November short breaks available cottages in Scotland

Many self catering properties have availability at low prices for November - some have vacancies in October for October. Follow the link below for 12 of the best ones and click on the cottage you fancy to obtain their low price deals.

In our property, the lochside cottage near Glencoe shown in the photo we have three short breaks available in November. The weekend of Friday until Monday on November 7th is free, and again on November 14th, also we offer a four day break from Monday 10th to Friday. These breaks are at £195 each, four people can sleep in the 2 bedrooms for a cost of around £10 per person per week. That is an incredible low price.

The warm and cosy cottage is in a stunning location, mountains and lochs all around. The roads are quiet at this time of year, the restaurants and facilites are open, it is a glorious time of year for touring around or light walking.

This is a link to our cottage site, you can e-mail us from there.

Beside the Seven Sisters, minutes before you reach the Isle of Skye...


Gillian and I were surrounded by the most beautiful mountains. We had driven along the small road towards Skye, from Invergarry. We dropped down towards the most photographed castle in the world, Eilean Donan, looking peaceful now, but deadly in its day, then up towards the Seven Sisters of Kintail, wondering if we had the energy....


Around the corner then was Colin, simply the most affable and warmest of men and the owner of Conchra Cottages.

I first met him at a meeting of holiday home owners when we found ourselves on the same side of a debate, the origins of which I've forgotten now, but I think our side lost. We've become e-mail chums - huffing and puffing against the rights and wrongs of many issues, on all of which we seem to agree. It is the "We are right and they are wrong strategy" and it works well for us.

His 3 cottages are wonderful and the garden flat which can sleep up to 6 people. From them you can see the little Highland village of Dornie across the water. The first - or is it the last - of the Seven Sisters is growing out of his back garden.

So would you like it if the romance of the Isle of Skye was only ten minutes away, if you had magnificent walks and views all around, to see some small old Highland communities on the lochsides, see the last remaining turntable ferry in Scotland, look inside an ancient and mysterious broch, and wonder as everyone does, about its origins and purpose a couple of thousand years ago? Of course.


You can find some wonderful pictures of the area here.
