Beautiful UK holiday home named one of the most unique in the WORLD and people call it ‘heaven on Earth’

NESTLED in the Scottish Highlands is one of the quirkiest holiday homes in the country.

Eagle Brae is a Scottish hidden gem made up of beautiful log cabins that sit on a remote hillside.

It’s consistently rated as ‘the most unique luxury log cabin resort in Scotland‘ and made an appearance on Tripadvisor’s 2026 Best of the Best Awards this year.

It is part of the worldwide one of a kind category – and came in third on the list overall.

To make the cut, the hotel or holiday home has to be in the top one per cent of over eight million listings on Tripadvisor – so it’s a very impressive feat.

On Tripadvisor, Eagle Brae has 696 five-star reviews – one guest called it the “best place in Scotland” with others calling their stay “magical”, “faultless” and “heaven on Earth”.

The unique stay was described by Tripadvisor as “Hobbit-level cottagecore” thanks to its Middle-earth look.

Eagle Brae is made up of ten wooden log cabins with open-air decks and grass on the roof.

Inside all the cabins it’s very cosy with log burners, comfy sofas, plaid patterned curtains and cushions, with deer antlers hanging on the walls.

The larger cabins can sleep up to six people to suit family stays, smaller ones sleep up to two people – and dogs are welcome too.

The log cabins are self-catered, so each is kitted out with a fully-equipped kitchen.

There’s even a concierge service for anyone who wants a fully stocked pantry before arrival.

Eagle Brae is near Glen Affric National Nature Reserve and the River Farrar so there’s plenty of opportunity to do outdoor activities.

They offer guided canoe trips, black grouse safaris, pony trekking, mountain biking, clay pigeon shooting and even pony trekking.

At Eagle Brae and while exploring the area, you’re likely to spot wildlife like red deer and squirrels, pine martens and perhaps even a golden eagle.

Back at the log cabins, on a clear night, it’s possible to see the Northern Lights.

Rates for larger cabins like Aquila that sleeps six offer short breaks from £1,064.

Rates for Parus, which sleeps two, has short breaks from £833.
