New Holiday Homes to Rent at Mackays Self Catering Scotland For 2012

Online, April 8, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Mackays have added to their extensive list of Scottish holiday cottages for the summer of 2012. The emphasis is very much on luxury but spread across Scotland in a range of different styles of holiday cottages.

One of the jewels in the newly listed properties is Strontian on the Ardnamurchan peninsula in western Argyll. Set in a wonderfully peaceful location, high in the hills on a quiet no through road this 200-year old stable building has been beautifully converted to offer the ultimate holiday home. The house is completed to an exceptionally high standard to retain the original exterior and atmosphere, while incorporating every modern convenience. To maximise the unique location and views, all living areas are on the first floor.

A small stream runs through the extensive grounds which are regularly visited by red deer and wildcats, buzzards.
Mackays have also added a traditional, detached cottage in Lochinver, in the north west of Scotland. Conveniently situated on the quiet side of the bay, in this attractive fishing port, the beautiful waterfront and the working harbour where boats unload their catch at the fish market are the stuff of holiday romances. The large enclosed garden has a seating area looking out over the village and a pond.

In the picturesque hamlet of Achintraid, which lies along the shore of Loch Kishorn, surrounded by magnificent mountain scenery and seascapes, Mackays have found the charming and atmospheric detached cottage sitting across the quiet road from the water's edge. It enjoys panoramic views over the loch to the spectacular 'Pass of the Cattle' leading to the remote Applecross peninsula.

The accommodation with secluded rear patio and garden, combined with the wonderful location make it ideal for a relaxing family holiday.
Managing Director of Mackays, Steve Foster, commented "We are proud to add such beautiful properties to our portfolio and we are confident that we have the right cottage for anyone looking to holiday in our beautiful country."

Variety really is the key to Mackays' portfolio. They offer the widest selection of cottages in Scotland. So customers can stay in cottages from the Borders to the northern Highlands or the Western Isles to the centre of Edinburgh. The range of styles also offers something to everyone - from simple traditional Scottish croft cottages to large houses with pools on the banks of a loch.

All properties are checked by Mackays and the website featuring customer reviews allow visitors to make the right choice for their holiday. Customers can even look to see if the cottage they have chosen has a pub nearby or an open fire. Mackays have over forty years' experience in finding the right holiday cottage for its customers so customers can book with confidence.
