Lovely cottage. Well maintained and had everything we needed for a great stay. Beautiful setting with views of the loch and walks from the door. Hazel couldn't have been more helpful and truly went the extra mile to make our holiday still a success even after the power and water was wiped out by a storm.

Clarinnes cottage is a beautiful home from home. Well equipped with everything we needed for our long weekend away with our 3 grandkids. The welcome pack was a lovely touch.The grandkids loved the hot tub and the secure garden.Very comfortable beds that Hazel the hosts arranged in the configurment that we required prior to our visit.Great communication and will definitely return to a stunning part of Scotland.The one hour round trip to the Blue Lagoon fish and chip shop in Alexandria is also worth the journey 👍
