Beautiful Dog-Friendly Self Catering House in the Highlands of Scotland

Welcome to Highland Annexe!

Do you crave relaxation, clean air, beautiful beaches, stunning forests, towering mountains and friendly locals? Then you need to come and stay with us in our two bedroom self catering holiday let in the Scottish Highlands!

We are Maggs and Dan, along with our two children. We moved here  from Suffolk , England on Boxing Day 2017. We wanted a different pace of life and a change so after initially wanting to self-build we found this house on the Black Isle and the rest is history!

We have for holiday rental a self-contained annexe that’s attached to our family home. The annexe is separated from us by an internal locked dividing door. You will have your own external entrance (2 entrances, actually).

We love dogs at Highland Annexe and it’s the most important factor in any booking to our children! We have no set maximum number of dogs – and haven’t yet hit a limit). We have an enclosed, fenced (with mesh between the slats)  part of the garden that is specifically for our four legged guests and can be accessed directly from the Annexe. We leave spare bowls, blankets and towels in case you’ve left anything at home and will point you in the right direction for stunning dog walks right from the front door.

Spacious, bright, airy, spotlessly clean accommodation with a large, enclosed dog safe garden.We really enjoyed our fortnights stay in the Highland Annexe. Lovely variety of beach or woodland walks, our dog had a blast!! The Allengrange Hotel in the nearby village has a lovely atmosphere and was very dog friendly, serving good food. Rosemarkie beach walking in either direction is stunning, we managed to see the dolphins twice at Channory point. Maggs and Dan were extremely welcoming and helpful. This is a gem of a place to stay snd enjoy the surrounding area, no hesitation in reccomending it.

Lovely holiday here with our four dogs. The large garden is a lovely safe space for them to sniff. The accommodation is beautifully equipped, especially the kitchen. Great location for exploring the Black Isle and beyond

Really enjoyed a few days here with my hubby and wee dog. After a very friendly greeting we found the annexe to be really modern, clean, quiet and comfy. It felt very spacious and light with everything you need, a real home from home. The enclosed garden is massive and our wee dog loved it. The large windows in the sitting room allowed us to stay comfy and warm while we watched hime enjoy running around. Would highly recommend a visit.

Excellent facilities, great and prompt service from Maggs and Dan, situated in beautiful surroundings, a real oasis of calm. The house is bright and spacious and the kitchen has everything you could possibly need. Lovely personal touches too on our arrival for the humans as well as dogs. Fab Forrest walks on your doorstep and a short drive to the beach. Our only complaint is that we didn’t stay long enough 😊

We had a lovely weeks stay at The Highland Annexe. Absolutely beautiful, comfortable place and our dogs loved exploring the huge garden. The wet room is AMAZING and the kitchen is the best equipped kitchen we’ve ever stopped in. Lovely comfortable bed and had the best nights sleep for a very long time. Lots of beautiful places to explore and The Bad Girl Bakery is an absolute must ☺️ then pop along to Robertsons larder farm shop to see the 2 beautiful Highland Coo’s called Jamie Mackenzie Fraser and Katie Morag and of course the farm shop. Maggs,Dan,Tilda and Ella were so welcoming and helpful and the dogs loved them. Thank you for a lovely holiday, we will be back one day.

The Highland Annexe has everthing you could possibly need for a truly relaxing, luxury break in the Highlands. The attention to detail is second to none as is the warmth of the welcome. Home made bread and hand-made soaps - simply amazing! We loved it, Layla the cockapoo loved it and it has to be the best self-catering holiday accommodation on the Black Isle.

Super place to stay for both humans and dogs. Lovely accommodation, such welcoming hosts and a big enclosed garden for the dogs to play in.

Really a very lovely, clean and comfortable property! By far the most well equipped accommodation, full of thoughtful touches, that we’ve ever stayed in. Hosts were friendly and available as needed, ready with recommendations for sights and dining in the area. Highland Annexe is definitely on our list for a return visit!
