An excellent house for our family to stay in for a few days. A great space with everything we needed, a good provision of games for the kids, and we loved the firestove. A nice walk into town along the beach.

Great location

Great place to stay in Loch Sport, walk to shops, walk to Lake Victoria and a short drive to 90 mile beach. For us it was a handy place to stay whilst we caught up with friends while not imposing on them. Would recommend it to others.
