Property code: 82791

A rural property which is ideal for outdoor enthusiasts, with plenty of attractions including Loch Ness and Fort William within a short drive. Great holiday home for families with dogs.

Stay on the outskirts of Fort Augustus and enjoy the wonders of the Scottish Highlands with man’s best friend at your heels. Sleeping six guests and an additional three dogs, this property is ideally suited to a family eager to explore the surrounding area on foot. Each and every member of the pack will find a comfortable space to rest and unwind after a long day of hiking, with your canine companions eagerly looking out for Scotland’s fascinating wildlife right here in the back garden.

 

Step inside and find yourself in a handy utility room with washing facilities, the ideal spot to stop off and wipe muddy paws and wet fur before venturing inside. The kitchen is a generous family space where meals can be prepared, whilst the open-plan lounge/diner offers the perfect spot to unwind together. Throw a log or two on the wood burner to create an ambient spot for pups to snooze, dreaming of the day’s adventure and walkies yet to come. Alternatively, throw open the French doors when weather permits and let your dogs roam free in the garden. Boasting over half an acre set to lawn, there’s plenty of space here for four-legged friends to run off some steam.

 

Pack hiking boots and tennis balls to sniff out some adventure nearby, discovering Fort Augustus and the banks of Loch Ness just 2 miles away. Enjoy waterfront walks and the chance to spot Nessie along the loch, or perhaps board a steamboat for a trip across the water. Set tails wagging with a walk along the River Oich (2.5 miles) or take a hike along the Great Glen Way. You might also prefer to jump in the car to venture a little further, discovering the world-famous Ben Nevis 30 miles away.

Beautiful location, very peaceful and quiet. Garden was not fully enclosed as described - we were unable to close the front gate so our dog could not roam the garden without one of us always being there. Cottage was comfortable but some rooms a bit tired. Modern kitchen and bathrooms had everything we needed

Lovely bungalow in an isolated location. There are a couple of houses closely, but there is a huge dog friendly garden for this property. We would definitely stay again.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The house is more spacious than we expected it to be when looking at the photos online, but it was also really cosy. There are nice places nearby, within walking distance, that were good for the dogs. Also the garden is absolutely enormous. The neighbours sell things like eggs and jam outside their houses. The ownerRead more was very good at responding when we had questions. Hide

A great bungalow in a excellent position to explore the highlands. The bungalow content needs updating with cooker appliances not working, the kitchen floor is like walking on bubble wrap. With a little revamp and a more thorough clean this would be a great property.

A comfortable, clean, well equipped property. The cosy property is heated by a lovely log burner and supplementary heating. Fabulous location, very quiet and peaceful, the silence only interrupted by birdsong and the wind blowing through the trees. Well placed for local walks and easy access to Fort Augustus and beyond. Simply heavenly!
