Loch Ness stay

We had a lovely time in Drumnadrockit. Property was excellent with terrific views. The hot tub a definite plus. Hosts, Suzanne &Richard, we’re very informative but never intrusive. They told us to visit the Foddra falls in Glen Affric which were memorable. Still looking for Nessy! Hope to come back soon.

Amazing

We absolutely loved our stay here. The owners were beyond amazing and super helpful, nothing was to much to ask of them. The property was exactly as pictured plus extremely cosy. The hot tub and views were absolutely amazing too even when it was dark the clear nights showed the stars. Perfect for our honeymoon! Can't say enough about the owners and our stay we can't wait to be able to go back.x

Perfect short break

7 days of bliss in this very spacious accommodation with amazing views and hot tub. Everything you needed was provided including bath robes for hot tub, hosts were available for info but not intrusive. Walks from the doorstep, Drives to Skye, Glen Affric and Dornoch, sail on Loch Ness, eating out in the Loch Ness Inn. Just perfect.

A perfect stay

We stayed at the property for 5 nights in mid September and it was absolutely perfect! Richard and Suzanne were really helpful, always on hand if needed but also left us to it. It was very clean, spacious and very cosy. There were plenty of appliances, cutlery, pots and pans etc needed for the week. There were towels and tea towels and even dressing gowns for the hot tub (we brought our own not realising it would be so well equipped.) The views are amazing, so scenic, you’d never get used to such lovely views! The pictures online don’t do them justice... it’s just such a perfect spot with so much to see. The hot tub was a great addition to a lovely lodge and our favourite bit! With the location, it’s a very steep walk in to the town and back, but in the car only takes a few minutes and Drumnadrochit is lovely, a quaint little village with a few tea rooms, pub, gift shop, chemist and even a co op so you’re all set! You’re in a Great location for exploring. We visited Isle of Skye, Inverness and Culloden, all of which we thoroughly enjoyed. It was our first time visiting Scotland and we’ve recommended this property to all our family and friends, and cannot praise it enough, if you want some luxury and to see the real Scotland book here!

A little bit of heaven

Fabulous property! Comfy, spacious, spotless, modern, and with a view you never want to leave (in any weather!!) The icing on the cake is the hot tub! What an absolute treat to be wallowing in the lovely warm water whilst sipping wine and gazing at the view and the hare in the field below! The owners live next door and are so friendly , helpful and charming. Couldnt recommend it highly enough and will hopefully be back one day.
