We had a wonderful time at Temple House.
We had a wonderful time at Temple House. It is a really lovely place in a fabulous location overlooking Loch Ness. The owners are lovely, so welcoming and very helpful. It is well equipped and extremely comfortable. The views from the garden over Loch Ness are magnificent and the Great Glen Way is accessible from the garden. We all had a really relaxing few days , including the doggies and will definitely be coming back.

Temple House West is a very comfortable, warm and well-appointed cottage wherein we felt immediately at home. The interior is tastefully and appropriately furnished and we had everything we needed for our stay. One of the most notable points about this lovely cottage is the view – from the sitting room and main bedroom you can see right across Loch Ness to Urquhart Castle which is probably one of the loch’s most well-known viewpoints. The light constantly changes on the water and the sky and there was always something new to look at. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Temple House West and enjoyed meeting our hosts who were very helpful.

Comfortable and well equipped cottage, ideal base for touring The Highlands.
If you take a dog, check the gate in the hedge is closed as there is a drop onto the busy main road, and the garden is not enclosed.

Friendly host and comfortable cottage.
Friendly host and comfortable cottage.
Stunning location with lots of walks - a couple of miles from the main village centre which has a couple of pubs, chemist, a large co-op, and a deli so it was easy to pick up supplies.
Brought our dog with us - we had to be aware that the garden is not fully enclosed but apart from that, there were no issues.

The owners are lovely people and on our stay they where always there if needed.
We were out all day though and only really stayed inside for a little breakfast before heading out
and then at night planned our next day so the cottage had everything we needed as a base

Andy, William, Bilbo (dog) and I enjoyed a wonderful week at Temple House West. We received a warm and courteous welcome by the owner and felt at home immediately. Temple House West is a quaint, endearing and appropriate cottage located within moments of Loch Ness...fabulous to be able to see this loch upon wakening each morning. Ideally situated for dog walks with a marvellous nature trail close by.
Cannot fault this accommodation.
