WILDWOOD in the Scottish Highlands near Loch Ness and Fort Augustus Pet Friendly

Luxury Scandanavian Log House, Forest Views & Wildlife Right On Your Doorstep
Wildwood, a first class self catering accommodation for large families, groups of friends or just more space for the appreciative couple. Wildwood is set within a tranquil forest and is within easy reach of the village of Fort Augustus with it's famous Caledonian canal locks and Loch Ness. The forest tracks along the River Oich and the Great Glen make life easier to enjoy the Highlands right from your doorstep in this idyllic location. The lounge at Wildwood is located on the 1st floor taking advantage of the magnificent views through it's large picture windows, bringing the forest ever closer. A wood burner will keep you warm during those colder evenings. Also on the first floor is the master suite with dressing room and ensuite shower plus a single bedroom. A spiral staircase descends to the large open plan kitchen/dining area. Double and twin bedrooms, bathroom and large Utility/drying room are also at this level. Outside seating and barbecue for the finer days add to the experience. Totally Dog friendly.
