Margaret Street Cottage
Margaret Street Cottage
Situated in the village of Avoch, on the Black Isle, on the shores of the inner Moray Firth, this traditional fisherman's cottage retains much of its late 19th century character and is fully modernised to a high standard. Located in a quiet street off the road to Fortrose, Rosemarkie and Cromarty, the cottage is in the old fishers part of the village on the shore of the Beauly Firth, close to the Cromarty and Moray Firths, acknowledged as one of the best places in Europe for spotting Bottlenose dolphins.
Margaret Street Cottage offers a peaceful and tranquil setting for a relaxing break whilst being only twenty minutes away for Inverness, the capital of the Scottish Highlands.
The cottage is a comfortable well equipped home from home and an ideal location as a base to explore the city of Inverness, Loch Ness, Nairn-side, the Black Isle and the wider Scottish Highlands.
The village has a convenience store, cash point, a couple of take-away food shops, restaurant and pub, church and bus stop for access to the Black Isle and Inverness

Miss M, Glasgow
A very nice little cottage with a good sized kitchen and cozy sitting room. OOh and lovely bouncy carpet in the twin room. :-)
Miss W, Kelso
After 7 hours long drive, we felt like at home straight away the minute
when we walked into the cottage - plenty of storage space; modern
cooking and laundry facilities; books, games and toys etc...
A lovely "home stay", which we definitely consider to revisit!
Mrs H, Cheshire
home from home... didnt need to bring anything apart from ourselves,was a
very long drive but worth it and was a nice little touch with fresh
milk and cookies left for us. was reconmended by a friend and would
deffently reconmend it to others.
This cottage in Margaret Street is a wee gem! Cosy and well appointed
and spotlessly clean. The location is perfect , next to harbour and
beach and minutes away from Indian and Chinese takeaway! Avoch is so
peaceful we had the beach to ourselves most days.
The Wilson Family, Glasgow
Convenience for exploring Black Isle and the Highlands. Cosy cottage in a
very friendly village.So good, we have now bought one. (a cottage that
is)
Always warm (we have only visited in the colder months)
Log burning stove is fabulous!!
Mr H, Reading
It is a homely, cosy and relatively modern place to stay, its always
nice to return to the cottage from the cold outside. It is quiet and
relaxing in Margaret St. yet you are still quite close to Inverness.
