A beautiful, spacious and clean cottage with everything you could possibly need. The rooms were big and wonderfully warm. It had one of the best showers with lots of lovely hot water. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely rebook. Brora in winter is still lovely, just a bit quieter than the summer. The windswept beaches were fantastic for long walks with our dogs and the sound of the sea from the back garden and at the front of the cottage was so wonderful. We were very sad to leave.

A wonderful stay at Middledrift cottage. Very clean and is really well equipped. Quiet area and comfy beds, so a great night's sleep. The cottage is so warm and needs very little heating. Parking is on the road opposite, in the cottage own parking area. There is a garden beyond the park area for cottage residents. This overlooks the vast dunes. Hosts are very helpful and friendly. Clyne Kitchen eatery and heritage centre in Brora is interesting and food is good. A large Coop is near for shopping. Visit to John O Groats is a must. About 1hr 20 minutes drive. There are plenty of restaurants there. Traveling South is Dornoch with its wonderful cathedral. Nearby Tain has plenty of cafes and several supermarkets. Al in all, a great stay in Brora.We'll definitely visit this cottage again.
