The kitchen is well stocked and comfortable sofa area and beds.

It really has a stunning view on the Moray Firth, even from the bed. The cottage is lovingly furnished and even has a very nice backyard. It´s just a few miles from Inverness so there´s a lot to discover and Avoch itself is a lovely small village. We didn´t want to leave. ##### Stephanie This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 6/10 Okay #### Diane 25 Jul 2023 #### Seaview cottage Some sort of fold away tables would be beneficial as no where to eat, shower very difficult to get right temperature, slight movement of dial made it go too hot, or too cold ##### Diane This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Birgit 22 Oct 2024 #### Lovingly furnished holiday home in a beautiful location! Very nicely decorated house in a beautiful location, quietly located in a small village but easy to reach from Inverness. A place to feel good! There are two bedrooms for a total of 4 people. Unfortunately there is only one dining area for 2 inside. This is unfavorable. Especially since this has already been complained about more often. ##### Birgit This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Sue 23 Jul 2024 #### Comfortable, well- equipped cottage in a super village. Great location, right on the waterfront. Fantastic views. Good location for travelling around Black Isle and Inverness area. Really liked Avoch as a village - interesting place to walk around and good facilities close by. Host provided plenty of information although it took us a little while to work out the TV. Nothing negative. Absolutely fine for a couple and probably a family with two younger children. Might be bit cramped for four adults. Kitchen and bathroom while fully equipped and functional quite small. ##### Sue ### 8/10 Good #### Barbara K. 27 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Schönes Haus mit grandioser Aussicht ./. ##### Barbara K.

The location and the view is amazing and parking was always available. The living room was great and comfortable. The kitchen was fully equipped. The main bedroom had a great view which we enjoyed very much. If I am being honest I would say the beds were not comfortable and very low and soft which we had issues sleeping. Also we found the edges of the bed was quite sharp and need to be very careful when moving around. We also found some hairs on the bath when we first came in and also the underneath the toilet seat wasn’t clean. These are issues we mainly found whilst our stay in Sea Cottage. ##### Yasser This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### MONA URSULA 30 Oct 2023 #### Gerne wieder Perfekte Lage, unkomplizierte Kommunikation Den Vermiter in Persona haben wir nicht kennen geleernt Sofa ziemlich runter gelegen, kein Esstisch, mit 4 Personen wird das Essen auf dem Sofa zur Herausforderung, Töpfe und Pfannen könnten mehr vorhanden sein ##### MONA URSULA This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### MONA URSULA 23 Oct 2023 #### Gerne wieder Perfekte Lage, unkomplizierte Kommunikation Den Vermiter in Persona haben wir nicht kennen geleernt Sofa ziemlich runter gelegen, kein Esstisch, mit 4 Personen wird das Essen auf dem Sofa zur Herausforderung, Töpfe und Pfannen könnten mehr vorhanden sein ##### MONA URSULA ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [DoubleTree by Hilton Dunblane Hydro](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dunblane-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Dunblane-Hydro.h520461.Hotel-Information) > > [Claymore Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Arrochar-Hotels-CLAYMORE-HOTEL.h57956439.Hotel-Information) > > [Marine Troon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Troon-Hotels-The-Marine-Hotel.h554927.Hotel-Information) > > [The Stirling Highland Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stirling-Hotels-The-Stirling-Highland-Hotel.h558482.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont St Andrews](https://www.expedia.co.uk/St-Andrews-Hotels-Fairmont-St-Andrews.h663479.Hotel-Information) > > [Dunkeld House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dunkeld-Hotels-Dunkeld-House-Hotel.h520427.Hotel-Information) > > [Apex City Quay Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dundee-Hotels-Apex-City-Quay-Hotel-Spa.h897382.Hotel-Information) > > [Adamton Country House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Prestwick-Hotels-Adamton-Country-House-Hotel.h3277768.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton Dundee City Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dundee-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-Dundee-City-Center.h15438290.Hotel-Information) > > [JA Mar Hall Scotland](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bishopton-Hotels-Mar-Hall-Golf-Spa-Resort.h1077249.Hotel-Information) > > [Loch Long Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Arrochar-Hotels-Loch-Long-Hotel.h16270964.Hotel-Information) > > [Fonab Castle Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pitlochry-Hotels-Fonab-Castle-Hotel-Spa.h5991409.Hotel-Information) > > [The Victoria Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kirkcaldy-Hotels-The-Victoria-Hotel.h4482159.Hotel-Information) > > [The George Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Inveraray-Hotels-The-George-Hotel.h24458716.Hotel-Information) > > [Inglewood House and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alloa-Hotels-Inglewood-House-And-Spa.h12709295.Hotel-Information) > > [The Caledonian Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fort-William-Hotels-The-Caledonian-Hotel.h13407571.Hotel-Information) > > [Glynhill Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Renfrew-Hotels-Glynhill-Hotel.h868692.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Glasgow Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paisley-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Glasgow-Airport.h519994.Hotel-Information) > > [Moness Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Aberfeldy-Hotels-Moness-Resort.h2955414.Hotel-Information) > > [The Great Western Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oban-Hotels-The-Great-Western-Hotel.h13407325.Hotel-Information) > > [The Pitlochry Hydro Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pitlochry-Hotels-The-Pitlochry-Hydro-Hotel.h1854094.Hotel-Information) > > [Dakota Eurocentral](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Motherwell-Hotels-Dakota-Eurocentral.h1516635.Hotel-Information) > > [The Waverley Castle Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melrose-Hotels-The-Waverley-Castle-Hotel.h13431010.Hotel-Information) > > [Cameron House on Loch Lomond](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alexandria-Hotels-Cameron-House-On-Loch-Lomond.h980306.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton Hamilton Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hamilton-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-Hamilton-Park.h33810078.Hotel-Information) > > [Wyndham Duchally Country Estate](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auchterarder-Hotels-CLC-Duchally-Country-Estate-Hotel-Resort.h79023.Hotel-Information) > > [Riverside Lodge Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Irvine-Hotels-Riverside-Lodge-Hotel.h8519.Hotel-Information) > > [Arrochar Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Arrochar-Hotels-Arrochar-Hotel.h1423391.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Glasgow Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paisley-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Glasgow-Airport.h809324.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Glasgow Strathclyde](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bellshill-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Glasgow-Strathclyde.h520473.Hotel-Information)
