The views from the cabin were magnificent; waking up every morning to such an array of birds and the deer on our doorstep was lovely. We could have stayed in the cabin all day with how great they were but the activities were also well worth it. Would particularly recommend the canoeing. The meals from reception were also delicious.

The most wonderful experience, we fell n love with our cabin, Tringa, on sight. Shortly after settling in, we had a couple of curious deers come up to our terrace & look in at us, the feeling was overwhelming. The cabins are finished to a high standard & have everything you need for a comfortable stay. We tried the Concierge Service s couple of times, the selection of food was good & tasted wonderful. The friendly helpful staff made it an experience to cherish. We’ll definitely return. 💖

Our second stay at Eagle Brae and it was just as amazing. This time we stayed in Ardea which was beautifully situated, with gorgeous views and daily sightings of the deer and a variety of birds. The sauna was a real treat at the end of the day. We sampled the delights of Mike and Pawana's home cooking - the venison curry was delicious and just what we needed on a cold November evening! A walk amongst the trees at Plodda Falls gave us some beautiful Autumn colours and a drive up Glen Strathfarrar provided us with sightings of up to 200 stags. Once again, we didn't want to leave this beautiful place, it is so special and unique. Needless to say, we will be back!

We had been looking forward to this trip for nearly a year and Eagle Brae did not disappoint! What a fantastic place to stay, even for a few days. The most chilled out we've ever been, in fantastic surroundings too. Reading through the guest book, nobody ever wanted to leave and neither did we! Perfect for the dogs too. The tame deer wandering around made it pure magic. Can't wait to come back.

Location and accommodation just perfect, tranquil and very scenic. Lodges well equipped and spacious. Eagle Brae is a place where you start to unwind the moment you start to unpack the car and good for your soul. First visit but know it won’t be our last. The canoeing guided tour a real must, Tobias our guide was amazing and friendly. Thank you all for providing such a beautiful place x

We’ve had the most wonderful few days staying in Strix. It honestly felt as though we were the first to stay as it was so clean and well kept. The surroundings were equally as perfect and we especially loved watching the deer munching on moss outside our cabin. The area is breathtaking - highlights have been Glen Affric, Plodda Falls and most especially our guided canoe tour of The Aigas Gorge with Tobias from Adventure Highland. We definitely will be returning.

Truly stunning in every way. Absolutely perfect and exactly as pictured on the website, if not better! The location and cabins were beautiful - so peaceful and immersed in nature. Everything had been thought about with no detail missed. The cabin was incredible - finished to such a high quality, very spacious but at the same time very cosy and comfortable. Very eco conscious and considerate to the environment too which was great to see. We saw deer around our cabin most days, and lots of birds feeding right outside. We absolutely loved it there and will 100% be returning. I could happily live there.

First visit to this incredible place and it won’t be our last. My husband and I, together with our dog, stayed in Tringa for 5 nights and can only echo all of the previous 5 star reviews. The cabin was stunning, the bed was the comfiest I’ve slept in, the welcome hamper was a lovely touch and the view from the deck was breathtaking. We had daily visits from the deer who came to eat the mushrooms on the slopes outside our cabin. The option to pre order home cooked meals took away the burden of cooking, we ordered several dishes including crofters pie, venison stew and, my favourite, Monkfish. All were delicious. Thanks to Ian for his tips on places to see, Glen Strathfarrar and Monar Dam were impressive and well worth the visit. There was nothing better than exploring the sights of the Highlands then going back to the cabin and cosying up in front of the fire. Let the countdown begin for next years visit.…

Eagle Brae did not disappoint on any aspect: wonderful cabins with all comforts, glorious setting with the darkest skies, with the utmost peace - until disturbed by rutting stag sounds! Great advice from Mike on places to visit and lovely concierge meals when too lazy to cook in the lovely kitchen. Genuine attention to sustainability is inspirational but not pious - came away with a drive to do more and better to protect the landscape and wildlife so evident in this area. The most tranquil setting, and most restorative holiday ever.

Truly, one of, if not the best self catering experiences we have had... and we've had a few! The cabin, Tringa (sleeps two) was magnificently appointed and scrupulously clean. Within a very short time of our arrival, we were greeted by red deer peering in at us from the deck! An event repeated almost every day! A few days later, we were treated to an eagle landing in the tree across the track from the cabin, a real highlight! The welcome pack was brilliant, containing some super goodies to tempt all tastes. During our stay, everything worked efficiently throughout the property, whether it be the heating, appliances, or indeed the in house concierge service! ( not always the case!) The concierge service was particularly useful, especially as the nearest shops were a few miles away. And ordering some fresh fish from the fish man from Scrabster on a thursday was also a treat. The bed was super comfy, and the study area/TV viewing lounge upstairs was a real bonus, as was the super large TV! Indeed, all was perfect except perhaps the weather on occasions, but we were able to do pretty much everything we planned to do. The team at Eagle Brae were very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. Even the bird seed in the feeders was refilled regularly, thus ensuring we could continue to watch the colourful woodpeckers feasting all day long! All in all, it was a week of superlatives, best accomodation, best views, best customer care, and idyllic for our spaniel dog, who was made very welcome indeed! We will be back, very soon... next May to be exact!!!!…
