For a week of long walks with the dog, hearty pub lunches and a silent night's sleep, look no further than this property in the Scottish Highlands. This happy home comfortably sleeps seven and welcomes two dogs, so you won't have to leave your prized pets behind on this escape to the country. You won't find a TV, Wi-Fi connection or mobile signal at this rural retreat, ensuring a true escape to nature for the family and 24/7 cuddles for your four-legged friends.

In keeping with the countryside location of the home, the decor is traditional throughout. The kitchen and dining room make a sociable space to unwind and plan the day ahead, with comfy sofas crowded round the original oil-fired Esse wood burner, a warm spot for man's best friend to sleep. After dinner, enjoy evening drinks in the cosy lounge. Find a retro board game and enjoy some family time in front of the roaring open fire or spend some time alone, poring over a good book with a happy dog curled up at your feet. Outside the home you'll find a spacious garden, enclosed and set to lawn, ideal for letting Rover and Fido let off some steam at the end of a long day.

Accessible up half a mile of farm track, seclusion is certainly a selling point of this wonderful property. Enjoy a rewarding 5-mile walk to the nearest village, where the local pub serves food and welcomes your canine companions. Collar up and head out on a Munro bagging expedition, with local mountains Carn Eige (19 miles) and Mam Sodhail (22 miles) boasting challenging walks and an abundance of sticks to be fetched. A less strenuous day can be enjoyed on the nearby Loch Ness (19 miles), where regular dog-friendly cruises sail the tranquil waters.

Fantastic location. Couldn't ask for anything better . There were duvets provided on every bed and radiators in every room. Some reviews say that there weren't. It was a shame that the aga no longer works. Magical place.

Absolutely amazing views and very peaceful. Would definitely return in the future. The pub nearby was really friendly and inviting, food was simply but excellent. Be aware that there was an problem with the drinking water however the owners provide plentiful amounts of bottle water so it wasn't really an issue

it is a magic place in a simple house warm, homely and confortable. The silence and absence of wifi is a luxury . The owner is a very nice man , always ready to be help. We stayed just one week and it was very too short because we have had very happy in this place. I hope we could come back, but glenn Cannish is far from France and we are olds.
