    And we had a wonderful time seeing otters, seals, and all manner of water birds down on the loch. Would definitely return.

  • Matthew

    The property had everything we could possibly need for a great holiday - the location was incredible, made a great base for exploring the island - we were very sad to leave!!

  • Jeremy

    Good location, well fitted out and quiet too as set beneath the A87. Weather typically Scottish Highlands, but that did not diminish our enjoyment. My constructive suggestion for improvement - clear the garden area down to the loch to make it a little more child friendly.
