A beautiful lodge on the banks of the loch, a stunning location and the aspect is sublime with the sunset over the hills. Many brown trout were fished on the loch and there are many walks with much nature on the doorstep. We thoroughly enjoyed our time and will certainly visit again. Many thanks indeed for a fantastic break.
