  What a lovely house, big, spacious rooms clean and full of everything you need, a real home from home.

  Although it was just 2 of us, it's certainly big enough for 8 and it still wouldn't feel crowded. Tastefully decorated with a Scottish charm. 2 log fires, 1 in the living room and kitchen for those cold winter evenings, a traditional Aga stove which was easy to use but for those not brave enough there's a ceramic hob and fan assisted oven. Pizza oven in the outside kitchen and the hot tub were just the icing on he cake. Contact with the owner was easy and she was very responsive when we had a question prior to arriving and during the stay. Round and about there are plenty of walks, amazing waterfalls, castles and historic places to visit. There's a co op which is well stocked 5 mins drive and supermarkets within 15 mins. Not sure if the pub was closed due to it being November but Inverness is 20 mins away and worth the visit. All in all we would highly recommend Orinside.

  We couldn’t have asked for better to spend our Christmas vacation.

  Orrinside is just beautiful, specious, well equipped with lovely decorations up for Christmas. Some fabulous nods to the distillery next door too. We enjoyed cosy nights in with the the log fires burning and even enjoyed the hot tub under the canopy whilst watching the snow fall. The bedrooms were vey tastefully decorated and all 3 bathrooms were spotlessly clean with underfloor heating and towels, robes, slippers and soap available for us all. Communication with Emma was 2nd to none and nothing too much trouble, giving hints and tips of where to go and even giving us advice on cooking Christmas dinner in the Aga and had she even put Christmas crockery there for us to use. I wouldn’t hesitate on staying at Orrinside again next time we are up and will be highly recommending it to everyone!! Thank you from us all for a fabulous stay xxx

  A lovely, charming, cottage well-situated in a relatively central area of Scotland.

  The house itself is nice, very clean, with a well equipped and good-sized kitchen. The bedrooms were of a good size with comfortable beds, and all of the bathrooms were nice and modern. Outside, the hot tub and pizza-oven are nice extras to have, both of which we made use of! Muir of Ord is a small village surrounded by lots beautiful areas of nature, locally and within an hour drive. Highlights include The Cairngorms (Loch Morlich is a must visit!), Bad Girl Bakery in Muir of Ord, and Rosemarkie beach. We are amazed at the variety Scotland has to offer and we barely managed to scratch the surface in the week we had. This cottage in Muir of Ord provided a great base to go exploring from and we can’t wait to return in the future!

  Our stay at Orrinside in Muir of Ord was incredible.

  The house was in great shape upon arrival. It was much larger than expected which allowed the 8 of us to all have a very comfortable time. Bedrooms were large with cabinets allowing us to unpack our luggage for the 5 nights we stayed. The kitchen was spacious with a dishwasher, large fridge with water and ice dispenser. The three bathrooms were also large and lovely. We went on many walks as there were many walking trails within walking distance from the home. Everyone was incredibly friendly and welcoming. The property was very well taken care of with a lovely yard in the back. The hot tub was perfect for a couple of our big traveling We would definitely come back if ever in the area. Clearly a very loved home. Thank you!

  Orrinside was a beautiful house with all the amenities you could wish for.

  We had a relaxing time sitting in front of the fire or enjoying the hot tub. There was a smart TV with Netflix etc as well for the rainier/colder days. The bed was comfortable and the huge bathrooms were all beautiful with underfloor heating. There are lots of reminders around too that this house once belonged to the Distillery too. The Xmas decorations were a nice personal touch, as was the robes, slippers, soaps and welcome pack. The aga was amazing to cook on, I used it a lot. The grounds were very nest and well tended. All in all it was a very nice holiday experience. The Owner was very helpful and easily contactable. Thanks again, we had a lovely holiday experience and I'm sure we will be back again!
