    All was great.

    Fabulous location above Loch Ness and a very short walk to the castle. Our hosts were excellent.

    Not the venues fault but if it had another bedroom it would be perfect for a family. We used the sofa bed each day. Saying that, I’d book again straight away as it’s great Maybe a draining board too 🤗.

    Everything was great. Good contact and info for the owners and good facilities at the house. Plus the house is lovely.

    Nothing could have been better... I don't say this often, but it was perfect in every way. :)

    From the clear communications, instructions of how to get in, easy to find, perfect location with Loch Ness views from the main sitting room and bedroom. The log burner was set up and ready to light, the central heating was perfectly set up, the Towels and Bed Linen were clean, and the entire accommodation was spotless and relaxing. Simon came around just to say hello and to make sure we had everything we needed and were able to ask any questions, and then just left us alone to enjoy. We felt comfortable enough to pop next door and ask if we needed anything, but equally, we didn't need to. The perfect level of welcome, support and being left alone to enjoy our time. For anyone wanting to maximise their stay by a visit to Urquhart Castle (5 mins away), Boat Cruise (5 mins away) and the Loch Ness Centre (5 mins away), it's simply the best location possible. I can't rate this place enough. Perfection. Thank you :)

    You have to be prepared to walk 2 miles into Drumnadrochit if you've no car but there is a local taxi driver who will transport you back to the house. This is especially important if you've been walking the Great Glen Way.

    We could not fault the accommodation . It is very comfortable and cosy and it feels as if you are completely at home. The location is very picturesque .Near Urquhart Castle. It is self catering and supplies are available at the local Co-Op. Would not hesitate to stay again.

    The photos to this property do not do it justice it just blows your mind when you are there in person Absolutely beautiful croft and the views from all angles are amazing 🤩 It has been a dream to come to loch Ness since I was 4 so for my expections to have been absolutely blown out the water just makes me beyond happy. I loved how close we were to the loch Ness. Annie and Simon were amazing at helping with the best places for food where to go and what to do. I shed a tear coming home because it has been the most perfect weekend I could ever of imagined. I will 100% be going back even if it was a 6 hour drive it was worth every minute.
