What our customers say about their holidays

  Apologies for lateness in leaving this feedback - has been a busy couple of weeks since returning to the toddler.

  First and foremost we wanted to thank you for our stay at The Hen House which we thoroughly enjoyed even if only for 2 nights. We were impressed by the quality of the design of The Hen House, the interior, electronics and setup with manual and the amazing wood fired hot tub! All of this added to a really enjoyable getaway which we have already recommended to others and will continue to do so. We'd very much like to book another stay at The Hen House in the near future! As the stay was pretty much all positive, there isn't that much to say around negatives or improvements but I will mention a few things for feedback: As we don't drink alcohol the gift bottle of wine was sort of wasted on us as a gift. We've stayed at similar small getaways and, on top of alcohol, a local delicacy - smoked fish, eggs or something of the sort is usually given as a welcome. This would have been a super touch! Permaculture Design could be applied to the courtyard to make it more lush and interactive and could easily house hens within the courtyard area. Organic grow spaces could be made amongst the large gravel area. Trees in courtyard need a good pruning. The Smeg coffee machine was great to use.  Bringing this into focus a bit more with extra brew making kit and organic milk would be fantastic. Mattress could be firmer to provide extra support and possibly less pillows. It's difficult to get to sleep first few nights when staying away somewhere if the mattress is too soft and sinks. Overall this is a 5 star piece of well crafted and finished accommodation. It's nicely thought out and has a really homely feel to it. Great travelling distance to Inverness and rest highlands. Highly recommend!

  Had a wonderful vacation.

  This home is absolutely beautiful. Perfect for a large family or several families to share. The area and views from the home are just breathtaking. In the countryside yet only 15 minutes to the city of Inverness. Great base for a vacation. This home is so clean and well stocked. I believe the home is only three years old. Loved the design of the house!! Superior rental property. More than worth the price. Jane the housekeeper is so nice and went out of her way to make sure we had everything needed. Truly did not expect this caliber of a rental home. The bedrooms are set up with 3 upstairs on one side of the home, and 6 on the other. 3 upstairs, 3 downstairs. Perfect set-up if families wanted to share the house. Offered lots of privacy within a wing. Kitchen is a cooks dream. I was worried that the house would be too far out but we were only 15 minutes from the airport and the city of Inverness which was beautiful. We did a lot of day trips from the house. Biggest downside of this home is that once your there you just want to spend time at the house. We had 3 wonderful dinners at the house, 1 being an outdoor barbecue. Highly recommend this home.(ps. we were worried about midges which we were told were up in Inverness in the summer. None at the house. We sat outside till late in the evening enjoying the views. Kids loved the snooker, table tennis, games, tennis court etc. Truly a Scottish Gem.

  This place was perfect.

  It was everything we needed and more! We had a family of 12, aged between 17 and 82, and it catered for everybody. The snooker table was brilliant and although the cues could do with replacing, we took our own so it didn’t affect us. Tennis, Darts and table tennis also kept us entertained too. There were facilities for a bbq, as well as easily cooking for the entire group. The laundry facilities were excellent. The views were breathtaking - being able to stand or sit out in the back and take in the views of a morning is something I am going to miss! The one improvement I would suggest is to add a TV into the main living room for those families that do like to watch TV, as currently the only TV is in the snooker room, but again it didn’t affect us too much as there were lots of other ways to remain entertained, as we took and played board games around the dining table. I would recommend this place to any large group and I won’t hesitate to book again if we were looking to visit the area again. Jane, who looks after the property, took care of everything for us on arrival and was very kind in showing the first arrivals around the property. She was always only a text away if we needed anything but left us to enjoy our holiday - she was amazing!

  What a fantastic place for a holiday.

  The house is amazing. It is furnished to an extremely high standard and the fact that every room has en suite facilities is a bonus. We have just visited for the second time as a group with 4 families, last time for a long weekend this time for a week and it still didn't feel long enough. The kitchen is great to cook in, it has everything you will need, 2 large fridges, cling film, tin foil, ice machine, great cooker. We like the fact that you can spread yourselves around the place either by the log fire in the sitting area, watching tv in the snooker room or reading in the conservatory. Our favourite place is the tennis court with even granny and grandpa playing! The snooker table, table tennis and darts keep the men and children happy and there are 2 bikes for the children to play on. It is a short walk into the village for morning rolls and a lovely restaurant where we walked in the dark one night for a delicious meal. The Black Isle Brewery was also just a short walk away and a must for all visitors. Jane , the housekeeper is extremely accommodating and very helpful. In short I have rented many houses but this one is the best and we are already looking at dates for returning next year Quarryfield see you soon!!

  What a fantastic cottage this is and I would highly recommend it to anyone.

  It was like a wee fairytale cottage, lovely and cozy, spotlessly clean and had everything you would need for your visit. I absolutely loved the bed with the amazing wood panel on the headboard and the amazing gates/doors at the bottom. The large mirror looked beautiful too. The only one thing I did not like so much were the seats. I did not find them very comfortable. The appliances were amazing and they have thought of everything you might need. The garden was lovely with 2 beautiful pagodas. One with seats and a table and one with an amazing hot tub. It is wood fired and the first time we used it my husband tried to cook me !! Next time he got the hang of it better :-) Even the fencing around this cottage was beautiful Chinese / Japanese style. As you can guess this was right up my street and I loved every minute of being there. We had lovely walks around the estate as well so it was a very relaxing stay. Thank you xx
