• "The owner is a very warm, friendly and helpful host."

  He is easily contactable. We stayed over the Christmas and New Year period and organised to have a beautiful Christmas tree and decorations put up for our arrival. The cottage itself is very spacious with a very well equipped kitchen that we were able to make a Christmas dinner with ease. On arrival the cottage was absolutely spotlessly clean. There is plenty of storage for clothes in the bedroom along with both the ensuite and main bathroom. We could not find any fault with this property at all, and would definitely like to return. The cottage is in the centre of Beauly Village with omly a 2 min walk to the shops, cafes and pub. It is located in a very quiet street off the main road. Thank you to The owner for making us feel very welcome and checking in on us to make sure everything was OK during our enjoyable stay.

• "Maclean Cottage is a fab home from home base in the beautiful town of Beauly."

  It has everything you need for a comfortable stay and is in a quiet spot but so handy for all the lovely shops and eateries. Off road parking makes life even easier and the owner made sure we had everything we needed.

• "Lovely house and great location for day trips - John O'Groats, Inverness, Ullapool."

  Beauly is a nice village, the priory is a lovely spot for evening walks with a 99 from The Friary. The restaurants are nice - especially the Indian restaurant next door and the corner shop for pizza & local foods/snacks. And of course, everything you need for cooking at home is there in the fully equipped kitchen. We had a great experience.

• "Lovely cottage in a beautiful part of Scotland."

  Donald the owner is friendly and helpful. We had reason to contact him a couple of times and he was at the door within minutes. Really great service. Fresh linen and towels but the house needs a deeper clean, lots of dust on lamps, blinds etc. A bin would be useful upstairs and despite the house sleeping 6 I would recommend no more than 4 adults as there are only 5 comfy seats in the living room and one long side of the kitchen island doesn’t have room to tuck your knees under ( this is the only dining space). Despite these criticisms the four of us had a wonderful holiday in Beauly and with assurance that the house would be cleaner I wouldn’t hesitate to stay at Maclean Cottage again.

• "This is the second year we have used Maclean Cottage and we intend to try and use it again in future years."

  The cottage is a little gem and is situated in the heart of Beauly which is a lovely, comfortable, well appointed town close to Inverness. The cottage is clean well presented with a high standard of furnishing and contents. There is ample off-road parking and a lovely little summer house which is a great sit ooterie. Cleanliness is of the highest standard. I can thoroughly recommend this cottage

• "We have really enjoyed our stay in Maclean, it is located very close to the high street in Beauly and close to local shops and petrol station."

  The property was very clean and had all the right things at the right place. I would like to thank the owner for leaving some tea/coffee/sugar before we arrived, a warm cup of coffee after a long drive made all the difference. I would definitely recommend it to my friends and family and when I am back in highlands I would would love to revisit Maclean.

• "The property was amazing."

  One of the best we've ever stayed at. It was spotlessly clean, had fantastic facilities & provided everything we could have needed for our stay. The location in the village was quiet & made it easy for getting out and about to the surrounding areas. The owner was also a friendly guy & made us feel very welcome. The only, very minor thing, is it would have been nice to have instruction manuals for things like the microwave, TV, oven, cooker etc but we managed to figure them out.

Mr Donald, the owner, is a great person! We had great chats, he is very knowledgeble about the Highlands surroundings and more. It was a home to home experience! I highly recomand the place and we are looking to return, cause it's so much to do around.

  Excellent location - especially being in the centre of the village but very quiet. There were some lovely features in the cottage and the standard was much higher than we expected. There was more storage than we could have filled. Donald messaged to ensure we were happy and there were no issues. I can only recommend this cottage and we'd love to go back.

• "Maclean Cottage is a fabulous base for exploring the North of Scotland."

  Don is a welcoming and helpful host who communicates very well and gives his guests’ comfort his top priority. The cottage was exceptionally clean when we arrived and was spacious and very comfortable for our party of two adults and two teenagers. There is plenty of hot water, oodles of storage and we had everything we needed for a comfortable and enjoyable stay - plus the benefit Netflix and two TVs for the teens! Beauly is a lovely little town with two small supermarkets, an ancient Priory, and a range of independent shops, hotels and cafes. It is very easy to get into Inverness, to the north and south coasts of the beautiful Moray Firth, and to the West Coast (Ullapool is just 1 hour). We would definitely return.

  It was very well equipped and we have no criticisms of the house at all. It is located in a beautiful village where locals maintain beautiful flower beds and baskets. There is a lovely hotel a short walk away , the food there is very good and a visit is recommended. A few yards away is a fish and chip shop, an Indian restaurant, a Co-op and a shop that sells a fantastic selection of ice creams.A shop we had difficulty avoiding.

  Die Unterkunft kann uneingeschränkt weiterempfohlen werden; sehr sauber und gemütlich! Gut auch die Parkmöglichkeit auf dem abschließbaren Hof. Nett ist auch das kleine "Sommerhaus". Einziger Kritikpunkt: Es gibt keinen Geschirrspüler und keine Kaffeemaschine (aber das wusste man ja eigentlich vorher...). Die Kommunikation mit der Vermieterin lief problemlos via Whatsapp. Wir würden wiederkommen!

• "We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday and the location and excellent standards of the cottage made our stay all the more memorable."

  The cottage was very well equipped with all mod cons; very clean and tidy and very spacious. Our only criticisms would be that there was no welcoming documents/instructions and no information leaflets for places of interest round about or for things to do when the weather is not so good. We have left leaflets in the cottage for future reference. All in all we enjoyed our stay and would definetely recommend this cottage and Beauly as a holiday location.
