Vindolanda Self Catering Holiday Cottage Scottish Highlands, Scotland

Vindolanda Self Catering Holiday Cottage Scottish Highlands Family friendly Holiday Cottage for romantic breaks near a beach in Applecross, The Highlands, Scotland

 'An'Cromaich', is the Gaelic translation of Applecross, meaning 'The Sanctuary’.

Applecross is an area of outstanding natural beauty in a timeless place apart. 

The feeling of 'having left the everyday world behind' is immediate.

Vindolanda is perched a hill looking directly to the sea, 300M away, and to the staggering Torridon Mountains, behind which the sun rises at the sets behind the inner islands casting cloud and uplighting clouds along the length of the Loch at which time the scene is flooded with hues of pinks and blues.

The expansive views are staggering and ever changing; new drama each time you gaze over it. 

There is a beautiful safe sheltered sandy beach just a short walk from the front door, with superb rocks for exploring and entertaining children, both at low and at high tide.

There is much to explore within walking distance and it is possible to enjoy a carless holiday.

The accommodation provides a high degree of  modern comfort in traditional design, moreover, the cottage allows permanent contact to be maintained with the outside from anywhere within.

A wonderful escape more especially in these difficult days of normal life in suspended animation.

We have added new photographs of our first 2023 calf born into rather wintery conditions. Also some photographs of our freely roaming Highland Cows which visitors have uploaded to our Instagram site. All happy after a difficult winter to be on the cusp of Spring!
