Breathtaking view!

We had the most stunning holiday at New Brachkashie! From the moment you enter the cottage you feel at home. It’s cosy, warm, beautifully decorated and has the best view from the kitchen table! During our stay we explored Fort Augustus and nearby places but the biggest adventure was on the islands of loch Knockie that we reached by cottage boat! Most incredible memories for our children! Can’t wait to be back!

A special location

A very peaceful and beautiful location. The cottage is immaculate. Try sections of the South Loch Ness way and the Findhorn circular walk if you like good walks. Plenty of others close by.

Perfect Scotland getaway

This was the perfect cottage in beautiful surroundings. It was our base for the week whilst we explored Loch Ness and other nearby towns and places. The cottage itself is beautifully decorated and homely. The boating on loch Knockie was also an added bonus and enjoyed by all. Catherine was very helpful and always responded to any queries quickly. Hope one day to return and enjoy another peaceful stay here.

Incredible place

Everything about this place is stunning. The house is beautiful inside and out, the cleanest place I’ve ever stayed. There’s a fire built for your arrival, a loch with your own boats waiting for you and the best view your ever gonna see from a bedroom window anywhere in the UK. Best holiday we’ve ever had. Loved every second

Peace and tranquility

This is a very comfortable, well equipped, stylish cottage in a secluded and peaceful location. The setting is glorious, the views spectacular and the cottage is always warm and snug thanks to a very efficient wood burner. A perfect place to enjoy a break in the highlands. On site boating and trout fishing are an added bonus. Vic Chaffey

Quiet escape

If you’re looking for a secluded (very) and peaceful getaway this is your place. Lovely cottage on a beautiful highland lake—the views are exquisite. It was a little too cool and windy for us to be able to enjoy the deck but being able to have a fire in the evenings made up for it. It’s a little bit of a drive to town but you’ll find pretty much anything you need there—just be on the lookout for the abundant wildlife.

A paradise on earth

We’ve stayed one week in October 2024 at the cottage “New Brachkashie”… and yes… it was absolutely stunning and outstanding. We’ve been so many times to Scotland in the last 2 years, always staying in a house, but we can nothing compare with New Brachkashie. From the first moment on it was like coming home. Catherine furnished the cottage very warm and stylish. The silence, the view over Loch Knockie, the garden and nature around the cottage and so much more makes this place very special and magic. We’ll be back for sure.

Beautiful

We loved everything about New Brackashie cottage. The linens were crisp, the floors in the bathrooms heated, the rain shower downstairs, the comfort of the furniture. The cottage was decorated very tastefully and the view was spectacular. Quiet and serene and so so beautiful. We wished we had longer to stay as we did a tour of Loch Ness out of Inverness and a tour of the Jacobite Steam Train out of Fort William. Wished we had at least one more day to do nothing but enjoy the Loch. Definitely recommend staying here if you like peace and quiet and beauty.

Wonderful week on Loch Knockie

This was a very special and relaxing place to spend a week on our travels! The home is beautifully designed and decorated yet comfortable and welcoming. The amenities are very nice and the beds and linens are especially comfortable and beautiful. We really enjoyed using the canoe and row boat to explore the lake! The kitchen is very well appointed and the coffee and steamed milk were great! Communication with the owner was easy and relaxed. We had dinner at the nearby Whitebridge Hotel twice and enjoyed that very much. We would love to return to this very special place and have recommended it to friends who are planning a trip to Scotland.

Ein unvergesslicher Aufenthalt in einem traumhaft schönen Haus

Wir haben ein tolles Haus vorgefunden, mit direkter Lage am Loch Knockie. Das Haus ist liebevoll eingerichtet und es hat uns an Nichts gefehlt. Wir haben vor allem die schöne Aussicht genossen. Das Haus liegt ideal um die Highlands zu erkunden. Zu dem gibt es sehr bequeme Betten und eine Küche in der man gemütlich miteinander kochen kann und das Essen im Anschluss, mit Blick auf Loch Knockie, genießen kann. Vielen Dank auch an Catherine für den netten Kontakt.

En plus d'être situé dans un environnement incroyable, le cottage est confortable et luxueux. Décoré avec beaucoup de gout, c'est probablement la meilleure location de vacance que nous n'ayons jamais eu. Je recommande absolument.

Urlaub in Schottland

Ein niedliches, liebevoll eingerichtetes Cottage, der Blick /Zugang zu Loch Knockie ist traumhaft. Schon der Weg von Fort Augustus mit Blick auf Loch Ness und Loch Tarff waren herrlich. Sehr gute Kommunikation mit der Vermieterin per Mail. Wir haben die Ruhe und Einsamkeit sehr genossen.

Idyllic retreat

Lovingly and tastefully decorated with spacious rooms and outstanding views throughout. Property is remote and extremely peaceful however nearest pub is only 5 mins drive away and many places such as Fort Augustus are only a short and scenic drive from the property. Added bonus is the availability of a boat and canoe to use on the loch. Would definitely recommend.

A blissful retreat

We enjoyed a wonderful week in this beautiful home. The setting is perfect to rest and restore and also to explore the beautiful highlands of Scotland. The cottage provided everything we needed, to a very high standard. We enjoyed many walks and visited a few of the recommendations made to us. We cannot recommend New Brachkashie cottage highly enough ..and still miss that perfect view each morning…

A little slice of heaven

We loved our week at New Brachkashie - what a beautiful and peaceful location. A great base for exploring the region - we did some hiking, cycling and kayaking. Paddling on Loch Knockie when it was calm and quiet was just perfect. Would definitely recommend this lovely cottage for a great getaway.
