Scottish Letting Licence No: HI-40404-F The community-owned Longrigg Woodland beside the strawbale houses will be undergoing small-scale timber harvesting throughout much of 2026\. Modern harvesting machinery will be used, with no chainsaws, and the loudest noise guests are likely to hear is the harvester’s reversing beeps from the vehicles. To minimise disturbance, felling closest to the properties has been scheduled for the period when the houses are unoccupied (January to mid-March). For the rest of the year, any work near the accommodation will take place only on weekdays between 10am and 5pm, while activity further away in the woodland may run from 7am to 7pm on weekdays. There is no weekend working, and only a small number of timber lorries up to four per day are expected. We do not anticipate any significant impact on guests’ stays, but we are sharing this information so visitors are fully informed. Please feel free to contact us with any questions. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen -

Fabulous holiday accommodation set in the most beautiful part of Scotland. Jack was spotless and welcoming. On arrival we were greeted by the owner who was really helpful and friendly. Once inside Jack we were amazed at how big the house actually is. The welcome goodies left were very much appreciated. Decked areas were awesome , hot tub with a stunning views what more could you want. The house had everything you could need including a been to cup coffee machine. Plenty of local walks and trips to stunning beaches. Highlight of the week was the visits from Pine Martin on the upper balcony. Love this place. ##### Lisa Barclay Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alexander R. 25 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Traumhaus, ruhige Lage, toller Ausblick, top-Vermieter! Sehr schönes Haus, mit viel Liebe und Geschmack gebaut und eingerichtet. Vermieter/Eigentümer wohnt nebenan, sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Ausstattung des Hauses ist neu und sehr gut. Blick aus dem Wohnzimmer grandios, ebenso aus dem Hot-Tub (37 °C) auf der Terrasse. Strontian ist ein sehr kleiner Ort in den Highlands etwas abseits der touristischen Zentren, sehr angenehm. Im Ort ein kleiner Supermarkt, 2-3 Restaurants und eine Tankstelle. Wenn wir nochmal in diese Gegend fahren, dann ist dieses Haus wieder 1\. Wahl. ##### Alexander R.
