The Scottish Highlands offer beautiful views from every angle, and this retreat, close to the small village of Kiltarlity and the famous Loch Ness, provides just that. Set in a secluded spot, within reach of the North Coast 500, this is the perfect location for escapists. Whether you are a family of three, a couple, or even fancy a solo trip in pure solitude, this is ideally located.

This single-storey lodge is beautifully styled with a bright and airy, open-plan living space. It is decorated with neutral tones throughout and each room has an opulent feel to it with contemporary furnishings. Two dogs are welcome along for the trip too, and countryside adventures aren’t far away. There truly is nothing within view of this property except for trees and rolling countryside.

After your legs are tired from busy days exploring the dramatic landscape, head into the hallway where you can kick off your boots and hang up your coats. Floor-to-ceiling windows in the living area offer great opportunities for wildlife watching and flood the space with light. The chich kitchen area is perfect for cooking up hearty stovies or Scotch pies to be enjoyed around the dining table. On chilly evenings, light up the wood burner-effect electric fire with infrared heating and curl up on the comfortable sofa or armchair. Climb into bed in one of the two bedrooms – a spacious master with a double bed and a Smart TV, and a cosy single bedroom. Completing the interior is a modern shower room with a walk-in shower.

Whether you fancy a morning coffee or an al fresco dinner, you can spend time soaking up the sounds and views from the garden. Bench-style seating is provided alongside a large lawn space. Private parking is provided for three cars.

A perfect stay at the most beautiful cottage. One of the best places weve experienced - a true haven in the highlands. Clean, cosy, modern, well equipped and set in a peaceful location surrounded by woodland (but not too far from amenities and tourist spots). We loved it and hope to come back.

Absolutely perfect cottage. Everything immaculate. Great heating system which was needed in the heavy snow. Views were lovely. The owners took time to make sure we had all we needed and cleared the snow from the track with the tractor.. Highly recommended.

We had a lovely break in this idyllic part of the Highlands ideally situated for exploring the sights around Loch Ness. Hosts were extremely helpful before, during and after the stay and plenty of information was provided so we were well prepared and felt at home. There were many thoughtful touches throughout which were much appreciated and we got Read morerapid help when we asked for it. The cottage has beautiful views out over the valley and is well equipped and comfortable. Highly recommended. Hide

We stayed for a week over Christmas, and what a lovely spot it is. The cottage is tastefully furnished with thought to detail. Well-appointed kitchen with everything you need. It has big windows in the living area with stunning views of the mountains and the forest, so even if the weather isn't great, you can still enjoy the landscape and not feel Read moreclosed in. The cottage was toasty warm, with the ability to set the heat for each room to your preference. Great walks from the doorstep. Hide
