A really enjoyable place to stay if you’re planning on bagging a few munros or to enjoy a walk in the Scottish countryside. Golden eagles and pine martens, red deer can all be seen from Coulags Croft. All you would expect for holiday accommodation is provided.A strong 10/10 from me.

Cottage as referenced on cottages.com except for there being no CD player. Very cosy and warm with everything you would need. Unfortunately there was an issue with the water whilst we were there which stopped it getting a better review.Owner was very helpful and available for queries and had welcome items there which is always a nice touch.
