Fantastic stay in the Highlands
Absolutely loved our stay in Andrea’s pod. From the get-go, communication was established and Andrea helped ensure we arrived at the pod quickly with clear directions. The building itself is amazing and the attention to detail is notable! Perfect for a couple. The various farm animals truly made the stay exceptional and we both wouldn’t hesitate to come back. Thanks again to Andrea for underscoring our stay in the Highlands with the perfect accommodations!

Great stay
We stayed for 3 nights and it was a perfect location for all we wanted to see. Andrea was really helpful at check in and told us everything we needed to know. The pod was very spacious and had everything we could ever want. The weather wasn't good enough to use the hot tub but it looked inviting nevertheless. We also loved seeing the animals virtually outside the door. A very enjoyable stay

Birthday Weekend
We stayed for 4 nights and the lodge exceeded our expectations. All the little touches in the lodge were amazing! The bed was so comfy and cosy and perfect for the cold nights. The hot tub was amazing being able to watch the stars at night. Andrea was amazing with recommendations for places to eat. The views are outstanding and overall we had a very cosy and peaceful week.
