Lochside with beach access uninterrupted views of spectacular Highland Mountains
This cottage is a truly wonderful home from home with amazing views across the loch. We all love the lochside walks each day and there are so many great places to visit in the area - Steall falls, Glencoe, Glenfinnan Viaduct, Fort William, Mull, Skye to name but a few. The cottage is extremely well equipped so any rainy stay inside days are very comfortable.

House is loch side, semi detached , with lovely views and secure garden for dogs or children or both. Sadly the garden is not private, close neighbours & nearby hotel distract a wee bit from the overall tranquility.
Unfortunately during our stay we couldn’t easily walk far along the loch shoreline due to rocks, no beach to speak of, likely due to time of year.
Car essential.
House is comfortable & perfectly functional but decor is dated & towels very rough. Well equipped kitchen.
The owners were quick to correspond regarding payment, booking confirmation & checking in/out information.
Overall Our stay was enjoyable. The Glen Coe area is always reliable for stunning scenery & good dining.
We enjoyed The Kingshouse after walking all day.
West Highland Taxis are very reliable & good value.
Inverlochy Hotel is lovely for afternoon tea.

Wow! What an absolutely beautiful place to spend a week away with the family. The cottage is in such lovely quiet grounds where all you can hear are the waves lapping up onto the beach a stones throw from the cottage. We were able to watch the visiting Doe have her breakfast whilst having a morning coffee, just bliss. The cottage is ideally positioned, having close links to Fort Williams, Oban and Glencoe and 2hours drive to Skye. The cottage is clean, comfortable, spacious and incredibly well equipped with everything you could need, including a large secure garden for your four legged family members, a real home from home. We will most definitely be returning :).

The property has everything you would need for your stay. fantastic location but unfortunately due to the really bad weather we didn't get to enjoy the area.
Only a couple of issues. The heating had been preset to go off during the day and during the night. leaving the house extremely cold only having instructions to press the heater button to turn the heating back on for an hour at a time. does have a wood burner in the sitting room but the conservatory even with the heater was to cold to sit in and enjoy the view.
anyone going to stay please be aware that there is NO washing machine or tumble dryer as stated in details, not ideal when coming back from walking in really bad weather.
we had our 2 dogs with us but were not informed in the details or in email to owner that they were not to be left unattended in the property. Yes we do love our pets but being restricted to having to stay home every night for dinner was not ideal. Due to our work schedules we don't get to go out very often for meals etc so holiday's are the time for us to do these things. If we had been made aware the we couldn't leave the dogs in then i would not have booked the property. all being said the property is lovely and would be ideal in the warmer weather. Garden is enclosed but if you have a larger dog that tends to be a runner like our huskie then the wall is not high enough to keep them in, he went straight over the wall the first time we let him out in the garden in a bid for freedom.

We keep returning to this cottage as it is a truly wonderful home from home with amazing views across the loch. We all love the lochside walks each day and there are so many great places to visit in the area - Steall falls, Glencoe, Glenfinnan Viaduct, Fort William, Mull, Skye to name but a few. The cottage is extremely well equipped so any rainy stay inside days are very comfortable. We will return!

Das Cottage liegt direkt am Ufer der Loch Linnhe. Die Ausstattung ist vollumfänglich und lässt keine Wünsche offen. Fort William ist etwa 20 Minuten entfernt, Glencoe etwa 10. Alles in allem ein guter Ausgangspunkt für Wanderer.
