Easter Cottage 

Positives first..  Beautiful area,lovely spacious cottage with many period furnishings, too big for two bur perfect for families and reasonably well equipped too,very comfortable bed and a very shower..
Negatives..  We spent two nights there's an I had hardly sleep,I'm not superstitious but while lying awake on the first night there were all sorts of noises coming from the loft and in one 3 or 4 heavy footsteps which defies explanation,it may sound ridiculous to some but I heard it and so did my partner and it made for an uncomfortable stay,the second night wasn't as bad as the first but there was one or two instances of hearing objects being dropped and at one point was on the verge of leaving in the middle of the night,very eerie and I felt so freaked out.. Mentioned this to the owner who obviously just laughed as if i was nuts and which i annoyed at but there is definitely a creepiness to the place..  If you like your paranormal give this cottage a try as you may get what you look for..  
Also road up to the place is poor and not for cars,more akin to 4x4 vehicles..   Would not return here..

Eerie experience 

Just returned from 4 nights in the Yurt. Bed was very comfortable, Yurt clean.  Log burner soon warmed the yurt on a night.  Good supply of crockery etc and an initial supply of teabags and coffee, which was appreciated. 
I would have liked a mirror in the yurt, as the one in the toilet/shower room is quite high up.  I am 5ft 4 and had to get on my toes to see.
There is no sockets in the yurt, so had to go across to the common room to charge phone and use a hairdryer.
Loved the beaver trail, which was one of the reasons for going.
We were very lucky with the weather, and not sure how I would have felt going to use the shower, toilet in the rain, and we were able to bbq, sit outside and enjoy the tranquility. 
Overall good value stay.

Peaceful, relaxing location

The Re-wilder's hut was peaceful with a very comfortable bed. An ideal place to spend time in a beautiful setting with loads of nature at hand. We saw three beavers and sat and watched them for ages in the twilight. Kitchen and bathroom facilities in the main house were also very good.

Peaceful wildlife weekend.

Stayed in The Gate Lodge Cottage to avoid the fireworks at home. A wee break with my daughter & dogs. Beautiful peaceful surroundings. Saw red squirrels on our morning walks & seeing them just made our day. Cottage was clean & tidy. No complaints. Fire was set up & basket of logs provided. Paul Ramsay the owner will visit after you have arrived. To check everything is ok & introduce himself. Then you are left to it. Should you require anything you can make contact. Honesty Shop well stocked. Highly Recommend Visiting! Especially if you want to just switch off from everyday life. Great place to recharge & enjoy the peaceful tranquil surroundings.  

Gate Lodge Cottage 

We stayed in the Hideaway, a gorgeous little hut with a comfortable bed, wood burning stove and a camping stove and enjoyed gorgeous walks on and around the estate. The highlight of course were the beavers, such beautiful and remarkable creatures. We particularly enjoyed our chance to walk along the river with Paul and had the chance to have our questions answered. Definitely a place to return to. 

Beaver trip

Met all expectations and more.  The Hideaway was very warm and cozy considering outside temperature of 1 degrees.  Well equiped for an off grid experience.  Arrived to catch the last of the October sunshine, fabulous walk around the estate, heard the beavers (alas too dark by then to see them).  Comfy bed, woodburning stove, camping stove with two rings and grill.  Off mains Loo and hot shower - clean and well equiped.  WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK FOR A LONGER STAY - CAN'T WAIT!

An excellent escape staying in The Hideaway

Bamff estate is the best place in Scotland to see wild beavers, and a woderful demonstration of what can be achieved by the rewilding of farmland. The Gate Lodge, where we have stayed on our last two visits, is simply and traditionally furnished and is welcoming and comfortable.

Bamff Gate Lodge

We stayed in north yurt which was advertised as ‘luxury’ on the website. I’m not sure that’s how I would describe it. Great for people who want to get back to nature but not luxury. 
No electric in the yurt which we weren’t prepared for. Also no WiFi or mobile signal so quite hard to contact anyone or do any research on the local area. 
The hosts were friendly and clearly enthusiastic and knowledgeable. Paul showed us around and was happy to answer any questions. 
Unfortunately I think the yurts may be better suited to a summer visit as my belongings are now permeated with a smell of damp despite having the wood burner lit. 
The wild lands walk along the beaver trail was very interesting and we saw the beavers twice, as well as seeing a lot of their activity (gnawed trees etc) which was interesting.
All in all probably excellent for someone from the city who wants to escape the rat race and get back to nature, but not the experience we were expecting from our booking.

North yurt

We stayed at Easter Bamff and loved it. The cottage is more roomy and comfortable than I had expected and we are keen to return.
One of the owners (Paul Ramsay) showed us around the rewilding project and what a nice gentleman he is. Very knowledgeable and clearly someone who is trying to live his values,

Great place

We stayed in the Gate Lodge (self catering) and were very comfortable there. The estate owners are very accommodating and it was stunning to see the beavers and red squirrels. The Gate Lodge has a small private garden.  There is good central heating and hot water, supplying ample for a shower or bath. A wood burning stove in the lounge provides a nice focal point.
