Amazing & helpful staff during booking & stay. The cottage is in an excellent location for Strathcarron hills (we were a group of Hillwalkers). The cottage was well equipped & very comfortable with stunning views from sitting room.

We had great customer service and communication from My Favourite Cottage and the owners of Stag Lodge throughout our booking and before our arrival. Also from Matthew, the Estate Keeper, on all the estate sporting activities prior to our visit.

Matthew and Becky were both great and made us feel very welcome from the moment we arrived until we departed.

The cottage is in a perfect location to explore the north of Scotland, which is so beautiful. Having Eliean Donan Castle, Plockton Village and Attadale Gardens all on your doorstep is amazing! We also visited Dunrobin Castle which was really interesting. The museum there is fascinating. It unfortunately rained on the way home from there so we didn’t walk along the beach but we still had an icecream in the car, true Brit style! The beach looked really good though.

The bedding and pillows were amazing! Deep feather pillows and a nice heavy feather duvet was perfect for a good nights sleep. You don’t always get such quality bedding away from home, which is always an annoyance for me!

My husband caught a salmon in the river yards from the cottage within the first hour, which I’m sure was more luck then skill but he greatly disagreed! He also thoroughly enjoyed a day stalking. Matthew was the perfect gamekeeper host. Nothing was too much trouble. The week was topped off by a sighting of a Sea Eagle out of the living room window.

The Spar Shop is about 20 mins away so not too far for a shop. We ate a late lunch at The Carron Restaurant which had a good selection of food for adults and children which was well priced, fresh and tasty. The “take away” food at Eliean Donan Castle was really good. The chips are amazing! I had a kids burger and chips for lunch which was really reasonable and a good portion size. The children had fish and chips which was better then our local chip shop they said.

We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend booking Stag Lodge.

Stag Lodge was an excellent base to access the many fine mountains of Achnashellach. The cottage's elevated position above the road gave a great view looking over to Moruisg and Sgurr nan Ceannaichean. It was very useful having a utility room to leave any wet and muddy clothes after a day's hillwalking. Matthew, the gamekeeper, was very welcoming and always available to help. We very much enjoyed our stay in this lovely part of the Highlands.



Lovely lodge.

We were very happy with our stay in Stag lodge. We wanted to mountain bike near the Torridon area so this cottage was perfect for our needs. We loved the drying room and access to a washer and a dryer. The house is situated above a main road but we didn’t notice the traffic and the view from the living room was brilliant.



Thank you.

Thank you for a quiet setting and great staff. We really appreciate the location and place to stay. Linens were as perfect as can be. Lodge had everything we needed. Water pressure for showering was quite low, but still able to use. Cleanliness really needed some attention. Wi-fi was better than expected for the area.



Thanks for a wonderful holiday

Very comfortable stay; would absolutely return. Owners shared warm hospitality with us, and the Estate staff were fantastic. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a true "get away from it all" Scottish Highlands retreat.

Not an easy review to give. The "Poor" reviews on location and value for money would probably have been "OK" under normal circumstances, but under effective lockdown both location and value for money were not great. Flowing on from that as everything was shut except for Tesco's that took a 2.5 hour round trip, the condition was not good enough in the really wet weather. It really does need decent broadband and/or satellite TV to entertain teenagers; it cost a fortune for a mobile 4G hotspot. The TV also needs updating as you need to work it from the back rather via a remote control. Upstairs toilet seat is loose and was unclean underneath the rim, the towel rail in the downstairs bathroom did not work so it was a damp room.



A great stay on a lovely estate

We had a lovely week staying at Stag Lodge on the Glencarron and Glenuaig estate. We were lucky to have had some rain so the water levels were excellent for fishing on the river and we were very well looked after by the ghillie, Eric, and his wife, Cathy. The lodge was clean and comfortable and brilliantly positioned to enjoy the estate and local area.
