Incredible Highland mountain & loch scenery, wilderness and wildlife. A real get-away-from-it-all retreat for families or couples.

Great location and a fantastic house
A great vacation despite the cool weather in June. We looked forward to this beautiful house after hiking or riding our motorcycles. Fantastic beds, much better than in most of the hotels I have stayed. We will definetly come back.
