Drumlea Cottage

Couples, small families and friends travelling with a dog will find Drumlea Cottage a straightforward base in the Scottish Highlands. Set on a working croft near Bonar Bridge, the whole property is yours alone. Two bedrooms sleep four—one double, one with twin singles—and there's a shower room on the ground floor, which means no stairs to manage with luggage or young children. The living room has a wood-burning stove, the kitchen is equipped for proper cooking, and a sun room provides extra space. One dog stays free, and there's parking for three cars on site.

The countryside around here draws people who want to fish the Kyle of Sutherland, paddle on Loch Migdale, or walk to the Falls of Shin. Dornoch and its beaches lie within reach by car. Indoors, essentials like heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and wi-fi are covered. A welcome pack is provided. Outside, a garden with sitting-out area and barbecue faces the views across rolling hills. The bike store is useful if you're exploring on two wheels. The cottage sits on a working farm, so expect a rural setting with all that brings—the quiet is genuine, though you're sharing the landscape with livestock.
