Overview
Step Inside
As soon as you step through the front door, Eriska’s luxe interiors cocoon you in comfort. Thoughtfully designed to be as close to nature as possible, the floor-to-ceiling windows in the open-plan living area flood the cabin with light. Embrace leisurely lie-ins in the sumptuous king size bed with a brew from the Tassimo coffee machine, before crafting delicious plates to enjoy at the breakfast bar. The kitchen is equipped with a fridge-freezer, oven, electric 4-ring hob, and dishwasher, making cooking a dream. A cosy two-seater sofa and armchair offer the perfect spots to curl up with a book, watch a film on the Smart TV, or simply gaze at the breathtaking views, while a portable speaker awaits to play your favourite soundtrack. Underfloor heating and a wood burner ensure your cabin stays wonderfully toasty in all seasons.
The bathroom sits opposite the kitchen, featuring a heavenly walk-in shower, heated towel rail, and luxury local toiletries. Snuggle up in the fluffy robes and slippers provided and embrace a restorative evening in your peaceful sanctuary.
Outdoors
Step onto the covered decking through the sliding glass door for a blissful evening surrounded by rolling hills. Pop open a bottle of your favourite tipple, whip up a delicious meal, and dine out under open skies on the comfortable chairs, loungers, and picnic bench as the day's last sunbeams glisten on the loch below. Unwind in the steamy Canadian spa hot tub and soak in utter tranquillity of hooting owls and rustling trees.
If you are lucky enough to visit under the right conditions, the Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights) regularly makes an appearance in the Scottish sky, a magical addition to a romantic getaway.
Explore
There's plenty to explore in and around the beautiful Scottish Highlands. Set off on leisurely walks with your four-legged friend through the rolling hills, enchanting woodlands, and along lochside trails, making sure to look out for resident red squirrels. Or, glide across Loch Migdale's calm waters on a paddleboard or kayak and take in the mesmerising scenery that envelopes your hideaway. Perfectly placed for all types of adventure; stroll, hike or cycle through the Littleferry and Loch Fleet Nature Reserve, enjoy a picnic, and indulge in nature's soundtrack.
