Other things to note
Pets are permitted to the house this will be mostly dogs and we do ask that they are kept in the downstairs areas of the house as much as possible, a stair gate is also available to help out and we do have a large dog bed, feeding bowls and cage available. We do ask that pets are not left alone especially if prone to barking and if possible all treatments etc are up to date.
We are pet owners ourselves and fully understand the problems so please ask firstly if not sure about anything.
There is an enclosed area at rear of house that is ideal for pets, the area beyond this is a private garden. But the front of the house does get the sun and is great for sitting taking in the views and with the children's park opposite its great for families.

| Lauren | 10 years on Airbnb | https://a0.muscache.com/im/pictures/user/81515be7-100a-49ec-b46b-6107bf0b59f3.jpg?im_w=240 | 5 | January 2025 | Jason’s house is warm and cosy with everything you could need. It is always refreshing when a host adds extra touches and makes it feel like a home from home. That part of Scotland is beautiful and we enjoyed beautiful walks near the loch. Highly recommended! | |||
| Moira | 6 years on Airbnb | https://a0.muscache.com/im/pictures/user/6aab49d6-3afc-4128-b64c-a222c704a093.jpg?im_w=240 | 5 | October 2024 | Had a fantastic break, great place for a short family break. Comfortable, clean and well equipped. Stunning surroundings and a friendly host. Thoroughly recommend. | |||
| Brandon | 6 years on Airbnb | https://a0.muscache.com/im/pictures/user/8df4b7dd-6384-4197-9f29-0a7f3cca5e9e.jpg?im_w=240 | 5 | October 2024 | Fantastic location to explore the Loch Ness area. Tons of activities and sights around the area. Great if looking for a peaceful place! | |||
| Agnieszka | 5 years on Airbnb | https://a0.muscache.com/im/pictures/user/c753ffb8-8741-45e7-be18-74ff1c81a7fd.jpg?im_w=240 | 5 | September 2024 | We really enjoyed staying at Jason’s place. It’s based in a quiet village cul-de-sac and had very helpful information on how to get there from the host. The place feels like home with all the home comforts and amenities to use. Was clean and quiet, couldn’t ask for more. Sweets in a bowl were a nice touch. Fireplace was also a bonus. I only wish we had more time to explore the immediate surroundings as the whole area is beautiful but we focused on Glen Affric walks nearby. | |||
| Chris | 5 years on Airbnb | None | 5 | August 2024 | Lovely place near Drumnadrochit - perfect for those walkers looking to get access to some of the more remote areas west of Lochness. Property was perfect for a group of mates having evening meals and a few board games. Jason was great and made the whole thing very easy! | |||
| Pablo | Montevideo, Uruguay | None | 5 | July 2024 | Very good place to stay with kids. It has a playground with games, very good. Ideal for family clearance. | |||
| Calum | 6 years on Airbnb | None | 5 | June 2024 | Great stay | |||
| Sharissa | 7 years on Airbnb | None | 4 | November 2023 | A cozy and nice cottage to stay in. The cottage was a bit cold upon arrival, but Jason immediately helped us create a cozy fireplace. | |||
| Cathy | 3 years on Airbnb | None | 5 | October 2023 | Great Host and amazing place - Jason was an outstanding host, always helped out if we needed it. | |||
| Jennifer | 10 years on Airbnb | None | 5 | August 2023 | Jason is a fantastic host and we just felt right at home. The house has everything we need and Jason always made sure that we are comfortable. There are lots of things to do nearby especially hiking, swimming and paddle boarding. The community is so wonderful and warm, and we had the most amazing Scottish welcome. We will definitely come back. |
