The location of this property is perfect. The property itself is pretty basic and the kitchen not well equipped when compared against other properties we have stayed in. It should also be noted that there is not a washer/dryer as stated on cottages.com website, it is just a washing machine. We didn't find the mattress on the bed comfortable, it could do with a mattress topper. We also felt it could be cleaner. However for what we paid and the location of the property we would stay here again.

Lovely holiday let right beside one of our favourite places, Fort Augustus. Right at the opening of the Loch ness so plenty to do and see. Eric was a great host and made sure we had all the information needed and was even on hand on day after arrival, if we had any issues, but we had none at all. The holiday let was clean, comfortable and had everything needed for our stay including a couple of extra home essentials. Would definately recommend and go back there to stay in a heartbeat. The only thing I would recommend is an outside washing line for each flat, as only a washing machine in our property and not a washer dryer.
