The Brigs

 

The perfect base to enjoy Sutherland at its best

 

Hill and coastal walking, fishing, deer stalking, bird watching, sea trips and kayaking, sight seeing, photography, painting, soaking up the history and culture of the Highlands - all available locally.

 

Located 500 metres up an unmade croft access road, the cottage is uniquely situated to enjoy the beauty and tranquility of the area.  The views in all directions are stunning. Wildlife abounds.  Foxes, badgers and deer can frequently be seen on the surrounding croft, buzzards soar overhead, and a wealth of stonechats, warblers, swallows, bunting, wagtails and wheatears visit in their seasons.

 

The best months to visit are May and June when the sun is high in the sky, the days are long,  with short starry night skies, birds breeding, excellent walking and fishing - all subject to the highland weather of course, but average daylight hours and clear days well exceed those of July and August.

Guest Impressions:-

 

We had a great time on holiday and have promised ourselves to go back sometime. The house was fabulous, well equipped and very comfortable. There's not much more could have been provided and the information was more than sufficient. I'll definitely be recommending your property to friends and family.

 

Weather excellent in the main and we had a great break. Good location. Even spotted a resident badger in the fields outside the house!

 

Happy to recommend your cottage to friends. The location is fantastic.

 

We had such a great time. May we book the same weeks next year?

 

A second fantastic holiday here with 2 weeks great weather. So many wonderful walks and lots of wildlife. Lovely trip to Handa once again.

 

Lots of beach trips and swimming in the sea. Went on evening wildlife/fishing trip with Paul from Handa Island ferry - 100 dolphins and porpoise around the boat - fantastic for the kids and well worth the £50 for 4 for 2 hours. They also sell lobsters and other shell fish.

 

Great Location, wildlife, hills, lochs, sea - fantastic. Good fishing for mackerel, pollock & brown trout. Spotted dolphins, porpoises and sea eagles off Stoer.  Guest stars Basil Brush, Stinky the Badger & Vladimir the Common Gull were frequent visitors

 

Wonderful week with our family here at the Brigs. The house had everything we needed. Thank you.

 

A great week despite mixed weather. Amazing house. Superb location. Very comfortable and enjoyable time. Thank you.

 

Amazing place. Stunning views from the house. Saw deer and seals. Don't want to go home. Will certainly come back again.
