot tub area. Was good as a base for exploring the Glencoe area

We absolutely loved our stay here!this place truly captured all the Scottish charm we were hoping for. From the cozy, stylish décor to the warm welcome touches like slippers and a thoughtful welcome pack, every detail made us feel so welcome. The kids were delighted by the three adorable chickens that roam freely around the garden and the selection of games! The bedding and towels were top quality—soft, fresh, and beautifully presented. We especially enjoyed the BBQ hut (perfect for the cooler evenings and to escape the midge!) and the wood fired hot tub was a huge hit for winding down after a day of exploring. unlimited logs were great and the handy log splitter it was great fun and added to the experience! The location was fantastic—peaceful, scenic, and a great base for getting around. A couple of minutes drive into the Village, the Castle and near the great cafes and restaurants like the Three Chimneys. This place is a perfect blend of character and comfort, highly recommend

I cant's sing enough praise of this place! It was the perfect, secluded, cute spot for us. we were welcomed with a basket full of local goodies, a "just married" banner as it was our honeymoon, just the cutest touches!! The hot tub was perfect after a long day of hikes. 3 nights wasn't enough here!! I would recommend this to anyone. A 45 minute drive to the main hikes in Skye, and just down the road from beaches and castles. The local lambs were an added bonus!!

We had a lovely stay at Chloe’s place in Fort William! The home was clean, cosy, and well-equipped for a comfortable stay. The deck area was a peaceful spot to relax and enjoy the surrounding nature. The check-in process was smooth, and the location was ideal—close enough to town yet quiet and scenic. Would definitely recommend this spot for anyone visiting the Highlands!

We absolutely loved our stay at Betty’s Lookout! Incredible place, with stunning views. Spent my 30th birthday here, and I couldn’t have imagined a better place. The only thing was the hot tub could have been a little bit hotter, but was still nice to soak in for a while!

This was one of the best places we have ever stayed at. Debbie was so nice and helpful, super easy to reach and very friendly. The house was beautiful. Exactly what you hope for, when booking a cottage in Scotland. the little walk through the field to the beach was just stunning itself, and just added the little extra charme to the place. We loved that we weren‘t in town and had a private and quiet space. Yet Fort William and the main sights are so quick and easy to reach. The house was super clean and very cozy. We felt right at home. The kitchen was also very spacious with everything you need to cook a nice meal at night. If we ever come back to Scotland we would definitely book with Debbie again. We had a great time.

Fiona and Richard were great hosts! Great communication, suggestions, and directions. The beds were comfy and house was clean. It was perfectly located in Broadford and close to Portree. Such beautiful views from the house! Would definitely recommend and stay again!

House it's very cosy, we felt like at home. Place is beautiful I've just wish we could stay longer...

Great location and stay for us. We decided to travel without our car on train and public transport and bikes. Very easy from Fort William with a bus stop right outside Lonalva. Distillery and Highland soap workshop within 5/10 minute walk for the rainy days! Also recommend the Highland cinema in Fort William. House perfect for what we needed and beds very comfortable. Ann and her husband very helpful so thank you very much! Not at all surprised there’s hardly any availability now for much of the summer!!

The cottage was adorable and the location absolutely beautiful! We spent some time on the beach soaking in the sunset over the water. Phil was a fantastic host - super attentive and informative. Wish we could’ve stayed longer!

peaceful location with an absolutely stunning view. the place was pristine, it felt like we were the first to stay there. Catherine was responsive and friendly. highly recommend, best airbnb we have stayed at!

We spent a very nice week in the vacation home. If you are looking for seclusion and tranquility, this is the place to be. The house is very modern, nicely decorated and we felt right at home. Our dogs enjoyed the fenced garden very much. Although dogs are allowed and blankets are also available for them, the house was very clean when we arrived. We can only recommend the property. But you should be aware that it is very remote. There are other houses around, but no real place or the like. On foot or by car you can reach great beaches, unfortunately we did not find real hiking trails, you usually walk along the road or through sheep pens (leash dogs!) A dream for a few days of togetherness and tranquility!

Amazing place, location and stay. Applecross is mindblowingly beautiful and Weavers is in a stunning setting. The views from the sun room are incredible. The house is lovely and has everything you need for a great holiday. There was an issue with cleaning on our arrival but Roger responded immediately to our concerns and I don’t think this is an ongoing problem or should affect anyone else’s decision to stay. All in all we had a brilliant holiday. Thank you.

