About Little Chestnut

This most impressive and immaculately-presented semi-detached cottage is privately situated in the pretty village of Muir of Ord, just north of the Highland capital city Inverness. Little Chestnut is set beside the owner’s home, but offers complete privacy to guests who wish to pamper themselves in this luxurious property.

The cottage is ideal for a family or group of friends who will not only appreciate the beauty of the area, but also the comfort, style and facilities in this property. A tarmac driveway leads around to the front door and large parking area and you will be immediately impressed with the style and space both inside and out.

With great attention to detail, the owners have provided thoughtful extras to ensure guests want for nothing. At ground floor level there is a sociable open plan kitchen/dining room that leads through to a sunny sitting room, a perfect place for family relaxation.

On the ground floor are a king-size double bedroom and contemporary shower room, with two further bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor. The property simply oozes style and comfort, and just a few yards across the courtyard is a detached log cabin fitted out with a generously proportioned hot tub, a sauna and shower facilities.

Next door to the leisure suite is a fabulous BBQ hut where cooking on the large central fire will be an exciting experience and guests will certainly enjoy the ambience of the hut along with a glass of wine or two! Muir of Ord has good local facilities, including a golf club, plus there are a number of clubs within a 20 mile radius.

There's also so much to see and do in this magnificent region. A trip to Loch Ness for some monster spotting is always fun or perhaps try some pony trekking at the nearby stables.

Little Chestnut Reviews

Hayley
Wonderful place to stay. Lovely and clean and very well equipped. The owner greeted us on arrival and showed us how to use the hot tub. We didnt see them again which suited us perfectly as it felt very private. We knew they were only next door and were very happy for us to make contact if we needed anything. We dont like to be fussed when on holiday, so for us this was great. Prosecco and milk on arrival was really thoughtful as were the robes and slippers. Great location for exploring and theres a coop 10 minute walk away and a esso garage even closer. Lovely peaceful location. We didnt use the barbecue hut but it looked fab. The sauna was also great! Highly recommended place to stay.
Andrew
Excellent holiday house, we knew straight away it was ideal for our stay. The house embraced you in comfort in a pleasant setting. Within Muir of Ord it was convenient for petrol, Coop and bakers. Good access to Black Isle and close to Beauly. Even the weather cooperated. A delightful stay rebooked already.
We had a fantastic week at Little Chestnut. Thank you for being so welcoming and the gifts were a lovely touch. Loved the hot tub and sauna, and the bbq hut was amazing! Would definitely recommend!

