Stayed at Appletree cottage Newton Stewart. It was clean and warm so no issues with the cottage itself, however the entrance to the property through the metal gates is extremely narrow and judging by... See more

A Gem in the Scottish Borders
Amazing cottage, well equipped and confortable with Lovely views over a burn. Lots of wide life around. Super friendly owner but very respectful of her guess’s privacy. Would highly recommend.
Port Carinish
Beautiful accommodation in an amazing spot. The house was warm, spotlessly clean, very comfortable and well equipped. The owners have thought of everything to help you have a great holiday. The beaches around the area are beautiful. A well-stocked community shop is well worth using. Would definitely go back.

Very helpful and efficient company with a good range of cottages. I feel they really know Scotland.
Great service
Unique cottages have some gorgeous, places to stay and were very helpful with questions and queries. Would definitely use them again.
Luxury, wildlife and things to do
A really enjoyable week in luxury accommodation. Hugh was extremely pleasant and helpful as our host. Kestrel, partridges, woodpeckers, blue tits just outside the window ( though sadly no owl!) lots of different places to visit in 10 mile radius - fantastic beaches, walks, forest, nature and shops. And hot tub with a G&T to round off the day. Ideal!

House was excellent but only method of contacting the owner directly was a phone number. Would be far more helpful if an email address was provided. Most other holiday hone sites allow contact with the owner via their website.
Really well organised
Really well organised and fine attention to detail in all aspects of the holiday booking and pre holiday information (great communications)!
Perfect holiday rental!
We found the perfect holiday rental for our stay on Skye via Unique Cottages - a lovely house and garden with amazing views, comfortable, stylish and very well equipped.
Stunning. Jaw droppingly, beautifully stunning.
Simply the most stunning and beautiful villa we have ever stayed in. To say the view is picturesque doesn’t do it justice. The villa itself is modern, bright, (ceiling to floor windows along its length,) and fully equipped with top of the range gadgets, including underfloor heating and a rain shower.
I didn’t want to leave, and I can’t wait to go back. Skye is a wonderful destination and this has to be the best 2 person accommodation on the entire island.
Good all round service with very…
Good all round service with very helpful staff at Unique Cottages. Their policy on bookings related to COVID restrictions gave us confidence in booking during a very uncertain period, hence the 5 stars.
A delightful cottage
A delightful cottage, amazing view, stunning stars. A stress free break.
The perfect Scottish break
This was the second time we’ve used Unique Cottages and we will certainly use them again . The website is very user friendly which is always a bonus . I felt that I could book with confidence , especially in light of the pandemic . Marinaside was a perfect choice for us . Perfectly situated and equipped, we could even saw Dolphins from the balcony which made our holiday .
Absolutely fabulous place to stay
Absolutely fabulous place to stay! Location in the middle of the woods brilliant and exactly what we needed. The cottage itself has everything you need and more! Everything is packed in to a small space; however makes you realise how little space you need for an idyllic lifestyle.
Lovely cottage with stunning views
Lovely cottage with stunning views. Very well equipped and set up. Area is gorgeous with some lovely things to do and see. Very clean and tidy, we will be back to visit this stunning area.
Fabulous holiday on Skye
Excellent customer service from Unique Cottages and the cottage was perfect for us. Housekeeping deposit was returned promptly. Whole experience first class. Would recommend.
Stunning location, comfortable accommodation
We really enjoyed our holiday at this spacious yet cosy farmhouse. The location is great for exploring the countryside around Inveraray and Oban and the views are just as spectacular as they look on the website. The cottage was well equipped, and while there were some signs of wear and tear, the place was very clean and extremely comfortable so didn’t affect our enjoyment of the accommodation at all. The host and the caretaker couldn’t have been more welcoming or helpful. A lovely relaxing home from home.
Great choice of properties
Great choice of properties, efficient booking, good communications. Nothing went wrong but what went right I couldn't fault!
The cottage itself, Rossarden in Luss, was beautiful, and the location was simply amazing. 5 Acres of grounds, surrounded by Lock Lomond on three sides. I could have sat on the terrace and stared out at the water for the whole holiday. Inside was well furnished and equipped and everything was of a very high standard. As the servicing was done by a local hotel its was of hotel quality and very efficient if there were any problems.
Only minor quibble was the late check in (6pm) and early check out (9am). Even considering Covid they were extreme compared to any other property we've stayed in.
Perfect in every way!
The Owl House has every amenity you could wish for, packaged up in a tranquil setting with open views for miles.
The detail and care put into creating this haven by the owners, add up to making it a relaxing, luxurious stay. Can’t wait to return in the winter & use the log burning stove!
