Escape to enchantmen­t at rural Scotland Airbnb

- By TJ Macias

It’s not every day an internatio­nal vacation rental likened to a warm “giant hug” pops up on your radar, but this isn’t your average rental.

It’s called the Hideaway Under the Stars, and it’s a charming, two-bedroom, five-bed, one-bathroom Airbnb tucked away in Scotland.

“Our enchanting and multiple award-winning hideaway is set in rural Moray at the foothills of Ben Rinnes with spectacula­r views from every window,” the listing for Hideaway Under the Stars says.

“It is truly unique, magical and architectu­rally designed to provide a fun and nurturing escape from the pressures of daily life. Likened to a giant hug. It’s a place that once you enter, you can’t help but smile!”

The pet-friendly space is “built to invoke total relaxation with its round shape, use of natural materials and open-plan design to bring families and friends effortless­ly together,” the listing adds.

Entertainm­ent is provided if you’re looking for something to do — other than exploring the surroundin­gs — like playing board games and reading. Free Wi-Fi is available.

The rental has a five-star rating, and many guests have been nothing short of impressed by their stays.

“This is a magical place to stay,” one person said. “The environmen­t and all the little attentions to details makes you feel loved and cared for. It is romantic and private and you most definitely feel relaxed and destressed after a visit.”

“This is truly a very unique and special place,” another guest said. “It felt warm and welcoming from the minute we stepped inside and for the next hour we kept spotting ‘new’ things around it.”

“Absolutely magic,” one commented. “Stayed there for 4 nights, could have easily done 40 more!

So peaceful, and loads of lovely walks close by. One of the best holidays we’ve ever had.”
