Description

Rowan Tree House is an inviting, semi-detached, stone-built holiday home, resting in the beautiful coastal village of Brora in the Scottish Highlands.

Suited for a family or friends, this family-friendly, pet-friendly home enjoys a welcoming interior, complete with real fires, and all the home comforts you could need, while being within easy reach of local amenities and the beach.

Pull up at the property and unload your bags with ease, thanks to the handy off-road parking spaces.

Step into your new home-from-home, starting with the sitting room, home to a Smart TV and woodburning stove you won't be able to resist gathering around in the evenings.

From here, find the kitchen, stocked with an electric cooker and a dishwasher - an essential so you don't have to wash up whilst on holiday!

Moving through the home, the dining room provides a space to catch up with your loved ones while the open fire roars, or perhaps you prefer to spend your evenings here, with a book from the library.

As eyes grow tired, climb the stairs and choose from a king-size or a twin room, but not before freshening up in the bathroom.

Your four-legged friends will not be left out at Rowan Tree House, with supplies to keep your pooches happy and that all-important enclosed garden to the rear where they can stretch their legs.

When you're ready to explore, make the most of your location with a walk around the picture-perfect village of Brora, home to wildlife on both land and sea, such as dolphins and deer.

Take your furry friends and children for a roam along the beach, and if you're feeling adventurous, you can discover the famous North Coast 500 route.

Venture further on two wheels, with plenty of opportunity for cyclists from the doorstep, or alternatively, set off in the car to find even more charming towns and villages such as the iconic John o’Groats.

A trip to Scotland would not be complete without a round of golf and a day trip to a whiskey distillery, and to say you'll be spoilt for choice in this area is an understatement.

For the history buffs amongst your group, you'll find a wealth of historical landmarks and monuments within reach, including castles and monuments, each set within the stunning and varied landscapes of the Scottish Highlands.

Make memories that will last a lifetime at Rowan Tree House.

We spent 2 weeks at Rowan Tree.

We used it as a base to explore Caithness and Sutherland and it was great. House had everything we needed and the owner was extremely helpful. Beds comfy, shower powerful, bath had ample hot water, heating cosy and stove was very homely. Having two rooms with sofas and tvs was also a bonus. The garden is fantastic and truly dog friendly - we have a little terrier and even she couldn’t escape. Two mins to coop, hotel and beach. Lovely cafe close by.

We have just spent a week at Rowen Tree House with our two chihuahuas.

It was very spacious having two reception rooms, both with real fire places. The kitchen was well equipped, with everything you would need. I loved the designer kettle and toaster, so cute, and the pans were really good quality too. There is a couple of cupboards by the back door with items such as pegs for hanging washing and such, and the other one has dog toys, bowls and treats which I thought was very thoughtful. The bedrooms were spotless, we had the double bed,and it was very comfortable. You can listen to the river across the road through an open window which can be relaxing. The shower in the bathroom has now been replaced with a brand new one, and it works brilliantly, even though the water pressure is quite low, which isn't a problem, Just be aware that pets aren't allowed upstairs. We used fire guard at the bottom of the stairs to stop them,which it did, and as our dogs are crate trained it made it much easier as they sleep together in it at night. The gardens are absolutely fabulous. Really well maintained front and back. The back garden is enormous, and totally enclosed so not even our tiny dogs can escape. They absolutely had the time of their lives, especially when they played with one of the squeaky toys out of the cupboard. Rowen Tree House is perfectly positioned in the heart of Brora, and is an ideal base for exploring around the area. The beach down the road is lovely and sandy. Dunrobin castle at Golspie is very impressive, and a good walk with the dogs in the woodlands and by the coast. The village is small, but a variety of independent shops there and a co-op. Overall, we had an excellent week. Thank you to Floss and David for looking after us, making sure everything was ok.

Rowan Tree cottage was clean and adequately equipped.

Log burner a welcomed feature. Back garden large and very secure for doggies. Only downside is the water pressure is very low, fridge freezer needs replacing (owner said she’s aware) and the kitchen is very dark.
