The garden at Machermore also takes full advantage of the views and you can sit and relax watching the sun set over the bay.

There are many attractions within easy reach of Machermore Cottage including beautiful gardens, such as the world famous Logan Botanic Garden, golfing, fishing and of course a trip to this area would not be complete without a visit to Scotland’s most southerly point and the RSPB Nature Reserve where thousands of seabirds nest in the cliff face during the spring and summer.

Super cottage with lovely view.

Super cottage with lovely view.Machermore Cottage was ideal for us - quiet location with lovely views across the firelds to the sea. The cottage was extremely well appointed and immaculate throughout. If you like the outdoors and exploring it's a great location for a holiday. Very cosy and comfortable. Highly recommended.

Loved everything about this cottage.

Loved everything about this cottage. Location is remote but wonderfully peaceful. Well equipped. Comfortable We saw hares every morning out of the kitchen window. Must be a local family. Swifts, house martins, swallows swooped all around us. Shona was an excellent hostess. Very attentive and helpful.
