An amazing cottage right on the banks of Loch Ness. Everything you could want. The peace and tranquility surrounded by the sound of wildlife and the lapping of the Loch needs to be experienced to be believed. I would recommend this place to anyone. Booking process was so easy and the owner Turan was easily contactable, helpful and friendly. I used it with my partner as a base for my participation in the Loch Ness marathon, but I would quite easily go again just for a proper holiday. 5 star rating without a doubt.

Thanks so much Joanna. It was lovely to host you for a second time and great to hear that you are as smitten with our unique magical spot on Loch Ness as we are. Really good to hear you intend to return. You join a small band of regular returners who see our wee cottage as their second home from home. Welcome back anytime.

A great location with amazing views of the loch and mountains. Saw a couple of great sunsets from the beach. A small quirky cottage filled with character. The road on this side of the loch is very narrow so take your time. Plenty of places to pull over and get the camera out.

Wonderful wee cottage

Loved our stay! Views are incredible- everything we needed for cooking meals was there. Water pressure in the shower was wonderful and it’s a gorgeous easy drive into Inverness for any adventure. Even had some wildlife visit- perfect wee cottage to enjoy quiet and nature!

Thanks so much for your visit and being such nice guests. We're delighted you liked the cottage so much. Yes, the location is indeed amazing, right on the banks of Loch Ness, with no road between us and the Loch. So pleased to hear the cottage had everything you needed. It is well-equipped and we try to think of everything holidaymakers might need. Welcome back any time.

Thanks so much for the great review Kim! We're delighted you loved the cottage so much, and its uniquely beautiful location, that it had everything you needed and that we communicated well before and during your stay. It is lovely to get such positive feedback. Thanks ! So ...... why only 4 stars? Do let us know what lost us one star with you (we are used to getting 5 stars) as we are always trying to improve. Thanks so much for your visit. It was a pleasure hosting you all. Welcome back any time. best wishes - Turan

Quiet Stay in a Beautiful Location

We had a lovely stay at this cottage. It is in a very secluded area and we enjoyed the quiet. The views of the loch are breathtaking! We enjoyed watching the pheasant run thru the yard daily. The bed is comfortable and we were very happy here!

Thanks so much for your visit and being such lovely guests. We're delighted you loved the cottage and its amazing location and that our local pheasant paid you visits. In the garden or on the beach, guests also sometimes see red squirrels, pine martens, deer and even once an otter.
