Convenient location and bigger than looks.
The house is much bigger than it appears on line and it is well equipped. It was very clean and the beds and sofa extremely comfortable. Although we knew that the house was next to a pub, the pub has changed hands and now has covered outdoor seated area at each side of their main entrance. The pub is doing very well and was constantly busy. We ate at the pub one night and the food was excellent. We also had pizzas from Pizza Jo (across the bridge) which was a nice experience. The location is fabulous for access to Skye, Plockton and wonderful local walks etc but sadly there is a single storey bed and breakfast directly opposite the house obstructing the views. To enjoy the views you need to be outside the property. There is a table and chairs we used at the side of the house. We were able to park outside the house every day and stored our kayaks in the rear passageway. Thank you for accommodating us and for the kind bottle of fizz which was much appreciated.

Wedding stay
Ideally located cottage for our family wedding. Spacious and clean including a well-stocked kitchen with all the glasses, dishes and cooking equipment we needed. Easy access to the Loch for watersports and parking at the door. Excellent food at both the Clachan Pub and Waterside restaurant at the Dornie Hotel, both next door to the cottage.

Great location
My daughter and I loved this property. We stayed 3 nights. The location was great - close to Isle of Skye, near the Eileen Donan castle, right next door to the pub selling great food ( but quiet) and lovely walking. The property was clean, and had everything we needed. I would definitely stay here again.
