"This characterful lodge located in the very heart of the Highlands could be your adventurous retreat from which to discover all the mystery and beauty of this fantastic area. Step straight out into the wilds around Loch Ness for some once-in-a-lifetime walks with your dogs.

The lodge is a sweet wooden home, with an enclosed garden set out overlooking the stunning surrounding landscape of Cannich and the hills beyond. Inside is the heart of the cabin, a spacious open-plan area. There’s a lovely kitchen with everything you need to rustle up holiday treats, and a washing machine so you can pack light, plus a dining table perfect for four, and a cosy living area that will make you feel at home even as the wilderness beckons outside. On the same level are your two delightful bedrooms: a king-size room for some cosy indulgence in the countryside and a bunk bedroom, ideal for kids, plus a comfortable shower room so you can feel fresh even after a day in the hills.

Head into the landscape to walk, climb, cycle, ride, and make your own way through the Highlands to discover its extraordinary atmosphere. The village of Cannich, nestled between the Rivers Glass and Cannich, hosts a collection of sweet Scottish sights, including your local village stores. You can even fish for trout or salmon. And you’ll want to head to Loch Ness; a scenic walk around this mysterious lake with your dogs is just 15 miles away.

Very clean and good location for exploring local area. Garden area was lovely. Downsides for us were washing machine was not a washer/dryer as stated on listing which was inconvenient as had to travel some distance to find laundrette , a bit tight for space in bedroom and chairs in the living area were uncomfortable. As mentioned in other reviews wRead moree have never had to pay extra for electric at a holiday let before. Hide

We were very comfortable there and enjoyed our two weeks stay. The only improvement I can think of is maybe hot water for the sinks, but we managed by heating it and it was fine.

Very clean cottage, perfect for short break, tv very small & needs to be on the wall for better viewing. Shower was like warm with no power & considering how much we paid paying for electricity on top is poor.

Location is perfect and if you have pets you have a good enclosed garden, local shop and a quirky bus bar on your doorstep, large living room but double bedroom is a bit on the small side and shower pressure on hot not great, biggest issue was being asked to pay for the electric.

A wonderfully rustic feel with all you need for a great getaway from it all - plus WiFi!! The best part was the ability to bring our dogs so we can truly relax without worry. Our dogs also had a great time with all the new smells and a fully enclosed garden to play in. I couldn't recommend this highly enough for other couples with for children thatRead more are looking for a quiet simple holiday to just decompress... did I mention that they also had WiFi? Hide
