Could write an essay and wax lyrical about this cottage and its position on Loch Duich…everything you would need for your comfort inside the cottage and the view you are greeted with once you do step inside..well it is spectacular to say the least! Absolutely breathtaking views all round! When the weather cuts in, sitting in the lounge looking at the Five Sister’s range is just wonderful, and when outside cosily ensconced in the wildlife observation hut, it is even better..seeing the porpoises gently making their way up the Loch was such a delight! Cannot wait to go back to this piece of heaven.

Lovely cottage, spotlessly clean, well equipped kitchen, a very well maintained house. The highlight of the cottage is its wonderful view of the loch and mountains and there's a lots of wildlife to spot. When we were able to tear ourselves away from the views, we had beautiful trips to Skye, Plockton etc and Eilean Donan Castle is just down the road. Highly recommended.

A superb and comfy cottage with THE most spectacular view. A great location for exploring the area either on foot or by car. We will miss this place!
