In a nutshell: Close to coast, pet friendly, woodburner (free fuel), wi-fi. Among the holiday cottages Ross-shire can offer is this traditional property in Poolewe, an extremely attractive village in a stunning location. It lies at the head of the sheltered sea loch, Loch Ewe, where the River Ewe tumbles under the bridge, forming a small bay. Just a mile away is Inverewe Gardens, recognised as one of the finest gardens in Europe. Now owned by the National Trust for Scotland, the garden was first established in the 1860s. It is home to hundreds of exotic species of plants from around the world, all thriving in the warm, humid climate in this remote corner of the Highlands.This cottage features in my article Scottish cottages by the sea.
