  • "Fantastic property in beautiful location renovated and decorated to a very high standard."

    The beds were a bit too firm for our liking and the kitchen island does not make the most comfortable dining table but these are small issues. We loved the hot tub and had a very enjoyable stay. The welcome pack was a lovely touch and much appreciated.

  • "Absolutely stunning property in a beautiful and peaceful location."

    The cottage has been finished to a very high standard in every detail. The owners have created a really luxurious experience; everything that is needed to enjoy a relaxing break is provided including Denby crockery, luxury hand soaps and a thoughtful welcome food and wine package. The hot tub cabin is the perfect topstone for relaxation on another level - whatever the weather is doing! We loved every minute of the time in the cottage and will certainly be back.

  • "The best that we have stayed in and we have stayed in loads of cottages."

    Super facilities, beautifully clean, comfortable beds and plenty of wood for the fire. Build by the owner to a very high standard and maintained beautifully. No detail is too small which is lovely. The cottage has everything that you need for a nice relaxed holiday. l Loads of local information and maps for getting out and about have been provided. Beautiful walks right on the doorstep and friendly locals who are happy to chat. All in all the perfect escape from a busy life, we would highly recommend. As many others have said, we will be back and a week isnt enough in this little gem.

    Spotless and well presented. Located in a quiet little town, the feeling of isolation was just what we needed. Beautiful walks all around the area and a short drive to many local attraction. We will definitely be back

    Everything is newly refurbished and everything you might need for a stay is provided. Owners even left wine and biscuits to wlcome us. Very scenic part of Scotland with an easy drive to the coastal resorts of Dornoch, Golspie and Brora.

  • "Property was first class with quality workmanship and a complete joy."

    Very minor point was around directions to location, maybe the use of what three words would be helpful. ///skips.recount.subsystem

  • "Property was lovely!"

    Very clean, well presented and overall a fantastic place. I was super impressed with the amount of kitchen utensils as well, as many places you go to on holiday, don't often have everything that you might need. The hot tub was a great way to relax at the end of the day and although there was not a lot of places to visit (towns/shops etc) around the property, there was plenty of places a very short drive away. We visited a couple of places reccomended to us by the owners, such us the The Pier in Lairg and we were not disappointed. The only thing we were a little disappointed about was the fact that one morning, we didn't seem to have any hot water left for one of our part to have a shower, and we couldn't figure out how to change that, but that did not take away from our overall review. We all loved our stay here and would definitely be back again. Maybe we will back next year!

The property

Resting in the rural hamlet of Rogart in the Scottish Highlands, with views overlooking the hills, is this beautiful barn conversion, The Steading.

This family-friendly home enjoys a bubbling hot tub for a moment of relaxation and is just a short drive away from a village serving a shop and pub.

Be greeted by ample off-road parking before entering the single-storey home, where you will find the utility room, home to a boot rack, a washing machine, and a fridge/freezer for storing your snacks.

Moving through the property, locate the contemporary kitchen, here you can keep the designated chef company at the central island as they make use of the electric range cooker.

Discover the charming sitting room, relax, and unwind on the leather sofa as the woodburning stove crackles nearby; flicker through the Smart TV for a family favourite.

Throw open the French doors for an alfresco affair on the outdoor furniture and watch the sky grow dark.

When eyes grow tired retire inside and choose between two lovely bedrooms, with a king-size with an en-suite and a double with Jack and Jill access to a bathroom: both with Smart TVs for late night entertainment.

Jump in the car to visit a rustic Scottish pub to soak in the culture and browse the convenience store for any last-minute essentials.

Venture to the coastal village of Golspie to enjoy a much-loved book on a long sandy beach and there is a plethora of independent cafes to grab a steaming cup of coffee.

Travel to Dornoch where you’ll find the Royal Durnoch golf course, which was voted the fifth best outside of the United States.

Spend a day at the Blue Flag beach with your loved ones, with its sheltering dunes and glistening shores, which are perfect for paddling and swimming.

Perched on the east coast of Sutherland, is the village of Brora, here you can put your swing to the test at a fine golf course, walk for miles on Brora Beach and head to the outskirts of the village to the stately home of Dunrobin Castle & Gardens.

For a special retreat in a rural setting, choose The Steading.

About the location

ROGART

Golspie 9.5 miles; Brora 14.6 miles.

The small village of Rogart lies in the county of Sutherland in the Scottish Highlands. The village is known for once being the home to Major Andrew MacDonald, who fought into the French and Indian War. The village is also home to the Rogart Railway station, which has become something of an informal outdoor museum of railway memorabilia. Within the village, there is a convenience store, petrol station, a Parish church and a traditional Scottish pub. The nearby coastal village of Golspie is well worth a visit, offering a long sandy beach, which attracts many visitors in all weather conditions, along with a thriving high street lined with independent businesses, restaurants, pubs and cafés. Rogart makes a charming base for touring this beautiful part of Scotland.