Stephanie didn't promise too much. A lovely apartment: so cosy and comfy. Everything fits together. The furnishment is in the same color as the laundry, the plates fit to the cups. Incredible. From the bed you have also a view to the green as from the kitchen table. There is also a lovely sofa next to the oven, where you can sit by a fire after a long day. You have the opportunity to cook on a gas stove, there is a big fridge even with a freezer for tour own food, also a kettle and a toast machine is available. The bed is comfy, and you can sleep wonderful there, as it is peaceful and quiet. The dog is friendly and happy to cuddle and play. There are wine and jam to buy (selfmade) for a fair price and the appartment is very very clean. Kind of a fairy apartment. You have a view into the green (fits to the inside). Your car parked can enjoy the sea view, and no wishes were open. At least for us. We enjoyed it really and want to come back one day.

Joyce’s studio was a stunning place to stay. It’s near enough to local amenities and the key things to do on the Isle of Skye, whilst being off-grid for a private and special place to stay. The scenery is absolutely wonderful and the location is very quiet and idyllic. The space has been designed very well and we immediately felt at home. Very clean, great kitchen with all the required amenities and a good sized bathroom with a great shower. The bed was comfortable and lounge area was perfectly placed to look out over the loch. We would absolutely stay here again if ever back on the Isle of Skye.

A stunning location for this cottage. It was peaceful and has incredible views over the waters to the mountains. It was wonderful to see the tide come and go, we felt close to nature. The cottage was clean and well stocked with kitchen equipment. There are games and books and enough for wood for your first night there. Underfloor heating was lovely and the fire heated the house really well to the point I needed to open the door to cool down - which is great to know you won’t be cold when you’re up there at the end of Autumn! Having a bath while looking out in the views to the mountains felt like a luxury.

Fossil Cottage is an absolute gem! We loved our time there and cannot wait to go back. For us, it was all about the idyllic location, on top of which, the place is exactly as described: clean, comfortable and well equipped with everything you need. Despite being slightly off the beaten track, it is only a short distance off the main road hence conveniently placed for the amenities in Broadford or Kyle as well as for exploring the rest of this wonderful island. Our thanks to Fiona for being a great host, we hope to see you again before too long.

Skye is spectacular. Beautiful place with so much to see just by driving around. Things are very spread out and because of one lane roads it takes a bit of time to get places. Staying at Peter's in Torrin was gorgeous and absolutely worth the visit. Skye is quite expensive in general, so hard to gauge value since this was our first time to Skye, but it was absolutely worth it and with the walking nearby we would return in a heartbeat to Peter's place. Not much service in the area, so it was extremely helpful to have directions and information handy to get into the house and to the house itself. Highly recommend staying here.

My daughter traveled with me to explore the Highlands. After reading the reviews I thought the Marble Cottage could be a good fit for our travels. It was exactly as described. No surprises. Spotless! Anne and Donald were excellent hosts. The apartment is attached to the hosts' home but you have as much privacy as you want. They are both very warm and welcoming, and they spent time with us and made us aware of some less-well-known places on Skye. Our trip was enhanced by their recommendations. My only regret is that we could not spend more time in Skye. Broadford is a great place to launch explorations of the island, and retreat to a quiet place without leaving the island. The town also has a nice CoOp grocery store and several good restaurants. Reminder that the cottage is partially obscured from the road by a wooden shop closer to the highway, so we drove past it initially but quickly re-traced our steps and found the correct entrance. Just a wonderful experience overall.

We loved our 2 night stay in the Studio. The view was tranquil and serene, and the studio was beautifully decked out - immaculately clean and well equipped with everything you need. Neil & Carol were wonderful hosts, and we thank them for their hospitality. We will definitely recommend, and return ourselves!

We absolutely loved our cottage! Super comfortable and very clean. It is located in a calm place, but very close to Portree by car. Sarah was always available to help and we truly appreciate all the tips given, it was great

We had a fabulous week in this very comfortable and well equipped cottage. The peaceful sunny garden with beautiful views down to Loch Shiel was perfect. Violet and Iain were great hosts and we can thoroughly recommend this cottage.
