The quaint crofter's cottage was a perfect home-base for exploring the Black Isle, Inverness, and Loch Ness. We enjoyed relaxing after our daily explorations of the area and cooking breakfast together in the mornings. Peaceful, happy times enjoyed by our family during our Highlands visit.

Beautiful Cottage

Modern and spaceious cottage on a nice little farm, very friendly host and cute dogs included. The living room is cozy and the kitchen was well equipped. We really enjoyed our stay. Aside from Loch Ness most points of interest are a bit further away so there is not too much to see around but the cottage totally makes up for that.

A Relaxing Stay

We spent 2 days at this property in the middle of our 2 week trip to Scotland. It was just what we needed as we were able to relax, cook some meals and still get out to see the sights in the area. The accommodation was very comfortable and did indeed feel like a home away from home. The friendly dogs and ponies were a great bonus!

Cozy cottage in perfect location.

We loved the cottage. It is perfectly situated to enjoy Inverness and drive around the loch. The place was clean, and we had everything we needed to cook. Plenty of hot water! We loved seeing the farm animals on the property.

Lovely cottage

This was a really great place. The owner is really nice and welcoming but not in your way. The property has ponies and very friendly dogs that you can interact with or not. The ponies enjoy carrots! The cottage is well equipped, comfortable and welcoming. It’s a great central location for exploring the area. Highly recommended.

A wonderful, cozy cottage

We spent Christmas in Oak Cottage and it could not have been a more wonderful stay. Veronica was a communicative and helpful host from the get go and really went the extra mile by putting up some Christmas decorations up for us before we arrived. The cottage is just a little bit down the road from Beauly, so it's easy to get to as long as you have a car. The cottage itself is spacious and well-equipped with everything you'd need. You can also say hello to the animals on Veronica's croft which was an extra treat! We wouldn't hesitate to book Oak Cottage again next time we're in the area.

Exceptional Cottage

We stayed for two nights, and wished we could stay for longer. The cottage is perfectly located between Loch Ness and Inverness, and is convenient to both. Veronica is an exceptional host, responsive and takes very good care of the property. We arrived to fresh eggs from the Veronica's hens nearby, and a fire set up ready to go. The photos online do not do this cottage justice. It was spotlessly clean, spacious, very well laid out and has comfortable beds. This property is perfect for families and couples. Things not shown in the listing which were a bonus; a big laundry room (great when you have been hiking or road tripping for a week) and fields with animals next door, plus another field for the kids to play around in. Thanks Veronica, we had the best stay in your cottage.

Lovely house

The house was lovely, warm and clean. The only let down for us is that it wasn't clear that the house is right next to a very busy main road. Us country folk are not used to hearing cars zooming past at all hours. However, it was a good location for being able to visit many places of interest and not too far from Inverness. Thank you for the fresh eggs they were delicious and a lovely touch, especially when you could see the providers scratching around in the field. Definately free range.

Very nice stay. Cold weather but warm welcome

There were four of us plus our dog and we had a wonderful stay at Veronica's Cottage, despite rain almost every day. Plenty of space, well equipped kitchen and of course wonderful surroundings. Veronica lives right next door and would have been available if we needed her. But as everything fitted and everything in the house was well explained, we didn't need to call on her. The dogs (Veronica has two) got on well - otherwise everything was prepared for them not to meet. You should have a car, even if the bus stop is not far away. Shopping is easy in Beauly (8 minutes) or you can drive to Inverness (25 minutes). We had to change our plans twice - but that was no problem. As I said, Veronica is very accommodating and a very good hostess.

About the host

Hosted by VERONICA TERVET

Host profile image
I was born and grew up on the property where the cottage sits. The cottage is where the original family home was, it was rebuilt 10 years ago. It is a passion of mine to share this beautiful area with people from all over and let them see what the Highlands has to offer.

Animals are a large part of my life and are all part of the family, come and feed the lambs, horses, hens, ducks and geese.

Red squirrels and woodpeckers can be seen in the woods beside the cottage. You can walk freely around the wood and enjoy the peace and quiet.
