This property offers access to a patio, free private parking and free WiFi. The property is non-smoking and is located 7.9 km from Inverness Castle.

The cottage is very charming and spotless, set in a beautiful and peaceful location, overlooking the loch. We loved the many birds visiting the garden and the highland cows in the paddock behind. We did a lovely walk along the water and got talking to some really interesting locals. The shop next door makes a nice hot chocolate and has some nice souvenirs, better quality than in the other stores in the area. We heard the history of the cottage from a lady in the store: although it would be lovely to have a young family living there, at least we felt we were contributing to the community in a small way.

    Everything was perfect right down to the host who was lovely, and had loads of local knowledge including dining recommendations! The room was open plan with a freestanding bath and decorated beautifully. Breakfast was amazing, fresh tasty food cooked perfectly. We also got little bottles of prosecco in our room which was a lovely touch for our anniversary, it was a perfect little romantic getaway. I would love to go back again and would recommend staying here 100%.

    We loved everything, the room was cosy, having the balcony was lovely and the view was the bonus. The location was perfect, and loads of activities around. The personal touches in the room were lovely. There was a great selection for breakfast and was great to have fresh milk and water in the room in the little fridge. It was also nice to see the hosts on site and to speak to in the morning about the area and have a news.

    Really incredible ! If we could, we'd give 20/10 ! The service, the scenery were excellent and we really appreciate the kindness of the owners ! It was so relaxing to stay there as if we stayed at our family country house. The owners are incredible if you have the chance to stay at their BnB, do not hesitate a second ! Between the great view, the fresh air, the delicious scent of the porridge in the morning and the warmness of the house (and their inhabitants), we were more relaxed than ever !

    The breakfast had a lovely variety of continental and cooked. Catered towards dietary needs also, with fresh coffee through a cafetière. The location was lovely, out in the country away from traffic. About a 40 minute walk to the local village. Cosy comfy rooms that felt like home away from home.
