Jun 2, 2019 #### Wonderful experience We spent 3 days in the remote Kinloch Hourn cottage. We loved the peaceful and disconnected atmosphere, the wonderful sceneries, the wildlife, and of course the kindness of the people we met, in particular Tony. The cottage is perfect, cosy and full of charm, also well equiped. We will remember our stay for a long time. ##### Gautier J. Stayed 3 nights in May 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Eve S. Jun 10, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### No1 Old Cottage, Lochhournhead, Kinloch Hourn We booked this cottage because of it's proximity to a group of Knoydart Munros, but were extremely pleasantly surprised by it's layout and the quality of its facilities, fixtures and fittings. The landlords Harriet and John were very approachable and very supportive after one of us had an accident. We would recommend this cottage to any Munro baggers or anyone wanting a stay in this part of the Knoydart peninsula. A local red deer stag, aka Callum, who used to appear in case we had any apples going spare added to the magic. We saw otter, fox and stoat. ##### Eve S. Stayed 7 nights in May 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Iris H. Aug 11, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing place to experience the Scottish Highlands We stayed in the farmhouse. It takes you time to travel down the road, but encounters with the highland cows and the views will make your trip an adventure. The B&B and farmhouse are well comfortably furnished, clean and well kept. The management is friendly and offers great advice for walks and day-trips. The food is wholesome and gives comfort after a great hike. You will have your pick on routes for a hike from 2 up to 8 hours. And none are the same, the landscape is spectacular and can challenge all popular destinations. Bring your midges spray, but you’ll soon be captured by the views and forget these little challenges. The hikes can challenge the inexperienced walker and do request prober gear. There is a calmness to be staying of the grid and in a bit of isolation. For us as a family of four, with to student sons the ideal place to enjoy nature, hiking and be with each other. And Harriets sticky toffee pudding is a rear treat! ##### Iris H.

The hosts are warm and welcoming which makes it a very relaxing and peaceful place to have a break from 'normal life'. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gill S.

Very friendly and helpful hosts Vicky and Iain. Stunning location. Great walks. Make sure that you take everything that you will need for your stay as it wonderfully remote. ##### Gill S. Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### olivier t. Aug 10, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Vraiment dépaysant! Au milieu d’un paysage sauvage et fantastique, la maison est vraiment parfaite. Super bien équipé, confortable et tres bien aménagée. A noter qu’on est déconnecté du monde. La maison est au bout d’un chemin de 30km (compter une heure de route a partir de la route principale), pas de reseau mobile et pas de wifi. Vous etes seul au monde et au calme ce qui est tres agreable. ##### olivier t.
