September cottage price down by £155 in Glencoe

Our September prices are £155 down, so if you are looking for a wonderful bargain break in Scotland, then look no farther.

Pretty little lochside cottage near Glencoe. It sleeps four people, has all mod cons and is available for weekly self catering lets from Saturday to Saturday.

This little pier is 200 from the cottage, if you look carefully then you will see someone fishing there. All peaceful, all calm, a wonderful spot to be.

The weather in Scotland is very good usually. It is one of the best months of the year. Gillian and I go there then.

Have a look at the website if you are interested.

August Accommodation in Edinburgh

August is the busiest month in Edinburgh, usually our 4 bedroom Edinburgh Holiday House books up the previous year for this month! We now have a 4 night stay available, from the 18th-22nd August. If you'd like to make a reservation please visit the Edinburgh Villa website and send us an email.

Edinburgh Villa is a family run business and this year has been extremely busy, we constantly have to turn down holiday rental enquiries due to no availability. Because of this we are now offering to look after 1 or 2 properties in Edinburgh, to run them as holiday rentals, from advertising to the check in. If you own a property in Edinburgh and would like further information then please visit our new webpage Edinburgh Property Management

May and June dates still available in Glencoe cottage

This very pretty self catering cottage is in the middle of the most marvellous, rich walking area in the country. You can traverse gentle paths in the woods around Glencoe, look over Loch Leven from the gentle lower slopes of the hills, or get up 3,000 feet and scramble in the rocks above the Glen. There are at least 20 distinct and different walks just in the area of the cottage itself.

The dates we still have available before the Scottish Schools break up, are
May 30th,
June 6th,
June 27th

People are booking later this year, so don't leave it too long.
The cottage sleeps 4 people, in two bedrooms. Glencoe is just around the corner, Fort William a little way up the road, with Ben Nevis just ten minutes further on. Oban and the ships to the Inner Isles is a bit down the road the other way. You can get top class bar meals at a reasonable price just up the road. Walking distance, 400yards. Drink all you like without worrying about driving home!

Ben Nevis, now wouldn't you like to come home from your holiday and say you've done that? It is a long slog but worth it.

The cottage has all mod cons, a new kitchen, and a new bathroom. Look at the website availability to confirm that the week you want is still free.
