I wish we stayed longer!
My husband and I spent 2 weeks in the UK and stayed in 7 different accommodations during that time. This was, by far, the best by a mile. Not only is it situated on a lovely stretch of farmland with a view of Loch Ness in the distance, the rental themselves were comfortable, well-equipped, and clean. Each individual unit has its own little enclosure with a hot tub that was perfect after a long day of walking.
The rental was beautiful and homey. The attention to detail was incredible, every piece of this rental was well thought out. The bathrooms were clean and well organized. The wi-if worked quite well. The rental also had a dishwasher, oven, and microwave for use. This was great for us as we wanted to be in the comfort of the rental as opposed to out at a restaurant, so we were able to pick up food at a nearby Tesco superstore (~8m away) and stay in.
As an added bonus, they gave us a couple bags of feed to hand feed the alpacas, which was a really nice way to say goodbye to our time there.
One thing I would note is that if you don’t have your own car, getting here might be a bit of a hassle. It is situated along a moderate stretch of single lane road and could probably be reached by Uber or similar services but it might not be the most convenient way.
