Really homely cottage in the woods
on Wednesday, 10 Jun 2026
We really enjoyed our stay at Mallard, 3 generations and a dog. The location is quiet and gives fantastic access to wonderful walks straight from the door. The garden is large and fully enclosed so great for families with dogs and young children, we saw a red squirrel and our Grandson was delighted to see the pine marten which visited most evenings about 9 pm.
Location really good, plenty to do only a short drive away.
Only criticism is please could you supply a pen with the visitor book, we would love to have left a message for the owners to thank them for a lovely stay and the wonderful cake they left for us and to advise them that the blackout lining on bedroom curtains needs some attention, other than that a 5* holiday.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. We’re delighted to hear that all three generations and the dog enjoyed your stay at Mallard.
It sounds as though you made the most of the wonderful location, walks from the door and enclosed garden, and how special to see both a red squirrel and the pine marten during your stay.
Thank you also for highlighting the issue with the blackout lining on the bedroom curtains, and for mentioning the missing pen for the visitor book. We have passed this on to the maintenance team to follow up on.
We’re so pleased you had a 5-star holiday and hope to welcome you back again in the future.

Great cottage..great location
on Tuesday, 19 May 2026
We had a lovely stay at Mallard, there is plenty to do in the area and the countryside is just awesome. The grandchildren loved the garden and exploring the woods. The wildlife in the garden was a delight, especially the woodpecker and pine martin. (Also saw a capercaillie on one of my cycle rides) We enjoyed to cycling and trips to Loc Garten for walks and to see the Osprey. Would definitely book again.
We are delighted you enjoyed your stay at Mallard, thank you for leaving a top mark review! Boat of Garten is a lovely village surround by woodland which makes it ideal for a bit of wildlife spotting. Due to their rarirty, Capercaille are a protected species and have a bit of a reputation for "not being particularly friendly" - you are lucky to have had a sighting :)

Highly recommended

Excellent location, with a fantastic garden. We saw deer, red Squirrels and many small birds from the garden. The cottage is very comfortable and light, well equipped with particular attention to detail. Beautiful plates, mugs and bowls, a good variety of utensils.
Thank you for leaving such a positive review of your stay at Mallard. The owners have put a lot of thought into ensuring guest comfort both in and outside the house which is why the reviews are so good! We hope to welcome you back again in the future.
