The Scottish Highlands is easily one of the most beautiful parts of the UK.
Known for its great peaks, medieval castles, and magical folklore, there are endless places to explore in this enchanted corner of the world.
And what better place to start than with Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park which is just a stone’s throw from Glasgow?
If you’re looking for somewhere nearby to stay, I’d highly encourage booking a stay at the beautiful Cape Gare, one of Classic Cottages’ holiday cottages in Scotland.

What is Cape Gare?
Cape Gare is one of many incredible places to stay in Argyll and Bute, a stunning region in the western Scottish Highlands home to 23 inhabited islands.
It’s a one-bed lochside cottage sitting on the edge of Gare Loch, an open sea loch with a fjord-like appearance.
The perfect place for a romantic escape with your loved one, Cape Gare is relatively unassuming from the outside but once inside, you’ll find the most modern, beautifully decorated property.
Prices start from £996 for seven nights and it’s well worth every penny!
So let’s step inside, shall we?
Living room
As soon as you enter the cottage, your eyes will be drawn towards the mesmerising water and mountain views through the floor-to-ceiling sliding doors.
The stylish open-plan living room contains everything you need for a comfortable stay including a sofa, coffee table, dining room table, and a large Smart TV with Sky Package.
Of course, the main pull to the property is the loch views, and where better to enjoy them from than the comfort of the plush recliner sofa?
Kitchen
If cooking is your love language, you’ll fall head over heels for Cape Gare’s kitchen.
Open up the fridge and you’ll be met by lots of lovely goodies including a complimentary bottle of wine.
It’d be rude not to crack it open, right?!
The kitchen contains an induction hob, electric oven, microwave, dishwasher, and washing machine, so you have everything you need to cook up a storm (and clean up afterwards!).
Bedroom
Aside from the view, Cape Goch’s other highlight has to be the gorgeous king-size bed.
Decorated in calming shades of blue, the bedroom invites an amazing night’s sleep, not least thanks to the most comfortable mattress.
In the bedroom, you’ll also find another Smart TV, a spacious wardrobe, and a dressing room table so you can prepare for the day’s adventures in style!
Bathroom
Like the rest of the property, the bathroom is modern and well-equipped with a spacious hot shower, sumptuous towels, gorgeous complimentary toiletries, and a spacious vanity and sink area.
What more could you possibly ask for?
Outdoor space
Last but by no means least, the outdoor space is something to marvel at.
You’ll want to spend most of your time here admiring the view, and luckily, there’s no shortage of places to enjoy it!
From a table and chairs and a picnic table to a BBQ and private garden area, there are plenty of places to kick back and relax.
Al fresco dining?
Yes, please!
As part of your booking, you also get free access to the five-star Carrick Spa, Country Club & Golf Course, making your stay even more special and romantic.
Who can say no to a post-hike dip, after all?
