we had such a loverly stay at the cottage, both cottages are well maintained and clean & tidy. Mr Urquart could not be more helpfull would stay any time

We stayed at Alex's cottage, and he never ceased to amaze us with his calm, soothing wonderfully-welcoming Highland greeting and ever-warm hospitality.

His home-from-home cottage was impeccably clean, cosy and ready for our care-free, get-away-from-it-all holiday in Wester Ross, an area of true outstanding natural beauty, yet an easy stroll to the village of Poolewe itself.

We love the area and all that Scottish nature can throw at us. And there is plenty to explore and discover: A wealth of wildlife (a haven for twitchers), rambling in the hills, beach-combing, visiting some of the historical sites, ambling around the world-famous Poolewe Gardens, and visiting some rather lovely restaurants or cafes (offering the freshest sea-food you could wish for).

Croft Cottage is the perfect hide-away: Sit outside to enjoy the stunning views of Loch Maree and the surrounding mountains.

This place is piece of Scottish Heaven, Alex the perfect gentleman and host.

Crofters Cottage is a cosy accomodation sorrounded by terrific nature and a breathtaking view right in Front oft the house. Its perfect for all who love walking and enjoying wunderful landsvape. But what we regarded highly is the owners great hospitality and warm welcome.

Warm and Cosy, comfortable and very welcoming little cottage. Very well equipped and with a lovely enclosed garden with wonderful views. Alex is such a friendly welcoming guy. Will definately return

We have been visiting for about 15 years and have stayed in both cottages. The views are wonderful whatever the weather and the cottages are in a peaceful setting. They are well equipped as well as comfortable and uniquely different. The host is extremely welcoming and helpful which adds to the joy of being there.

We had a wonderful week. The setting of the cottage is perfect; a quiet location where one can look out at or walk by the river, into the fields and woods, yet close to Poolewe village. Everything that we could possibly need was provided and because it was still chilly outside we lit the fire every evening.

In our cottage the stairs were, as we had been warned, steep, but perfectly negotiable as long as one was careful. Our host was very welcoming and it felt like a home from home. I hope we shall be able to visit again.

I should also add that the cottages are extremely reasonably priced. [Added at Editor's discretion since it appears to be a helpful review and the reviewer has been authenticated]

Had a lovely fortnight at 15b Poolewe, clean and comfortable. The cottages are in a really stunning location and Alex is a true highland gentleman. [Added at Editor's discretion since it appears to be a helpful review and the reviewer has been authenticated]

had a loverly week at the crofters cottage poolewe. Very clean and comfortable with all aminities included. Breath taking views would recommend it to any one.

We have been visiting since 2000. The cottages are in a stunning location and Alex is a first class host. All necessary amenities are available in the cottages. The cottages are an ideal base for exploring one of the most beautiful areas in the Scottish Highlands.

Highly recommended!

This year was our third visit. The croft cottages are in a location with superb views and centrally situated for access to Ullapool in the north and Skye to the south. You don't even need to use your car, just walk out of the door and explore the local footpaths to the mountains and lochs. Alex offers guests a warm welcome in his comfortably furnished accommodation.
