Barn accommodation in Highland Council

The Briar Barn is on a gorgeous property and the hosts were very welcoming. It’s a great location to explore the highlands and Loch Ness and do a day trip to Isle of Skye. The accommodation was perfect for a family of 4 and would definitely return!

Frances and Angus gave us a very warm welcome to their cosy, immaculate and well-equipped cottage. It is close to their home and alongside a bubbling stream, set in incredible gardens. We were recommended walks and given home grown produce. They made our stay in the Loch Tay area comfortable and relaxing. Thank you Frances and Angus!

Spend 4 nights at this place, and everything was perfect, house itslef is wonderful place to relax. Moreover, host of this house is very kind and responsive.

we enjoyed the amount of space we had and thought that the house was good value for money. The house was unusual and aesthetically pleasing - this added to our enjoyment of the place. We appreciated that there was a good dishwasher and a wide range of plates and cups. It was good that we had so many books on the bookshelves. We both really enjoyed the deep bath. We were pleased that there was an enclosed area outside where we could play with our dog. We had very tasty fish and chips one night from the shop in Nairn High street which is next to a Chinese take away. Nairn beach was lovely and spacious.

A great spot in a pastoral setting with good value for the money. The only thing I wish they had was WiFi but they were upfront that there wasn’t any before we booked. We had a couple of needs and they went above and beyond to get what we needed. Great communication. Will come back.

Great location for exploring Lewis, only about 3 miles from stornaway. Garage and shop close by. Lovely, warm and cosy accommodation. Friendly host. I would reccommend this accommodation.

Alastair and Helen provided a 5 star experience for a countryside experience. The cottage was exactly as described. Cozy and comfortable, providing all the amenities required for a relaxing time away. Every attention to detail was made from cozy blankets to local tableware pottery. There was ample space for my dog to wander about and a lovely peaceful walk up through the croft. Tigh Dubh is sincerely a must stay and its accessibility to attractions is excellent. I would certainly rate this cottage as one of my favourite places

We loved the Bothy and our black lab Maisie felt right at home too. Everything was perfect for our five night stay-from the beautiful sitting room, comfy bed (great sleeps) to the workable kitchen. Good walks and views over the Cromarty Firth; it’s very peaceful and Cromarty town is lovely with interesting independent shops, a pottery, restaurant and Fishertown pub and eatery with beer garden. We were lucky with good weather too! There is a wonderful custom built cinema and we caught the Nigg ferry to meet a friend in Tain. Thank you Fiona and Matt - a lovely stay - we’re hooked and will return!

Nice and peaceful. A car is required to get around the area. Juliet was kind and communicative. We loved our time in the Highlands and in Fyrish View. Plenty to do in the area - Cromarty was a lovely little seaside town and Dingwall was easy to get to for shopping and railway links. We would stay again.

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. The cottage itself was perfect. An upside house which was even better than the photos suggested. It was comfortable and well kitted out. The kitchen and lounge set up was excellent. The bedrooms and bathrooms were ideal for our party. The farm was an amazing place - peacocks, geese, ducks and hens wandering around the pond and grounds. We loved the bistro and shop. They added an extra and welcome dimension to our stay. The whole experience could not be faulted.

A fantastic stay in peaceful surroundings. A lovely, cozy home with super comfy sofas in the lounge to crash onto after a day of walking. Kitchen has everything you’d need, and we opted to stay in and cook as a result. Great location too, with a fantastic selection of restaurants just a short drive away.

We had a truly wonderful stay at this beautifully renovated cottage in Aberfeldy. The place was spotlessly clean and thoughtfully designed, with modern appliances and every amenity you could possibly need. The kitchen was especially well-equipped, making it easy and enjoyable to cook during our stay. The surroundings were absolutely stunning — peaceful farmland, open fields with horses, friendly cat, and all the charm of the Aberfeldy area just minutes away. It was the perfect base to explore the region and enjoy the tranquillity of the countryside.

Really enjoyed our stay at the Hayloft - the place was beautifully presented, clean and very well equipped. Lynne and Paul welcomed us warmly and we had everything we could ever need for a peaceful long weekend away. It was the small touches that really made it a perfect hideaway, with easy access to Aviemore. 5 stars all round, and would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a cosy space to stay.

This place was stunning. The interior is clean, modern and decorated tastefully. The exterior areas reflected the interior, finished off with a hot tub (which was cleaned daily) and beautiful views of the countryside and Inverness! It was nice to see the working farm and animals in the distance, this was all happening on the other side of the land therefore caused no interruption to our peaceful stay. The accommodation is surrounded by beautiful countryside and just a short distance from Inverness and Loch Ness which we found easily. The hosts were fantastic, there if we needed anything but left us to enjoy our holiday. We will definitely revisit!!

Absolutely stunning! It's the kind of place at which you wish for a rainy day just so you have the excuse you need not to explore the amazing surroundings, but to stay in and cozy up on the super comfy couch. The bed is the most comfortable we ever slept in in an Airbnb, the kitchen well equipped, and even though you are super secluded the Cafe of the castle is just around the corner. We would love to come back anytime.

We had lovely week at the cottage, it was very comfortable, extremely dog friendly and in a lovely location. Loads to do in the area, beach and forest dog walk galore. Elgin is only 10 minutes away and has a number of large supermarkets and shops. Very enjoyable.

Simpathetically converted malt house in a peaceful setting. Good sized house with absolutely brilliant garden that had plenty space for the dogs to run around. Comfy beds with fresh linen, towels, robes and slippers. Well stocked kitchen with thoughtful welcome gift. Cozy lounge with plenty logs for the burner. Great little study space for those that still have to do a bit of work. Hot tub clean with non-slip rubber mats around it. Unfortunately, more careful attention needed from cleaning team in places, which was disappointing - for the money, perfection expected. Warning for fellow townies - go less than walking pace along the track to prevent the underside of your car getting scraped, unless you drive a land rover. Also, the bins are located at the end of the road, so stinky rubbish needs to go in the car - too far to carry it. We're not precious about our car but our son flatly refused to take it in his new car!

This is hands down the best airbnb my family has stayed at. ..and we have stayed at a lot. This place is magical and absolutely stunning. Our 4 kids had so much fun on the property. We made memories that will last a lifetime here. Beautiful home....very comfortable beds...great kitchen. We can't thank you enough for hosting us and will recommend your place to everyone who is planning a trip to Scotland!

A really great space to relax in with everything we needed. Aileen was lovely and made us feel so welcome. Not far from Skye and so many beautiful places to drive or walk to. My one tip, if you decide to drive over the Applecross pass take care as it’s a white knuckle drive!!!

This was our second trip to The Barn on Skye. We dreamt about coming back as soon as we left last year. We actually planned our entire stay around the cottage availability. The views and location are spectacular- out of a dream. And you’re located right along Brothers Point trail so it’s amazingly convenient. The cottage is well equipped and very comfortable. We stayed with our two children ages 2 and 8 and they loved it as well. We look forward to hopefully staying again next year and making it a tradition for our annual trips to Scotland!! Thank you again for a spectacular stay and memories!!

Fantastic view around home! Very good condition in house!

An amazing place to stay! Monica was so welcoming and friendly. She baked us the most gorgeous sour dough bread. The byre was really comfortable and peaceful and the views are to die for. Will definitely come back! Thank you Monica and Mark for a lovely stay.
