Cosy Garden Cottage w/ hot tub, castle & sea views
This stylish, charming cottage is completely unique, with the old Redcastle ruin as a backdrop & views of the Beauly Firth. An idyllic stream runs through the garden, and the cottage features a wood-fired hot tub for relaxing evenings. Often compared to the famous cottage from the film The Holiday, it’s the perfect Highland retreat. Located in the sleepy hamlet of Milton of Redcastle, just 20 mins from Inverness Airport, it’s ideal for unwinding after exploring the coast, castles & countryside.
