We cherish your stories from Achnahatnich House. This cosy family accommodation has provided countless comforts and treasured memories for so many over the years.

'Fabulous location and a very comfortable home from home. Easy to reach Aviemore, Inverness, Loch Ness, Balmoral, Culloden, various Whiskey Distilleries etc
Great walks virtually on your doorstep and many activities nearby eg horse riding, clay pigeon shooting, fishing, archery. Good sized garden with the big advantage is that it is very dog friendly with a stock/barbed wire fence although in the race case you have 'jumper' might not be high enough! Nice seating areas outside - the weather was kind to us and we enjoyed breakfast outside under the new covered pergola.'

'Wonderful location, beautiful house, definitely be back. Loved the quiet location and the house was home from home, beautiful'

'Memorable stay in the beautiful Aviemore countryside' Beautiful views and house interiors. Amazing location - rural but still close to everything. Extremely well organised and responsive host (even during Christmas!) with great welcome pack and everything you could need in the house.'

Here's 2025 - get in touch if you'd like to come stay!

'The whole day was perfect- it was a short walk to the Loch from the cottage and we were piped there by the lovely Charlie. The weather gods were kind to us- the sun was shining so it really couldn’t have been any more special in one of our most favourite places in the Highlands .'

We love working with Lindsay for these incredible ceremonies, get in touch with her to create the most beautiful experiences: [email protected].

Embrace the enchantment of winter with a journey to the Highlands.

Embrace the pristine, snow-draped landscapes and the serene beauty that comes with the colder months. As the Highlands transform into a winter wonderland, let the crisp, fresh air invigorate your senses.

Relish in the tranquility of long, dark evenings with a good book or engaging in traditional games by the log burners.

Embrace the slower pace of life, finding peace in the gentle quietude and making time for relaxation and reflection.

Your winter journey to the Highlands awaits—full of moments to embrace.

'Stunning location, beautifully appointed cottage with rides and walks from the door. We loved it all, especially the mezzanine bath! The farm shop were very helpful (thanks for the pastry, Maggie and Amy! The venison pie we made was fabulous!)
Highly recommended.'

'We booked a weeks stay at Honeysuckle Cottage in September as we were getting married on the shore of Loch an Eilein, and this beautiful, luxurious accommodation really was the icing on the cake! The cosy interior is beautifully decorated, the huge beds were so comfortable. The roll top bath in the master bedroom was a real treat and so indulgent!
Everything we needed for a comfortable stay was provided and the cottage is very close to the farm shop and cafe if we needed to pick up any groceries. There are plenty of options for walks from the doorstep so no need to drive anywhere really, but the outside space was wonderful for spending time in as well if you didn't fancy a strenuous walk.
Communication with the staff at Hidden Highland Retreats was second to none and they kindly left us some celebratory bubbles which was a really nice touch ... thank you Katie & team!
We really enjoyed our stay and hope to visit again in the future x'

So pleased to be a part of so many weddings this year - all the best to you Sophie!
