A lovely holiday destination. Lodge has everything you could require, fantastic views and quiet surroundings too. We had quiet and interesting walks. Was perfect for visiting many beautiful places during our stay, blessed with 7 days of lovely weather also. Loved Inverness, Nairn, Drumnadrochit, Fort George and, of course, Loch Ness. Will be visiting again and would highly recommend staying at Ballagan Lodge

We had a wonderful time at this cottage – it was exactly what we were looking for. The location was easily located by car and ideal for exploring the area, peaceful yet not too remote. The cottage itself was spotless, very comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. What really made it special was the host – warm, welcoming, and incredibly helpful throughout our visit. We’d absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a cosy and convenient base in Inverness.