Property was absolutely wonderful. We had a great holiday facilities was fantastic little chestnut is a lovely place to stay, owners are very friendly and helpful Thank you
Wow, an amazing property, with everything you need for a brilliant self catering stay. Ken was present on our arrival, and clearly explained the instructions of the hot tub, sauna and bbq hut. The house was very spacious, and extremely clean with quality furniture making it the most comfortable place we have ever stayed in. The downstairs shower was awesome. Hot tub and sauna were used daily, providing much needed relaxation after a busy day. The outside area was very private and well maintained. We made use of the bbq hut a couple of afternoons and enjoyed dining outside, We have stayed in quite a few holiday homes, and Little Chestnut is now our number 1. Thank you Ken and Theresa for a wonderful stay, and we will be back at some point. Graeme and Paula
Just that we had a blast. Place is amazing. Nothing to improve. Just want to live there
Patricia
Staying at Little Chestnut is like staying at your own private resort. It is so peaceful and calm. The owners are also very accommodating. I have stayed there three times and I will be back. I love it.
Excellent property, beautifully cleaned and maintained with superb facilities.
A lovely house and a lovely week.
Beautiful property with a huge hot tub and sauna. Tastefully decorated and spotless. Great location for exploring the highlands. With little extras, the owners have thought of everything. Would highly recommend and we hope to visit again
Ernest
From the moment we arrived it was a 5 star relaxation holiday. The cottage is lovely inside and outside, complimented with the hot tub and sauna. It far exceeded our expectations.
Michelle
We loved coming back to Little Chestnut, it's like a home away from home as it has everything you need, this time we stayed two weeks. Ken & Theresa are very welcoming and were in contact with us through out our holiday. Theresa knocked the door to let us know that the Northern lights were out. Which was a lovely thing to see and tick of our bucket list. It was lovely coming back to the sauna & hot tub after a cold day out. And we are already looking forward to returning for our next visit.
Far exceeded our expectations. It is the best cottage we have ever stayed in. We would give it 6 stars if we could. Will be immediately be booking a return visit
Excellent stay, great hosts and everything that we needed was supplied and the welcome gifts were an added treat. Ideally situated to explore the Cairngorms and the West coast. Impeccably kept property throughout and the leisure suite with hot tub and sauna make The Little Chestnut a perfect place to relax and unwind. The BBQ cabin was a great experience and just finished off the holiday perfectly..
We had a great week in the house and would definitely come back.
Sharon
Little chestnut is truly an outstanding property, a W O W house ,every home comfort you need, with few extra features. The Hot tub so lovely to relax in & a comfortable bed to sleep in at end of days sightseeing. Cleanliness second to none!!! On arrival we were greeted by Ken, a very warm friendly man, unfortunately we didnt meet Theresa , but did communicate before our holiday, which was very helpful & informative, recommended few places to see & as everything went smoothly in the house we didnt need to bother them. We were left a lovely welcome pack which was appreciated. The garden was beautiful, pity it wasnt summertime as Im sure itll be a lovely garden to relax in! Our first visit to Scotland, absolutely stunningly beautiful country with gorgeous scenery, very friendly people,loved it , thinking of visiting ? then Id highly suggest you book little chestnut you wont be disappointed.
I must express my astonishment! If you ever have the opportunity to reside in this location, you will undoubtedly find it to be exceptional. This establishment offers an array of amenities that exceed one's expectationsample space, a cosy atmosphere, and every need meticulously addressed. The sole regret we experienced was having to bid farewell.
The house is a home from home. Clean and well maintained to a high standard. Very private location. Couldn't fault the property or service provided. The owners are very friendly.
This is the most awesome holiday home! Everything you could ever want is there, plus the wonderful owners!!
Kathryn
We have just spent 2 weeks staying at Little Chestnut which is the perfect holiday home. In fact is one of the best properties we have stayed in. It was quiet, private and equipped with everything we needed for our stay. It was also immaculately clean which has not always been the case with a couple of previous properties we have stayed in. The added extras of the hot tub and sauna were very much enjoyed especially by our teenage son. The photos on Sykes do not do this place justice. We would definitely recommend and we hope to return very soon. It is a great base for exploring the Highlands. We have had a fabulous holiday. Thank you to Theresa & Ken for such a fabulous place.

Lovely clean property with outstanding facilities. Great base to tour the Highlands.

Little Chestnut was an amazing house,the perfect retreat and it was in a lovely location, it was well equipped with everything and more that you might need, plus added extras hot tub, sauna and a bbq hut. Lovely welcome gifts too. would highly recommend.
Well appointed cottage. Amazing hot tubsaunabbq facilitiy. Handy for touring Black Isle and the Highlands
Excellent facilities, very clean, easy to checkin and a great location. Everyone friendly both on arrival and leaving the place is very private with plenty of parking and the feeling that you are on the middle of a wooded park. You have everything you need and more with the hot tub and sauna in a brilliant separate facility for all weathers. The BBQ hut was brillianl and made you feel you we on Finland.
Fabulous house, amazing leisure suite with the barbecue cabin the icing on the cake! Owners available if you need them, but the house is still very private. Hope to stay again 5
Rachel
Lovely stay with fantastic facilities.
We greatly enjoyed our stay in Liitle Chesnut which is really a full size 3bedroom property, extremely well equipped and immaculately clean. Anyone who appreciates Quality, Style, and Good Planning need look no further than this property. The owners, Theresa, Ken, and daughter Louise are discreetly on hand next door if required, and yet you have total privacy. A lot of thought has gone into the presentation of the property and it shows throughout. In addition to a very comfortable home for your stay the location is excellent for day trips out should you wish, with easy access to east and west coasts, and a little further gets you to the top of the British mainland. Thanks very much to our hosts. Ann & David Wallwork
The property is absolutely stunning and finished to a very high standard. When entering the property it's clear that attention to detail and cleanliness is extremely important to the owners and this reflects through out the property. Everything you need is available including towels and bedding. There are also additional towels, robes and slippers available for use within the hot tub sauna which is a fantastic addition to the property as well as a bbq house. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay within Little Chessnut and wouldn't hesitate to book again.
Andrey

Nothing to say about accommodation only the poor service provided by Sykes Couldnt even respond to an email complaint or do anything to help us. Will certainly refrain from using their services any time soon even though we have booked over 30 holidays previously you certainly let us down this time.
