Woodward family – August

“A lovely time was had by all. The website doesn’t do the house justice as its much bigger that we thought. We were pleasantly surprised by the location of the house and Buxton has everything.”

Jenny Parfitt – February 2022

"Netherwood has the best stocked kitchen we have ever had in a holiday rental; absolutely everything we would need, in multiples! Lovely crockery too, which is a welcome change. The beds were comfy and lovely linen. An abundance of fluffy towels too is a rarity!

Tom Smyth – October 2021

"We had a great stay at Netherwood . The property was very clean and extremely well stocked with kitchen equipment.
It is in a fantastic location with easy walking to local facilities and of course wonderful views of the "Glens" right on our doorstep. We would definitely visit again .

"Warm & friendly place, great for a longer stay or special occasion. Lovely location, easy shopping near by. Walks from the doorstep and nature to the fore. It was lovely having some red squirrels as neighbours!"

Roger K – August 2021

“Netherwood is absolutely fantastic. Can't wait to return."

Ms Carol Stirrat- August 2021

“Netherwood House is the quintessential escape to the Highlands, a true oasis of Scottishdom. The real McCoy from the warmth of the aga after a brisk walk up the Glen in the cool of the air, or a night of reciting Scottish poetry and song around the dining table over a glass of malt. You might even bump into Rob, a true highlander, enjoying pipe music and no tourism in sight. Sl àinte mh òr.”

Karine – August 2021

“Netherwood is the most amazing place! Immaculately clean and well cared for. Absolute luxury in the most beautiful setting. Just a short walk away from breath-taking scenery, horse riding and canoeing just round the corner. The perfect home away from home.

Mrs Kay Robertson – July 2021

‘We spent a wonderful week at Netherwood. The house is just amazing...beautifully appointed, spacious and comfortable. The owners have thought of everything to make the home a great place for a holiday. Our family group ranged in age from 17 years to 90 years and there was so much for all to enjoy in the local area. We have already booked for next year!’

Mr & Customer via Travel Agency – July 2021

‘Very spacious and cosy house. Kids loved running around both inside and outside. Gorgeous Scottish flavoured fudge left out for guests arrival. Great outdoor dining area for bbq. Swing set for kids in garden. Great location. Just a short walk to the local shops and lots of lovely walks/beaches.’

Mr & Customer via Travel Agency – June 2021

‘Great house really like home with a lovely relaxing fire to sit in front of after a long day.’

Mr & Mrs Westland – October 2020

“Netherwood is a truly spectacular house with everything it's guests could hope and wish for. The house and grounds are situated in a wonderful setting providing the best welcome the Highlands can offer.

Cleaning, furnishings and decor are done to the highest standards. A special mention to the housekeeper Catherine who was extremely helpful and was able to provide extra towels on request.

We recommend the excellent local golf course and the Wildcat trail/search is a must. (It is worth mentioning that due to Covid, most attractions need to be booked in advance).

Mr & Mrs Hill – October 2020

“Netherwood is a very comfortable and well appointed house and everything you could want for your stay is provided for. We recommend a visit to the Highland Folk Museum.
