The Cottages [Full Image]
Seriously luxurious FIVE STAR, self catering cottages, sleep up to 10, in the heart of the Scottish Highlands.
AWARD WINNING, best in Scotland for CUSTOMER CARE at the National Scottish Thistle Awards 2007.

Three traditional croft style, detached, private cottages, with garden and parking. Set in the majestic scenery of the Highlands, on the doorstep of the spectacular Glen’s Affric, Cannich and Strathfarrar, the Great Glen and Loch Ness. Perfect for every sport or activity desired or to simply explore this most beautiful and unspoilt land at your leisure.

The cottages are luxurious, sophisticated and yet still have that home from home feel! Everything is new and high quality; spa baths, solid oak floors, in-house chef's service, in-house acu-pressure specialist, wood burning stoves, 'essentials living pack' and a welcome package. Free WiFi. Garden furniture, including barbecue on decking or patio area over looking the burn (small river) a matter of metres away. There is a working croft of over 120 acres, with a variety of pasture, moor and mountain with a burn running right through it, inc. our own private waterfalls and wee lochan. You are welcome to fish, wander around the croft and meet the animals; Highland cattle, sheep and chickens.

We are very child and baby friendly with no end of good quality equipment that we lend for free! Vetted babysitter too.

Welcome to our rural idyll!

Guest Book  
• “We have extensive experience of high quality self catering properties. Millness matches all and surpasses a great many! We have enjoyed a great week ~ excellent accommodation and superb weather. Neil and Justine have put in so much hard work and energy, have set such high standards, and are prepared to do all they can to meet the needs of their guests. McLanachan family, East Lothian.

• “We would like to congratulate you on achieving your aim to provide a ‘rural idyll’ in the Highlands. We as a family have travelled far and wide and always choosing self catering accommodation, but no where has provided us with the overall, extremely high standards in furnishings, comfort, facilities, friendliness and love. Very few places could enable us to cook our freshly caught salmon in such style and provide us with the means to take it home too!
Millness Croft is perfect to ‘chill out’ on site and also offers a good base to explore the surrounding area. We would highly recommend Millness Croft to family and friends and we will certainly return ourselves”. Horrocks family, Cleveland.

• “The availability of all the baby equipment was wonderful. It made our stay much easier and comfortable. Thank you it was perfect!” Roberts-Thompson family, Merseyside.

• “I immediately knew that all I’d wished for had come true once we’d entered the grounds of Millness, my ‘Highland dream’ ~ stunning, romantic scenery bathed in sunshine, with a little burn, just perfect. It’s ‘food for your soul’ to just sit and watch, forgetting everything else. We had a great, very relaxing and entertaining fortnight. All from THE perfect cottage base, comfortably and lovingly furnished and equipped, we wanted for nothing!” Raschke family, West Sussex and Germany.

• “Congratulations on a beautiful cottage. We’ve enjoyed the scenery and local attractions immensely. Overall a beautiful location and an excellent place to stay”. Cooke family, Paris.

• “This holiday provided us with the space, peacefulness and special luxuries, all so personally presented by the friendly owners, to feel comfortable in enjoying what has been a most memorable week. The ‘basic necessities’ you provide and the fresh flowers exceeded our expectations. Thank you!” Hale family, Surrey.

• “This holiday exceeded our expectations – fabulous! The cottage was excellent – first class! Our boys had a great time exploring all over and fishing with nets, what a great lifestyle. Thanks for your hospitality, we had a great week, see you again soon.” Titterton family, Fife, Scotland.
