About this house rental

The house is let as a whole, with one double and two twin bedrooms. There is a large, well-equipped kitchen and dining room with a lovely open plan sitting room with a log stove. There is a new hard tennis court you can use, and fishing is often available during May, June & July.
Dalmigavie lies at 1200 ft, and is surrounded by miles of empty 'Monahdliath Mountains'. There is a long track from the house up the glen and then into the hills. During the Spring when birds are nesting, we ask guests to avoid walking on the open hill, especially with dogs. Almost every British bird of prey has been seen at Dalmigavie. David and Lorna Paton, look after everything at Dalmigavie, and have been there for 25 years. They live in a cottage close by.

Dalmigavie is 6 miles off the A9 near Tomatin. It is 40 minutes from Inverness airport, and 20 minutes from the station at Carrbridge. Two hours from Edinburgh. A car is needed, and the last 100m to the house is up a steep vehicular track. There are several good golf courses in the vicinity. The coast is 45 minutes away. The weather can be wild and cold, or warm and balmy, sometimes on successive days!

House rules: No dogs allowed in the house accept by prior arrangement. No smoking.
Dogs to be kept on leads outside (sheep, deer, red squirrels) and nesting birds in the Spring - woodcock, curlew, oyster catchers, green plovers, grouse, amongst others.

Please treat the house, grounds, river and hills with care and respect. Once you cross our bridge over the river Findhorn into Dalmigavie estate you enter a little world of your own.


If you enjoy fishing, you can take a day or two of salmon fishing on 4 miles of the Findhorn at Dalmigavie at a cost of £55 per day. Rods are not provided. Let us know in advance in case it is already booked. We can take up to 4 rods at a time.

Great house/cottage in middle of Scottish Highlands. 4 adults with plenty of room to spread out. Good array of appliances. Bit of a trek in and out but not to bad. There is a Lodge down below the house but it's far enough away to be non existent. Greatr trails in area that lead to highland wildlife. Would have been nice to have been able to stay longer than our three days. Lorna(Host) was very friendly.

I absolutely loved my stay at this cottage. If you’re looking to escape the hustle and bustle and enjoy true peace, quiet and beautiful wilderness, this is the perfect place. The views from every window are simply stunning and made waking up each morning a real pleasure.The cottage itself is a little tired in places, but that didn’t bother me at all it felt cosy, comfortable and had plenty of character. It was also very well equipped with everything I needed for my stay.The mattresses were quite firm, which will suit some people, although I personally prefer a softer mattress. One thing that did make me smile was the bathroom towels I don’t think I’ve ever come across towels quite so hard! It gave me a good laugh.Overall, I had a wonderful stay and would happily return. If you value nature, tranquillity and spectacular scenery over luxury finishes, this cottage is a fantastic place to unwind.

This is a beautiful property. Ideal for our family of 6 for a two night stop on our journey further north to Orkney. We loved the property and the surroundings and would happily have stayed much longer. Highly recommended.
