We loved this cottage and stayed 2 weeks. Our Hosts Margaret and Brian were a pleasure to meet and we had everything we needed. The cottage was spotlessly clean and Margaret was very supportive of us during storm Amy which hit while we were there, ensuring we had all we might need. We recommend this property fully.

A lovely clean, comfy, modern cottage in a peaceful and pretty location. Very considerate hosts who ensured we had everything we could possibly need and the welcome basket was really appreciated after our long drive. We would definitely return and recommend it to anyone thinking of visiting the area. We had some beautiful walks from the doorstep and also loved visiting Inverness, Glen Affic, Urqhart Castle and then Glenfinnan, Glencoe and Oban on the way home. Fantastic. We'll be back.
