Absolutely outstanding, a perfect welcoming cottage with an amazing host. Beginning to end George was amazing and so helpful. Perfectly located for visiting all areas or jumping on a ferry to visit the islands with amazing views over the water right from the windows. Lovely, warm and cosy, I can’t recommend this place and its host enough. We will definitely be returning.Thank you.

We had an amazing week in this beautiful cottage. It was very well equipped, especially for a young family and it was in a lovely location. The views were spectacular and we were within half an hour of fort william and closed to the hills and walks we wanted to do. Would definitely book again for another brilliant adventure!

The location was spot on, you are within 30 minutes of all the places to walk and visit. It was nice to have a fully stocked kitchen, all the drawers and cupboards full of all you needed, it was a nice change.The only thing is the bed is small, I had to sleep in the spare room, and the sofas don't really allow you to curl up snugly and watch the TV in the evening. But i wouldnt let that stop you, we would go there again.
