We've just left here this morning and are so sad to go. The house was fabulous with amazing views of the bridge and hills. With the Beauly Firth lapping against the back patio. The top floor was so peaceful and of course stunning views of the bridge at night. If your thinking of booking this beautiful property, don't hesitate. Highly recommended.

Tangle Tower is a lovely holiday home. The views are fantastic. Just sitting looking at the view made our holiday. Only problem for me was the two steps to the bathroom, which I found very hard to get up. A grab rail would have helped greatly. Rest of the family thought the upper floors were lovely, especially the top viewing floor.
