A wonderful, cozy cottage

We spent Christmas in Oak Cottage and it could not have been a more wonderful stay. Veronica was a communicative and helpful host from the get go and really went the extra mile by putting up some Christmas decorations up for us before we arrived. The cottage is just a little bit down the road from Beauly, so it's easy to get to as long as you have a car. The cottage itself is spacious and well-equipped with everything you'd need. You can also say hello to the animals on Veronica's croft which was an extra treat! We wouldn't hesitate to book Oak Cottage again next time we're in the area.

We have stayed at this property three times now and have always found it to be warm and comfortable. The host is excellent and so helpful. The woodburning stove was just perfect this stay, due to the snow.

Lovely house

The house was lovely, warm and clean. The only let down for us is that it wasn't clear that the house is right next to a very busy main road. Us country folk are not used to hearing cars zooming past at all hours. However, it was a good location for being able to visit many places of interest and not too far from Inverness. Thank you for the fresh eggs they were delicious and a lovely touch, especially when you could see the providers scratching around in the field. Definately free range.

Fantastic cottage- great for families

We had a lovely stay at Veronica's cottage- Oak Cottage. It was much bigger than we anticipated, spacious and light and airy. A lovely surprise! Very comfortable and felt like a home away from home. Veronica left fresh eggs, milk and biscuits which were much appreciated. This cottage genuinely has everything you could ever need and more. A large freezer and undercounter fridge. A dishwasher, all the cooking utensils you could ever need. A washer and a dryer. Books and dvds etc. The animals are fantastic and lovely neighbours to have! The secure dog field was great and our dog had great fun in there. People pay alot of money for access to secure fields for their dogs to play so this is such a great addition. The cottage itself was spotlessly clean and comfortable. Veronica is a lovely friendly host. We enjoyed exploring Loch Ness and Glen Affric. The local area is beautiful .Oak cottage is truly a lovely place to stay!

Cozy cottage in perfect location.

We loved the cottage. It is perfectly situated to enjoy Inverness and drive around the loch. The place was clean, and we had everything we needed to cook. Plenty of hot water! We loved seeing the farm animals on the property.

Ideal for us as dog owners, Veronica had a high fenced pen that we could let our dog run around and answer the eary morning/ last thing at night call of nature in. House was clean , tidy and well equipped for day to day living, we will definitely have a return visit.

We didn’t want to leave!

This Cottage is WONDERFUL! So cozy and warm with absolutely everything you need. Veronica is a great host, she provided us with eggs, bread and milk when we arrived. We had a small dog with us and he had a large fenced area to run about. We had no problem finding the cottage as Veronica gave us detailed directions. Comfortable beds, white fluffy towels and the cottage was spotless! Wonderful log fire to keep us warm and a large TV, DVDs books and games to keep us entertained. Wash/drying room was a suprise! We will definitely book again!

4 night stay

Very spacious accommodation. Very well equipped kitchen. Good shower. Fast and uninterrupted internet service. Our dog enjoyed the fully fenced, dog-safe paddock, that is available for the sole use of guests. Veronica is an excellent host, she went the extra mile when allowing our daughter to help feeding the animals, collecting eggs etc. I would highly recommend the accommodation for families with children.

About the host

Hosted by VERONICA TERVET

Host profile image
I was born and grew up on the property where the cottage sits. The cottage is where the original family home was, it was rebuilt 10 years ago. It is a passion of mine to share this beautiful area with people from all over and let them see what the Highlands has to offer.

Animals are a large part of my life and are all part of the family, come and feed the lambs, horses, hens, ducks and geese.

Red squirrels and woodpeckers can be seen in the woods beside the cottage. You can walk freely around the wood and enjoy the peace and quiet.
