Wonderful and relaxing location

We had a great vacation in the cottage. The location is unbelievable--looking out on a quiet loch, yet only minutes from the best castle in the region. The cottage had everything in the kitchen we could need, and the beds were comfortable and cozy. Ian, the host was very helpful in communicating, though we had no problems that needed attention.

Toller Aufenthalt

Das Haus liegt super ruhig und sehr idyllisch. Der Blick aus jedem Zimmer auf das Loch Long ist traumhaft. Wir haben uns gleich wohl gefühlt. Auch als Ausgangslage für unsere Ausflüge u.a. auf die Isle of Skye, nach Plockton und verschiedene Wanderungen ist das Haus rundum zu empfehlen.

Fantastic cottage in a beautiful location

Ian the host is extremely helpful and communicative. The cottage is perfectly located for the mainland and Skye, and is warm, cosy and well equipped. You could spend a couple of weeks just watching the light change on the loch outside the window.

Brilliant cottage, highly recommend

This property was spotless on arrival. Very spacious and the layout was excellent, entrance area to take off shoes, with a downstairs toilet. This then went into a laundry room then a simply fantastic drying room that did exactly as it said (and very efficiently). The kitchen was large, well equipped. The bedrooms were spacious and the living room was comfortable. It is situated in a quiet, very pretty spot 15 mins walk from Eilean Donan castle. Loads of things to do,we explored Skye quite a bit. I would recommend the boat trip from Elgol to Loch Coruisk with Misty Isle boats. We went on the 3 hour trip and it wasnt long enough as the Loch was so beautiful and lots of climbing and walking available. The kids wore waterproof sandals and made the most of them in the crystal clear water! We were blessed with excellent weather too, but even the odd day we stayed in with the plentiful books and games there. Oh, another really good thing. All the "necessities" like toilet roll, kitchen roll, kitchen spray, handwash, bin bags, dishwasher tablets were all provided which was excellent. We loved our stay, it was a home from home and there is nothing bad to say at all. We didnt even really get "midged" which we came prepared for. Thank you Ian for allowing us to share your beautiful home.

Great floorplan - very clean and thought of everything!

Great property for 3 adults and 3 kids. Plenty of space for everyone, huge kitchen and washer & SEPARATE dryer that actually works (not a combo unit that leaves your clothes wet). Very close to the castle and easy drive to Skye. Loved our stay. Thanks!

My dream holiday in the highlands of Scotland

Ian’s home was absolutely beautiful with an even better view of the loch. The neighborhood and small village of Dornie were quaint & peaceful with friendly folk. It was an easy drive to The Isle of Skye and nearby towns. If you did not want to travel around, you could be content just strolling the lovely lane along the loch or listen to the sheep calling to their babies or simply enjoying the amazing views outside any of the windows of Ian’s home. I highly recommend this property!!!!

This is a huge house that overlooks a loch. Everything you need for cooking. Comfortable beds and separate washer and dryer. Excellent communication. Couldn't ask for more. Try The Clachan a little pub about a half mile away that has fantastic meals. You will need reservation.

Simply the best!

We were delighted with our choice of Bundalloch for our week long stay with a group of 4 adults. Couldn’t have asked for more. The location is superb with views that are stunning even in the rain…and there was a lot of that! Great base for exploring a very beautiful part of Scotland. The spacious property is immaculate and very well appointed. We were very impressed by the comfort and cleanliness. Very much appreciated having 3 toilets 2 showers and a bath! Great selection of games and books and very good wifi…. a bonus on the rainy days! For us it was the perfect location for an overdue reunion with our daughter visiting from Australia and a 90 year old close family friend. Plenty space to chill out and relax but close to some lovely sights. Ian is to be commended as a host! Highly recommend his beautiful property!
