Honestly, we had a fantastic time! The cottage was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed, plus some lovely touches like the surprise supplies from Wendy. Its location is perfect for walks, especially with Plodda Falls just a short drive away - we went twice! Our dog was totally happy with the secure garden, which was a big plus. We all loved our stay and definitely plan to return. Highly recommend this place for a relaxing getaway!

Beautiful place, welcoming hosts, cosy home, photos don't show its charm.

We had an amazing stay at this charming little cottage. The location is perfect for exploring Loch Ness and the surrounding sights.

Everything was spotlessand there were plenty of facilities and equipment to make our stay comfortable. The hot tub was definitely a highlight!

We absolutely loved our stay here! The location near Loch Ness is perfect for a peaceful breakand the cottage itself was cosy and spotless. Our dog loved the secure gardenand we appreciated the well-stocked kitchen. The underfloor heating was a blessing, especially with the log burner for chilly evenings. The hot tub was great for relaxing after long walks. There are plenty of pubs and a supermarket nearbyand we enjoyed exploring the many trails straight from the doorstep with the maps provided. Definitely recommend!

Jamie

We spent ages searching for a pet-friendly place in a quiet town, but still close to amenities and a few casual bars. This place really was a find! It ticked all our boxes - super clean, private hot tuband a fenced garden perfect for our dog. Wendy was lovely, texting us ahead of check-in to let us know it was ready, which we really appreciated. She was friendly but not intrusive at all. Honestly, itâ€™s probably our best holiday rental so far!

From the moment we arrived, the place felt warm and cosy, making our stay truly special. We can't wait to come back soon!

James

What a charming cottage! Itâ€™s really well kept and has everything we needed, plus the hot tub was a lovely bonus and ready to go when we arrived. The owner was super helpful, answering all our questions about local spots and days out. There were loads of leaflets too, making planning easy. Weâ€™re already looking to come back!

James

We had a lovely stay at this cosy little cottage. It was well stocked with everything we needed, which was great. The owner was really friendly and helpful throughout. The arrival touch with Prosecco, cakeand biscuits was a nice surprise-made us feel welcome right away! Thereâ€™s a handy co-op just five minutes walkand a fantastic Italian nearby where we ordered a delicious pizza takeaway. Loch Ness Inn is right across the roadand we booked Saturday night early because it was busy. The centre of Drumnadrochit is only about 10-15 mins walkand Loch Ness is an easy 13-minute drive. Weâ€™d definitely come back!

Oliver

Just got back yesterday. What a fantastic cottage! The layout is great and itâ€™s in a brilliant location, really quiet. The standard is high all around, very cleanand Wendy, the owner, left loads of nice extras like cookies, strawberries, fudge cakeand prosecco! Lots of lovely touches, plus the tea, coffeeand pantry cupboard had useful things in it. There was plenty of cleaning stuff like dishwasher tablets and washing up liquid too. It was a very pleasant breakand the outdoor area with the amazing hot tub and dining space was a great way to unwind after a busy day. My 12-year-old twins absolutely loved it!

James

What a fantastic bungalow! The location was perfect, definitely a solid 10 out of 10.

Clara

There are lots of little extras that really made everything easier, like spices and cooking items. The location is super central but not right in the bustling city. We highly recommend it!

Sarah

This cottage is just lovely with fab amenities! The log burner kept the living room super warm and cosy. We absolutely loved the hot tub, which was in a nice enclosed garden. Plus, the Loch Ness Inn is just a five-minute walk away and it served good food and local beers!
