Very well-presented and welcoming semi-detached stone cottage on the outskirts of the pretty coastal town of Nairn in the Scottish Highlands. Presented to an excellent standard with great attention to detail this cottage would be ideal for a family or group of friends who want to spend time together exploring this lovely part of Scotland. The cottage is deceptively spacious with two sunny bedrooms on the upper floor along with a shower room and on the ground floor there is a second bathroom, very well-equipped kitchen with dining area and cosy sitting room with woodburning stove, just perfect for cosy nights in after an active day. There is a parking area to the front with bench seating and a fully enclosed private garden where barbecues and alfresco dining can be enjoyed on the warmer days. The town of Nairn itself has much to offer but the main attraction has to be its beautiful stretch of golden sandy beach where visitors can walk for miles taking in the unspoilt beauty of the area. Pretty little shops and cafés are dotted around and if you continue northwards along the Moray Firth coastline there are an abundance of small fishing villages, each with their own history and visitor attractions. Leaving the coast why not pick up the famous Malt Whisky Trail and drive through some of the country’s most stunning scenery, stopping off at the distilleries along the route. Nairn is close to the capital city of the Highlands, Inverness, and a drive around the banks of famous Loch Ness partaking in a spot of Nessie hunting can be great fun. This is a fabulous part of the world and this pretty and welcoming cottage will ensure an amazing holiday for all.

Reviews

The cottage sits in a very quiet tree lined lane and is only 5 minutes away from the town centre of Nairn. It's beautifuly kept and so clean and fresh. Really well equipped dining kitchen, cosy little living room with woodburner and nice big TV and various games etc. Bedrooms are bright with loads of cupboard and drawer space and great bed comfort. There's a lovely private garden too with seating, gazebo and gas bbq. Parking for 2 cars. The owner lives next door but does not interfere, he even left us flowers and freshly baked scones and was so helpful. Would certainly recommend the place it's lovely.

Miserable weather on day of arrival but mood immediately lifted by the quality of the accomodation. Cosy lounge with wood burning stove and an array of board games, DVDs and information leaflets. Extra downstairs bathroom very welcome with two kids! Bedrooms are bright and airy with Velux windows and kitchen/dining room very spacious and well-equipped. Little extras like the 'welcome pack' of milk, tea, coffee, sugar and home-made jam and scones make this a cut above. The cottage is in a great location, not far from the town centre and with a Co-Op and playing field/small play area just around the corner. Ample parking and a very pleasant separate garden opposite. Highly recommended.

This is a lovely cottage,nicely decorated,located in a lane just off main road into Nairn just a few mins away and it also is the main road for Inverness.The cottage has a good sized kitchen,owner friendly (next door)and nice welcome pack provided.There is a small co-op store very handily nearby.Nairn itself has a lovely beach and a nice restaurant called Sundancer on front.We stayed first week in July and weather was lovely which enhanced the holiday and the beautiful highlands.This is an ideal place to stay for whatever type of holiday/break and good base for getting to the numerous historical sites and other attractions.Highly recommended.

Stunning cottage in a perfect location for exploring the Highlands. We stayed here for a week and didn't want to leave! The owners provided a welcome pack for our arrival which was a very nice touch. The cottage had all the home comforts required. Highly recommended holiday home.

We enjoyed our break in Nairn very much. We were out sightseeing mostly every day and Deskford Cottage was lovely to come back to. Because of the aspect the cottage, the garden gets sunshine most of the day, so it was lovely to have morning tea, or an evening glass of wine enjoying the sun's rays. A delightful welcome basket including home made bread and jam was waiting in the kitchen. A most comprehensive instruction book giving details of how to work systems and appliance, and lots of booklet information for the area was available together with a personalised introductory letters from owners Phill and Karen Stuart.....thank you both for the big part you played in our very enjoyable holiday. The cottage itself was very clean and very comfortable.

A very comfortable cottage with nice touches all round. A great deal of thought has gone into the feel of the property, with good colours and furnishings. The hosts are so obliging and helpful and we wish them well with their new venture.

We enjoyed the peaceful situation of the cottage and the owner was on hand if we needed to ask him anything. The cottage was excellent and appointed to a very high standard, very comfortable and had everything you could possibly need .
