Not the first time we've stayed here and won't be the last. The location is perfect for a quiet relaxing break with amazing views (watch out for seals, otters and stags going past) and plenty of scenic walks from the doorstep.
A break at Kingairloch is like no other. It is so peaceful you are able to totally relax and unwind. With so many beautiful walks on the Estate and the lovely restaurant we had absolutely no reason to leave. We arrived for a long weekend on Friday and didn't leave the Estate until Monday. The cottages was cosy and comfortable and even the heavy rain couldn't spoil our weekend. The kitchen was extremely well equipped and the view from the dining table is stunning. Perfect spot in the morning with a coffee. This was our 2nd break to Kingairloch and we are already planning our thi...more
This is our second trip to Kingairloch, and not our last. We stayed in Elastic cottage last time. We found it had a better view, but in our eyes (and that is purely subjective), we thought Pier was just as comfortable, but had a nicer layout (in particular the kitchen is a lot more functional). A bit quiet for wildlife this year, but we managed to see some otters. Despite 3 days of wind and rain, we never got bored, and relaxed inside.
This is the third visit to Sea view ,didn't disappoint . Arrived in half force rain at night,frightened the cows. We were soon cost and warm, an update to the furniture would be nice. Now in later years my desire for a nap is more important but the dates or chair and not conducive to that nap in comfortable higher backed furniture. Other than this excellent time and totally relaxing. Well done Kingairloch Estate another wonderful stay.
Our first visit to The Old Post Office, our tenth to Kingairloch. This property is hidden away but gives you the best views and encounters with wildlife. We had stags rutting on the lawn, birds galore feeding and the regular pine marten in the evening. We had a box of veg from the garden all excellent in flavour! We thoroughly enjoyed exploring the walks on the estate, different ones everyday. Even on the rainy day a wet and windy walk followed by the log fire lit was bliss! One trip made into Strontian to the shop otherwise we spent all week around the estate.
Our 6th Holiday on the estate and it's still amazing. The staff are very helpful and friendly, responding to any issue or question that may arise quickly and efficiently. We asked for somebody to show us parts of the estate we can not reach on our own and John took us for a drive, his knowledge of the area was excellent. The Steadings is now in need of a good re-condition, but it is such a well used cottage that ths is only to be expected (ceiling in hall way, broken power point, shower control). It is however well stocked in the kitchen and has a range of books / puzzles. As a disabled c...more
We first visited Curlew at Kingairloch in May and had a superb stay . We wanted to see what it was like in winter and came back in November. We were not disappointed . This is a well equipped charming cottage in a fantastic location on the estate . Plenty of wildlife around including a stag that was almost posing for a picture . Outstanding area for scenery . The cottage is warm , homely and well equipped for up to 5 people . Good heating (important for a winter stay) . The estate staff were very helpful accommodating us . We have stayed on quite a few estates and country cottages and I can te...more
We have had a perfect 2 weeks on the Kingairloch Estate. The wildlife entertained us nearly every night, pine martins enjoying their peanut and jam sandwiches. The red stags amblerling around the cottages. The sea eagles soaring way above the cottage, it has been amazing. The staff are so welcoming, and friendly. The meals we had at the boat house were fabulous, well worth a visit. Thank you team Kingairloch you are all doing a fabulous job! We have already booked for next year.
