May break
Propery whilst in a lovely location was a bit dated
Also we received a call 30 minutes before arrival to state that they had changed the lodge that we were in
Even though the lodges were the same the one we were changed to got very little sun

So quiet and beautiful
If you like quiet beautiful places, this is it. The owners are fantastic and so helpful. Fully self catering, so the option to go out or stay in. The 5mile road in to the woods is a great drive, yet so close to the co-op supermarket and everything you could need. Only minutes away from Loch Ness and Urqhart Castle is just down the road. Great little cabins. Highly recommend.
