We loved the peace and tranquility at Allt Beag and we enjoyed the beauty and majesty of the surrounding area. The cottage is cosy and comfortable, well-equipped and very clean. It was a real joy and helped to make our holiday in the highlands a memorable experience.

Myself my husband and our 2 border terriers stayed here for the Christmas week and th cottage and the scenery was fantastic, garden was secure for the dogs the cottage has everything you need and cooked a Christmas dinner with the all the trimmings and everything I needed was there. The scenery is beautiful and so peaceful, beautiful walks locally. The nearest supermarket is 1 1/2 away so advise to do your food shop for the week even though there is a spar which is fully stocked with every day essentials about 10 min drive away. My only negative is that we had to leave! Will definitely be coming back.
