It was brilliant to have such a luxurious stay, we were sad to leave. The weather was beautiful whole week and we regret that we haven’t really stayed indoors much to benefit from all the amazing facilities yet! The sauna was fantastic after an active day out! We enjoyed every bit of the house, and the surrounding area is great for an explore- smoo cave, Ben Hope Arkal and other corbets, cycle ride down loch hope and back up loch loyal into Tongue was fantastic! The hospitality Gillie and Lin showed us in easy communication before we arrived and help while we were there made everything so easy and we feel so spoilt. Thank you so much.

What a glorious week you had in every aspect from wall to wall sunshine, and perfect cycling and walking weather. Nothing like this week to introduce friends to the highlands! Glad the sauna was able to ease those stiff muscles, you will have to book massages next time! The variety of different trips you managed to cover certainly shows what an ideal position the Lodge is to base a holiday. Glad you found everything you needed and felt we had helped you with all your queries before arriving. Thank you for booking with us and looking after everything at the lodge so well.

Beautiful property. We were a family of 11, various ages and the property suited all of us . The bathrooms and bedrooms were all of a high standard, all en-suite. They were all various styles of decor and each one was very nice. The seats were comfy, sometimes in rented properties the host holds on to furniture longer than they should, but this was not the case here! The kitchen was brilliantly equipped and you could have cooked anything on the big range. 3 dishwashers in total and a walk in fridge was pretty impressive . We enjoyed the sauna after walks on the beach. We have absolutely no negative comments and can highly recommend this property .

Thank you for choosing us for your family holiday and hope it confirmed holidaying in the Highlands is great fun!
