The cottage was very comfortable with a lovely view. There was plenty of room for my dogs to bound around outside. The bathroom as spacious and the shower was decent. Master bed mattress was a bit more solid than I'm used to, but I still slept well. Owner was very nice and welcoming. The door wouldnt stay open, but that was easily remedied. Local aRead morerea was nice enough, that big bus is an eyesore though, what is it even there for? Somewhere for the local drinkers to sit when it rains? Who knows. Hide

What a lovely lodge very peaceful and great views. On our arrival we were met with Miss Muir who was very helpful running through all the necessary info for the lodge and was also available on the mobile with any issues. This is definitely 1 of the best holidays we have had in the Highlands due to the lodge and area for walking and sightseeing.
