The 'perfect' Scottish cabin in the woods with hot tub you can book this summer
A cabin situated in a secluded location in a Scottish forest is currently available to book for a summer getaway. The unique accommodation has been described by one previous guest as "perfect".
The cabin is located in Ardross in the Scottish Highlands. It is approximately a 10-minute drive away from the town of Alness in Ross and Cromarty and 25 miles north of Inverness.
At the moment, holidaymakers can book a stay at the cabin through Airbnb. The accommodation is priced at £150 per night, with a minimum stay of two nights, plus additional cleaning and booking fees.
The cabin, which has been recently refurbished, is "full of character" according to the Airbnb listing. It sleeps up to two people, featuring one king-size bed.
Elsewhere, the property includes a living area with a "warm and cosy" wood burning stove. There is also a kitchen that features a range of appliances, as well as a bathroom with a walk-in shower.
Outside, the cabin is surrounded by idyllic woodlands. The property shares grounds with another wooden house, though has its own fully enclosed garden to give privacy.
One of the most notable features of the outdoor space is the hot tub. The jacuzzi offers green views out across the forest to enjoy.
There is also a large number of walks and beauty spots to check out in the surrounding area. Highlights include the picturesque Fyrish Monument, which offers incredible views over the Cromarty Firth, and the 18th century Ardross Castle.
While the Airbnb cabin will appeal to some holidaymakers, others may prefer to stay in a hotel with easier access to amenities. Fortunately, there are multiple accommodation options in Alness.
One of the most popular hotels in the town is The Station Hotel, which features 23 guest rooms and offers live music and steak nights. Elsewhere, the Tullochard Guest House is a four-star retreat with a garden and in-room Wi-Fi.
On Airbnb, the cabin is classed as a "guest favourite" property—meaning it is among the website's top properties based on ratings from visitors. The accommodation has an overall score of 4.96 out of five based on 185 reviews.
One happy guest shared: "We spontaneously booked this cabin as the weather was due to get bad and thank god it had availability.
"What a beautiful cabin with the perfect extras, especially the jacuzzi and wood burner. [They] just made it the most relaxing, cosy break for us and our dogs.
"The perfect place to unwind and regroup surrounded by woodland and peace and quiet. We will definitely be back!"
A previous review that was more mixed reads: "Overall we enjoyed our stay—however there are some improvements that could be made to make our stay five star, mainly in the comfort of the settee and chair provided."
Another positive write-up reads: "Lovely cottage in the middle of the forest! Well-equipped and very comfortable bed. We really enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub in the evenings."

Charles also met local sea cadets and Royal National Lifeboat Institution volunteers. The unveiling on Jubilee Pier came ahead of a reception in Fish Market Hall. The King will spend time meeting staff from the nuclear industry from Thurso. The visit was hosted by the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority. It marked the 70th anniversary of the Dounreay Nuclear site, the 50th anniversary of the establishment of the Pacific Nuclear Transport Limited (PNTL) company, and the 20th anniversary of the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority. Earlier this month the King stunned staff after popping into a luxury vegan chocolate shop during a recent trip to Scotland. Charles visited Campbelltown, in Argyll and Bute, while he was on a Royal tour north of the border. He visited different parts of the county over several days as part of the annual Holyrood Week, also known as 'Royal Week', which celebrates Scottish culture and local communities. More than a thousand people stood behind crash barriers to see the Monarch as he toured the town on July 3. He wore his own King Charles III tartan kilt especially for the visit, as he stopped by a number of shops in the area. And one place the King decided to pop into was Fetcha Chocolates - a store which specialises in vegan confectionery. King Charles visits luxury vegan chocolate shop in Scotland

Keir Starmer cuts off Donald Trump after Scotland trade deal comment
Speaking at a press conference after a meeting between the two leaders at the US president's golf course in Ayrshire, Trump was asked about the UK-US trade deal and the potential [[benefits]] for Scotland. A journalist asked: 'Because of your love of Scotland, is there a better trade deal to be done for Scottish businesses like whisky?' He then said: 'Well, I assume when we do our trade deal overall, a lot of it comes to Scotland. 'I hope maybe all of it should go to Scotland.' The Prime Minister then interrupted, saying: 'It's a very good deal for the whole United Kingdom and we have already achieved great things on the deal and we'll achieve even more as we work together.' Trump was also asked about the trade deal and its impact on Scotland ahead of the meeting, which led him to claim he has a 'great love' for the country and that he wants Scotland to "thrive". Pointing to the fact that his mother, Mary Anne, was born there, he said she would return to her homeland 'once a year' for a visit. He later added: 'So yeah, it gives me a feeling, you know it's different, you go to another country, you have no relationship to it … but it's different when your mother was born here.' Pushed again on whether that could mean a different deal for products such as whisky, Trump added: 'I was very particular, this is a part of the world I want to see thrive. It's going to thrive.' The meeting between the leaders comes as part of Trump's five-day-long private trip to Scotland. Afterwards, they will travel on together for a further private engagement in Aberdeen.
