Unusual venues...
I love the unique venues you have, yes can be a bit pricey, but the last one was lovely and I think the next looks great too.
Booking process easy and hosts are easy to deal with.

Wonderful stay at this beautiful cottage which is well-equipped and spotlessly clean. The views were gorgeous despite the rain and the cottage is very cosy at night with the wood burner on. Would highly recommend and would definitely like to return at some stage.

Being able to communicate direct with the owner of the property
That and being advised of new additions, opportunities as they arise

amazing views looking right over the water / very comfy beds / lovey and warm open plan living area with stove, so relaxing

Beautiful, Historic Structure! Nice garden setting after arriving on a cobblestone street. So unique, you won't find anything remotely like it; even another Dovecot. Comfy bed, lighting of dove holes beautiful. Large bathroom and shower. Everything you need to whip up meals or 2 blocks from main Street and restaurants and grocery stores. Sarah was easy to work with and very friendly. I made a special decision to fly in and out of Edinburgh so I could stay here. It was worth it.

Description was accurate. Process was straightforward.

Absolutely lovely stay. The cabin is so tucked away and private that you don’t even see it on the walk up until you turn the last corner. The cabin itself is really comfortable and welcoming, everything has been done to a high spec and thought through well, the views are really lovely and sitting on the deck with a glass of wine in the sun was just bliss. Would love to visit again in the winter to get use of the burner and sit and watch the snow through the giant picture windows.

Really impertinent and persistent questioning post booking about what I may or may not have agreed in terms of price. Unwelcome, inappropriate, pushy and none of your business.

Great properties and well managed site , we stayed in the Brock on Lewis which was stunning and a really cool stay.

A perfect place for a weekend getaway with friends. We enjoyed woodland walks along the River Esk; spotting Kingfishers and Dippers and reverted to being children again in the fantastic treehouse. The house itself is like a boutique hotel with a multitude of rooms to choose from, all with wonderfully comfy beds. The hot tub was wonderful for relaxing in before dinner in the fabulous dining room followed by cosy evenings in front of a crackling fire. Beautiful and peaceful, it was a real treat to stay at Broomholm.

Website and booking was easy. Clear instructions on how to redeem a voucher I was given. Prompt refund of the voucher amount. When I had to contact the team the phone was answered promptly with no annoying options to select from first and the staff very helpful.

Very simple to enquire, book and finalise details ahead of our wonderful stay in The Asparagus Garden. Contact with the host was super easy and welcoming. Hut was beautifully, and stylishly, decorated; comfy bed and excellent quality bedding. Warm and cosy, this hut is a quiet, and very private, retreat. Nearby Lewes a treat to visit also.

Lovely woodland location with a drive through barn! Quite honestly the best welcome book I’ve read - so many tips on where to go to walk, to drink, to eat, for culture and for rest! We needed several weeks to do it justice! The bed was very comfortable and we felt well looked after. Thank you!

The view from Kekaroka Lodge is absolutely breathtaking – one of the most stunning we’ve ever seen. You can even see all the way across to Scotland! We were lucky to experience a beautiful sunset, and later relax in the hot tub under a sky full of stars. Simply wonderful. The little lodge is so thoughtfully and lovingly furnished – everything you could possibly need is there. The crackling fireplace made the atmosphere even more special and cozy. We felt completely at home and truly cared for. Andrea is such a warm and kind-hearted person. When our dog wasn’t feeling well, she helped us immediately with medication, a heat lamp, and even the contact of a local vet. Her care and compassion meant so much to us. We will definitely be back – this was a very special and unforgettable experience. Thank you for everything

What an amazing experience. This hidden gem—a secret retreat tucked away from the world—truly caters to your every need.
The attention to detail was remarkable. From the thoughtfully designed cabin and beautifully tended garden to the hot tub and sauna, every element felt personal and perfect. The essential oils provided added a luxurious touch to the wellness experience.

Cinema night was an absolute treat—intimate, cozy, and unforgettable. The fire pit created the perfect warmth, wrapping us in comfort under the stars. Al fresco cooking on the covered BBQ in the evening, followed by breakfast outdoors in the morning, made each moment feel extra special.

The hosts were incredibly friendly and welcoming—nothing was ever too much trouble. Their warmth, combined with the breathtaking amenities, made this stay truly unforgettable.

An excellent selection of unusual and characterful properties, well presented, with a straightforward booking system. Can't say better than that. Thank you.

Just home from a restorative stay in the Ice House. What a fabulous property with the most amazing views. The house was very cosy & well equipped. Furnishings are homely & comfortable. Watching the sunrise from bed each morning was incredible. We were also fortunate to witness the full moon appear above An Teallach & shimmer over the water towards the Ice House. We loved watching the wildlife from the house be it from the decking downstairs or window seat upstairs. We saw otters & seals most days not to mention the varied birdlife. We even watched 2 white tailed sea eagles whilst heading to Mellon Udrigle one day. The Ice House is well situated for visiting nearby Gairloch (great museum) & Poolewe. The gardens at Inverewe are definitely worth visiting. The Arctic Convoy museum in nearby Aultbea is well worth a visit too. There's a friendly local shop & fuel station a few minutes from the house which was handy. James provided lots of useful info before we arrived at the property & there is lots of reading material regarding the history of the Ice house & it's environs in the property - very interesting ( if you have any spare time!) There are a number of stairs to negotiate to reach the house from the parking area but the surrounding scenery soon distracts you. A fabulous stay in a unique property in this beautiful part of the country.

Like stepping into a fairytale… Heartwood Treehouse was a magical place. Surrounded by stunning countryside, it was the peaceful and private break we both needed. The bed was incredibly comfy (we even snapped a photo of the duvet and pillow labels!), and the view from the sofa was absolutely spectacular. Plenty of wood was supplied for the hot tub, log burner, and fire pit, making it wonderfully cosy and relaxing. The property was spotlessly clean and tidy. We loved taking a ride on the local steam train, first class with a picnic hamper—highly recommend! Special memories were made, and we can’t wait to return. Thank you so much for hosting us!

Great selection of properties, they also monitor if an owner has responded to an enquirer which is very helpful.

A selection of niche, quirky and high end stays in hard to get to places - perfect
