We have a lovely week at An Carraig. Such a beautiful house, very comfortable and in a perfect spot. Extremely well equipped - other than a larger pan and casserole dish would be useful, especially if cooking for 8 people.. We had mixed weather - some sunshine, some rain (beautful rainbows over the loch!), bit windy most of the time, but it didn't Read morespoil our holiday. We were happy just sitting out when we could and enjoying the birds and the porpoises (or at least their fins!). Visit to Benmore Botanical Gardens was definitely worth it. We ate twice at the Ardentinny restaurant 2 doors away - the owners were very friendly and the food was generally good. Overall a lovely stay. Would definitely return. Hide

We had a beautiful stay at this house. The living room, which is upstairs, had panoramic views of the loch, and we were given the privilege of watching dolphins/porpoises from the comfort of a couch on more than one occasion. There was a regular visit from the seals as well. The house is beautiful, the village is beautiful and to top it all there wRead moreas a friendly pub almost next door. Fabulous holiday. Thank you.

Fantastic location and a great house for a larger group. The social space is excellent and the en-suite bathrooms wonderful. There is a fantastic kitchen and dining space but if you dont want to cook there is a restaurant next door which is open Wednesday to Sunday. We will be back

Beautiful house with wonderful views from the garden and upstairs living room. Reasonably well equipped, particularly for a smaller group. A group of 8 may need a bigger cooking pot etc.

We had a pleasant stay in this comfortable house which is in a great location. The scenery was spectacular and the weather fine. The more active members of our family group went walking while others relaxed and enjoyed the views of the loch. The property owners were very helpful and informative. We enjoyed meals at the Ardentinny restaurant and theRead more Blairmore cafe. A very enjoyable holiday. Hide
