About this property

Stunning modern spacious 2 bedroom cottage in heart of the highlands - Loch Ness

Newly reopened for Summer 2026 "Ard Beag" sits in lovely grounds with private garden among some of Scotland's most spectacular scenery and commands wonderful views across the surrounding mountains. With ample parking and only a short walk to the village, the house ensures that guests will enjoy the feeling of a remote setting while being within walking distance of local amenities and services.

The space
The house is cosy, comfortable, warm and welcoming. Many guests have commented upon the house feeling like a "home from home" and that it is "very well equipped".

The house has 2 bedrooms (1 with king size bed and 1 with 2 singles), both with views across the landscaped garden to the mountains beyond. Both have fitted wardrobes making the place perfectly suited to family holidays or small friendship groups looking for a peaceful retreat.

The house has very large reception rooms which include large living room with picture window out to the mountains; large, modern kitchen diner with table and chairs with modern appliances and lots of storage space.

The adjoining reading room/ study with comfortable furniture and lovely views towards the surrounding countryside ensures guests are always able to enjoy the beautiful setting, whatever the weather. The room also includes a dedicated workspace for those working remotely or needing a comfortable place to research their trip.

The house also benefits from a covered veranda which too looks out towards the surrounding mountains - a wonderful spot to sit for breakfast in the morning sun or likewise to enjoy a glass of wine as the sun goes down in the evening.

For guest safety and property security, there are cameras overlooking the car parking area from the main house sun room and a doorbell camera on the main door. They monitor the entrance and parking area only. Audio recording is disabled. They only activate on movement. Video is only kept if required by the police

Why they chose this property

Ard Beag captured our hearts immediately. With its spacious grounds, wonderful vistas, access to an amazing selection of outdoor activities, breath-taking lochs and glens (not to mention cosy, modern and comfortable interior), we knew this was the place for us. It is a warm, spacious house situated on the edge of a very attractive small town which has a lot to offer.

Another key reason for choosing this property is its location; being centrally located in the Highlands means that it is a relatively short drive to access a wide variety of activities and locations, for example: Skye and the Islands, Loch Ness, Inverness , Glencoe, Ben Nevis, Glen Affric, Applecross and the famous Harry Potter train journey to Mallaig. We chose this hose because it will ensure whoever stays there can be sure of an enjoyable stay, however long.

What makes this property unique

This is a very spacious house for what we believe is a very reasonable price. It has recently been decorated, has a well equipped modern kitchen, 2 bedrooms (1x King ans 1x twin) sleeping up to 4. It has a double bath and a double shower, large cosy living room and additional study/ sun room to the rear and a terrace with great views across the beautiful garden surrounding hills.
