The Muckle Howf

The Muckle Howf is a traditional Scottish stone-built steading converted into a luxury holiday cottage, it is the result of a long-term project undertaken at Craighead by Ian, Heather and family. 

What makes it special is the setting combined with the very high standard achieved in the conversion of the steading, a key aim being to offer something special for visitors, a place to enjoy and relax, with access to the gardens.

With that in mind the design offers complete privacy but easy access. It optimises the wonderful views with its glazed gable end in the upstairs lounge and the master bedroom. Visitors are always welcome to call in at our own home for any help or advice they need. Open all year round with children welcomed.

You are surrounded by wildlife but should you wish to wander down to the pond, through the woodlands or up to the main garden you will come across our many animals such as our miniature donkeys or soay and ryeland sheep and our pygmy goats. Our two highland cows enjoy a titbit of bread in exchange for photo opportunities. 

There is plenty to do in the area with great access to main roads and railway, but if you don’t feel like leaving the Muckle Howf you can just enjoy the grounds and gardens of Craighead.

Dogs - Sorry but we can not accommodate dogs.
