this is a lovely cottage built into the loch side, complete with vegetated roof.loch side is beautiful and there is great outdoor space.warm in June despite poor weather.amazing shower!Couple of things to think about - the mugs and breakfast bowels are small - if you need a hearty bowl of cereal or decent size mug of coffee you might want to bring a mug and bowl; there is limited space for putting up the drying rack - which was really needed after a day out in the heavy rain!
