The lochside location was perfect, as was the fact that it is halfway between Fort William and Inverness and just a 1 hour drive from Skye. The only thing that could improve the experience would be the addition of a microwave oven in the kitchen. Our thanks to the owner for providing a perfect location for a wonderful holiday.

Extremely delighted with our week there and will definitely return. Highlights include wood burner, great appliances and fittings all to a very high standard. I thought I was in a palace! There are a few things that we think would be beneficial: 1. King size bed but it was still extremely comfy. 2. Some garden furniture for those sunny days 3. Bushes trimmed on driveway at front of house and at entrance.
