Welcome to Highland Snug

Whether you are seeking forest gorge walks, coastal wildlife watching, or a quiet highland retreat, the cottage feels like home from the moment you arrive.

With walks straight from the doorstep and an enclosed rear garden for up to two dogs, it is ideal for couples — or two friends travelling together, as the lounge's Snuggles armchair converts into a separate single bed on request.
