Summary: It's far easier to talk about the negatives points of Shorecroft....nothing! We've stayed in holiday cottages for years and Shorecroft is by far the most outstanding. The location and views are simply stunning, Shorcroft itself is fabulous and oozes quality, from the beds and bedding through to the kitchen utensils, literally everything has been thought about and executed to perfection. There was even smoked salmon and Champagne awaiting our arrival. We definitely hope to return, thank you.

Summary: The kitchen of the house is perfectly equipped and the house itself is really a dream: wonderful bedrooms, bathrooms, a living room and even a separate room for the wash machine and the wardrobe. We felt ourselves very comfortable in the house with all the lovely decorated stuff around. We really enjoyed our stay very much! And our dog enjoyed the huge garden!

Summary: Very well laid out property with a luxury feel to it. All the main rooms have views over the loch. The kitchen and dining area is very well equipped. My teenage son made use of the ice maker and we made use of the Nespresso machine as our go-to luxuries. We ate in and out enjoying the beautiful scenery in front of us. We saw some fabulous sunsets when it was sunny. We relaxed in front of the scenery and did some walking, kayaking and fishing. A very peaceful area but a real hive of activity during WW11 when military personnel occupied the area for the artic convoys, a nearby museum we visited tells the story...very interesting. Some remains of the old battlements along the coast are still visible. It only took us 5 mins to drive to a well stocked store at Aultbea and we visited the market in Poolewe on a Tuesday. You can also phone the local fisherman and order fresh langoustine etc. Phone number at the store. We picked some fresh langoustine (still living) up at Badachro whilst in that area and cooked them à la Jamie Oliver. Fish n chips at Gairloch we’re also very nice. Also, amazingly, there is a local cafe, part of the perfume studio, just 10 mins walk away. Like the last bastion of civilisation before wilderness and the Atlantic! If you like the great outdoors with beautiful scenery...A great part of the world to holiday!

Summary: This is a stunning house; comfy beds, well kitted out kitchen, lots of thoughtful extras. Even on wet Scottish Highlands day, the house is beautifully warm and cosy. The views are breathtaking. Would totally recommend this place - we loved it.

Summary: This was our seventh visit to Shore Croft and every time we return we are always taken aback by the sheer beauty of the surrounding area and the luxurious house. The updated decor and artwork that have been added since our last visit are absolutely stunning. It is hard to imagine a more beautiful property in such a fabulous area with wonderful views and direct access onto the beach! I cannot recommend Shore Croft highly enough.

Summary: This was our second visit to Shorecroft, once again we had a fantastic holiday in this lovely property. It’s in a beautiful location and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. We’ve already booked again for next year. It’s rare to find a dog friendly property that’s so luxurious and the dogs love the secure garden with access to the beach.

Summary: This stunning house is situated overlooking Loch Ewe and has the most amazing views all around. It is a spacious house decorated to an extremely high standard and is so very well equipped. You will feel guilty leaving the house to visit the many nearby beautiful beaches and walks but at least you will have the knowledge of what awaits you upon your return. Stormy days give you a great excuse to stay in, to light the open fire in the living room and watch the squalls come across the Loch. It’s so comfortable with its numerous sofas. The kitchen and dining area is spacious, well equipped and comfortable. there are never arguments over the washing up because of the views and the chances of seeing the otters or the sea eagle that visited every day. There is a large fully equipped utility room next to the kitchen which doubles as a great drying room. Upstairs the master bedroom is fantastic, lots of space, views to die for and great en suite with walk in shower and under floor heating. It also has a walk in wardrobe and finally an extremely comfortable bed. There are three other very decent sized bedrooms two of which look out over the Loch. There is a large family bathroom again with walk in shower and bath. All beautifully decorated to a high standard and very comfortable. Honestly I can not recommend Shore Croft highly enough. We have stayed in cottages throughout the UK and can easily say that Shore Croft is the best of them all. This was our 5th visit - our 6th is already being planned.

Summary: We have now had seven family holidays at Shore Croft over the past 10 years. When we first discovered this place, we immediately thought it was just perfect. Perfectly presented and welcoming, we felt at home straight away. There have been small changes over the years, and all of the changes have been for the better (new cooker, dishwasher, fire pit, etc.) and so this property is still our benchmark for self-catering properties. There are many things to do away from the cottage: The Perfume Studio and Aroma café are always very good, Inverewe Gardens are a must, local beaches are excellent and have superb views. For us, this is the place to stay in this region. David & Helen, Leeds
