  • "We are disappointed to report that the cottage we booked for a week was so cold that this had an adverse effect on one individual's health due to diabetes."

    It is our feeling that one woodburning stove is not sufficient at this time of year. Underfloor heating was present in the bedroom and bathroom but the main room remained freezing for many hours and this actually led to an individual falling so ill that we vacated the cottage in the early hours of Sunday, thus bringing our week to an abrupt end. We could not contact anyone as the phone numbers listed are inaccessible. We received a partial refund but remain dissatisfied. A shame as the cottage was lovely and a fine location etc. If only the heating issue could be resolved.

    Perfect getaway from it all and very relaxing, some wonderful walks nearby and fantastic wildlife on the doorstep. The cottage has everything you need for a comfortable and relaxing stay. Would highly recommend.

  • "We really enjoyed our stay at The Wee Barn, it was a cosy place to stay and larger inside than we expected."

    The peace and quiet also a bonus. Gael who looks after the barn does an excellent job of cleaning it after each guest leaves.The eggs ,butter, bread and milk also a lovely gesture.The scenery all around is fantastic,.although we stayed there during a wet and windy week it did not dampen our stay. We also met Gael's sons who were both very friendly. We would recommend The Wee Barn as a get away break.

    Owner Gael was very pleasant and helpful. Fairly isolated 3 miles from the main A road, but easy drive. Plenty of logs for the log burner and warms up quickly. We only had one problem and fixed straight away (leaking kettle :)). I would stay again good enclosed area for the dog as well. VERY QUITE shhh :)

    Quite a remote area and a bit of a drive to amenities like shops etc, but if you enjoy being out in the wilds like we do, it's ideal. The area itself is absolutely stunning and if you enjoy solitude, scenery, wildlife watching and nature it's perfect.

    I tried carefully to establish the correct / optimum running speeds but, even when I thought I’d mastered it, I still got suddenly sprayed a few times. 2) the sofa is old and saggy. A new one would be more comfortable, perhaps. 3) instructions - on how to get terrestrial channels, for those of us unfamiliar with Sky etc - would be good. I could have found Gael for help … but it wasn’t that important, just occasionally annoying. I used Netflix and was happy with that. 4) a medium sized ceramic / Pyrex flat bottom dish would have been good. Thank you.

  • "An excellent choice for this area."

    The three mile road from the main road gave just enough remoteness and privacy for our privacy and seclusion from heavy traffic. It did add to the travel times to places of interest but not excessively. One cannot have both. Bird watching was limited in the immediate area although cuckoos were very vocal. Access down the hill to the Jetty was a brisk walk but there was no beach for those who may wish to use one. Everything installed worked well for us although 'instruction' books for the equipment would have been very useful. Never used the TV set up as we had no idea how it worked although as we do not have one at home it was a 'nice' to have rather than a crying need. All in all the place was quite charming but in need of a good carpenter to fix door closings.

  • "If we were only staying one or two nights, the wee barn would have been fine for a quick stop."

    We stayed a week and then found the uncomfortable bits. Small things perhaps, but they grated after a while. The kitchen faucet that spit water. No hot water out of the kitchen and bathroom faucets except for barely tepid once a day. The electric shower was fine though so we could have somewhere hot to wash hands. The underfloor heating in the bedroom was wonderful but did not extend to the living room where, even with the woodstove, it was cold. The wifi was fine but we had no phone service. The kettle was made to look pretty but was hazardous to use - the lid would fall off when it was poured. The hob worked well but there were no labels to indicate which burner was being turned on.

    Thank you for your comments as no guest has ever pointed these out to me before. I had a plumber and electrician come out to check the property yesterday. The water pressure is high but not excessively so but caused your spit. The water heater is in perfect working order and only if you run the taps too fast would fail to keep up the heating process. There is an spare electric heater in the bedroom cupboard if you wish for extra warmth or do not wish to light the stove. I am afraid being the Highlands we do have lots of mountains which limits the mobile phone signal but the WIFI enables the use of Whats App and messenger which are free. The kettle lid is secure and tight and does not fall off. Each hob burners glow red when turned on which would indicate that it is on. Kind regards from The Wee Barn Property Owner

    From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, we felt totally at home and so comfortable. The Wee Barn was super clean and cosy and was everything we had hoped for. The Welcome Pack was great and literally saved our bacon as we hadn't been able to get essentials in before arriving. The owner, Gael, was equally welcoming and lovely but not intrusive and was there to help if needed. The view from the cottage was breathtaking morning, noon and night and just sitting watching the little boat scurry back and forth to Scoraig was such a pleasure..the mountains, the loch and the sea changing with the weather. It was magical...we have certainly left a piece of our hearts there and we cannot wait to 'Haste ye back'.

The property

Laide 12 miles.

The Wee Barn is a cosy retreat overlooking the idyllic Little Loch Broom in the Scottish Highlands.

With its tranquil, remote location and snug accommodation for two, make this the heart-warming base for your romantic getaway.

Enter into a homely hallway; a comfy arm chair offers a moment or two of peaceful relaxation.

Straight ahead lies the bright white shower room, charmingly retaining the barn's original whitewashed stone wall.

Spend your leisure time unwinding in the splendid open-plan living room; the dining table looks out over the loch whilst the welcoming sofa enjoys the company of a stunning woodburning stove.

Retire to the inviting bedroom at the end of each day, a double bed is enhanced by exposed woodwork and plenty of hanging space so you can pack for all weathers.

A delightful bench comes at the front of the house and showcases the most incredible views of the loch and the mountains beyond, a heavenly spot to sit with your morning coffee or evening glass of wine and simply appreciate this wondrous setting.

A drive along the picturesque coast brings you to Laide, which boasts some local amenities.

You can find a friendly village pub at Aultbea slightly further afield.

As well as majestic countryside and coastline nearby, longer trips can take you to the charming town of Ullapool and the striking city of Inverness with its dominating castle and wealth of amenities.

Make The Wee Barn the location for your much-needed break from everyday life.

DUNDONNELL

Ullapool 30 miles; Gairloch 30 miles.

Sheltering beneath the massive mountain range of An Teallach, with superb views down Little Loch Broom, Dundonnell in Wester Ross is in one of the finest holiday areas in Scotland - even a short visit will reveal its many different and beautiful faces. Situated 30 miles from both Gairloch and Ullapool, this part of the west coast has many features that make it a great holiday destination; mountains to climb, open spaces to walk, wildlife to observe, clean and accessible sandy beaches, boat trips to the Summer Isles and Chiants and snorkelling and scuba diving off the nearby Summer Isles just to mention a few. There is so much on offer within a short distance of the Dundonnell area, which covers the communities of Dundonnell, Camusnagaul, Badrallach, Ardessie, Badcaul, Durnamuck, Badluarach and the Scoraig Peninsula, accessible by boat and by walking along a narrow track from Badrallach.
