Although it has been a while since we stayed here, the location of this farmstyle B & B has stayed with me. The B & B is down a long drive way leading to a finger of land that protrudes out into the southern end of Loch Ness. The views are magical with picnic tables that encourage you to kick... More

My wife and I stayed a couple of nights, and although overall the experience was ok, the behaviour of the owner Jenny was somewhat odd. Se could be charming and a great source of information, but then at other times was off hand and rude. As an example, after breakfast one morning we placed our cup and saucer on tiop... More
