Well presented caravan that was exactly as described. Please note as this is a pet friendly place there was a lot of dog hair that transferred from the couch onto our clothes but appreciate this is hard to remove from furniture. The caravan was otherwise very clean. Location is within a walking distance of Clava Cairns and only a 20min drive from Invernes. Neil who manages the caravan was also very responsive to our queries. I would easily recommend a stay at this caravan if you are looking for somewhere private and quiet but still close enough to drive to tourist areas around Culloden, Invernes and Loch Nes.
