The Birdhouse

We had a wonderful stay in the Birdhouse. It was so comfortable and warm and a great retreat from Storm Ashley. Very well equipped with a great shower and very comfy bed! Wonderful to walk from the door, both coastal and hill walks. Applecross itself also has a great pub and walled garden, both great places to eat.

Beautiful area, beautiful place! Everyone should put a little birdhouse in their soul! Perfectly appointed house and great hosts. Plenty of walks, views and good food. Highly recommend!

The Birdhouse is an idyllic, peaceful place to stay. A wonderful nest! It's extremely comfortable with everything you need - including hot water bottles, logs for the fire and a gorgeous welcome basket. It you spread your wings it's well located for meals out, a little local shop and wonderful walks. We only stayed three nights but wished it had been for longer.

A stunning bothy in a super location. Tranquil and calm. We felt immediately relaxed and chilled here. Super beach a lovely 30 minute walk away. Great local pub and restaurant. Can't wait to return

They Might Be Giants sang about the 'Birdhouse in your Soul'. Not to put too fine a point on it this is how we felt about our stay at The Birdhouse. The place is truly wonderful, and the area likewise. The service online beforehand was exemplary. Val is to be commended, and followed up as promised. Deposit returned without hassle. The 'on site' help is friendly but unobtrusive. Although the weather in late August was not great, the log burner kept us warm and cosy. That is the Birdhouse in a nutshell. Whether you arrive via the pass or the coast road, you will find your nest.

What an amazing wee place to stay. Unique and very well equipped. Everything has been though of.

Wonderfully stylish, cosy and private cottage. Super location, with one of the best beaches in Applecross within walking distance. Excellent hosts with an eye for detail.

The Birdhouse is really special - lots of reclaimed wood and thoughtful design touches but above all comfortable and welcoming. Everything you need on a self-catering break has been thought of and done well. It's just south of Applecross itself so there's much less of the North Coast 500 traffic which makes it peaceful but it's still easy to get to the Applecross Inn and Walled Garden, both of which serve great food. Lots of walks in the area - the walk to the coral beach is well worth the effort - and the scenery and views are stunning. The drive in over Bealach Na Ba is amazing!

Very stylish and quirky retreat for a romantic break. Everything was well presented, including a welcoming bottle of bubbles! Molly the dog appreciated the huge dog bowls and bag of treats. Lots of lovely walks around and good food at the Applecross Inn or Walled Garden at Applecross House. Excellent fish and chips from the food truck outside Applecross Inn

We had a lovely time at the Birdhouse on our honeymoon. The interior is absolutely beautiful and it is such a cozy wee hideaway. The people who run the place are lovely. There is lots to do in the surrounding area - beautiful walks and scenery, amazing wildlife and a great pub for food and drinks. We will definitely be back!
