Lovely 2 storey family home built in 1811 is located in the quiet village of Evanton, 1/2 a mile off the A9. Plenty of space both inside and out for up 6 people. The property was updated in 2017 keeping its homely feel of warmth and relaxation for a perfect quiet stay.
Situated central to the village and on the NC500 route. Amenities within walking distance. Perfect location, 16 miles from the Highland Capital of Inverness. The village has the backdrop of the breathtaking heights of Ben Wyvis and is a perfect base for traveling further afield, returning to the warmth and comfort of this well-maintained home.

This was a lovely house in a picturesque area of the highlands. Perfect for our stay. It was 25 minutes from Inverness. We were able to see many of the beautiful sites in the highlands. Definitely worth the stay.

Beautiful village, spacious home

Donna was extremely responsive, going above and beyond by stopping by with dish soap, and shipping the shorts I left in a drawer (oops!). The place was perfect for my family and my mom--we all had the space we needed, and the walks suggested were just what we were looking for. Would not have discovered the Black Rock Gorge if not for staying here, and this is a memory we'll have forever. What an incredible place! Sweet town. Not a lot of places to eat, but we weren't there for that. Make sure to check out the community woods (friendly walkers in there) and The Storehouse. Perfect for exploring this region of the Highlands!

Great spot that is in a quiet town but still close to Inverness, Loch Ness, Dornoch, etc. Donna is a great host and left plenty of info about local restaurants, etc.. Would recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay in the area!

Ein sehr schönes Cottage in den Highlands

Das Haus ist mit allem ausgestattet, was das Herz begehrt. Parken vor dem Haus auf der Straße stellte nie ein Problem dar. Es parkte dort niemand vor dem Haus. Etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig ist, dass in keinem der Bäder eine Steckdose ist. Haarefönen stellt somit eine kleine Herausforderung dar.

Wunderbares Haus

Das Haus hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Es ist mit allem ausgestattet, was man braucht. Die Lage an der Straße hat uns erst skeptisch gemacht, der Verkehr ist aber erträglich und stört kaum. Alles ist sehr schön eingerichtet. Der große Garten ist wunderbar, bei Sonne (in Schottland leider nicht so oft) kann man hier wunderbar und windgeschützt liegen. Wir wären gerne länger geblieben, allein, es fehlte die Zeit.

Couldn't have asked for more

We as family of 5 adults had a great holiday here. Never felt away from home and overall experience of staying was just too good. The walk in the woods, lovely community around, amenities at just 30 seconds walk,scenic view just outside the town and much more makes it an ideal place to stay. Thank you Donna, you are a great person and wonderful host!
