Located on an elevated position above the River Beauly, Fern Cottage provides an idyllic retreat amongst some of the Highland’s most spectacular scenery. Nested in the midst of three of the most beautiful Scottish Glens - Glen Affric, Glen Cannich and Glen Strathfarrar – you will be on the doorstep to some of the wilder and most remote areas of Scotland whilst still within easy reach of some popular tourist destinations such as Loch Ness.
Fern Cottage is one of two cottages (approx. 60 metres apart) set within 3 acres of secluded woodland and gardens. Fern Cottage is a bright, modern cottage for the accommodation of 2 people. Inside the double height ceiling, open plan layout and mezzanine floor create a spacious feel while skylights allow sunlight to flood in and create a wonderful, bright place to stay for your holiday. Outside it has its own private patio area where you can sit and watch a beautiful sunset or even have a barbecue (weather permitting).
At night you can use the array of small theatre lights controlled by dimmer switches to give you just the right atmosphere for a romantic evening in front of the log burning stove.
Fern Cottage is approximately 30 metres away from the private car-park and is reached by a footpath winding up the hill to the cottage's door.
Once here you can either retreat from it all and enjoy the tranquil magic of this place or pursue one of the many outdoor activities that the area is renowned for, such as hill-walking, fishing, cycling or pony trekking. So whether you are looking for a special place to ‘get away from it all’ or you want to explore the best of the Highlands, our cottages offer an ideal spot for your holiday.
