A suspended moment

Without a doubt, the highlight of our father/son trip to Scotland. Being enveloped by nature, hearing the elements that surround us, watching the lake transform at every moment, and the fauna evolving around the boathouse, all this will remain engraved in our memories. Slow down and contemplate... thank you for giving us the opportunity to discover another way to experience Scotland.

Great communication from host. Beautiful boathouse in gorgeous wild isolation. Lots of fire - for warmth, cooking and heating the hot tub to marvel at the stars in a dark sky.

We wanted a few days rest after a difficult mtb-ride around glen affric

Ideal for restful days with view on a small loch with birds and animals passing. The Hot tube was nice for our muscles relaxing.

Lovely house in lovely location. Would have been very happy to stay longer ! The highlight was being in the hot tub in the rain under a perfect rainbow.

Stunning location

A real treat to stay here. Glorious location and luxurious accommodation. Use of the Landrover was an added bonus, it was really fun driving it. Fired up the hot tub a couple of times and had a little go in the boat, but not great at rowing .

Spring sunshine at the Boathouse

Wonderful few days in April. The cabin was well equipped and the off-grid facilities easy to use. Plenty firewood and enough electricity through solar/wind power to run the lights and charging devices. Completely by ourselves in isolation with wonderful scenery and some interesting wildlife. Great walks nearby too, so didn’t need to drive anywhere.

Total Relaxation

We had a lovely stay. It is totally off grid so be prepared to switch off from the world completely. I was not quite prepared for being so far away so did have to go and search for further provisions which was not an issue. The use of the 4x4 was much appreciated.

Dream Weekend Away, 2 night stay in peace and tranquility.

Myself and my partner stayed at the boathouse, it was amazing!!! Stunning panoramic views, no people, peace and tranquility. We would highly recommend to anyone. Being off grid was exactly what we needed. We loved being surrounded by nothing but nature. The Eco friendly lodge has been very well thought out, it’s modern, comfortable and has everything you need whilst remaining sympathetic to it’s natural environment. Superb! The staff have honestly thought of everything. It was spotlessly clean and a few lovely little touches such as robes, torches and even midgie nets! There is something truly magical about The Boathouse, we would highly recommend anyone to stay here.

Location, location, location

We had a wonderful stay at the Boathouse. The location is superb with lovely views over the lake, sunrises and sunsets and stillness. We felt we had our own mountain and lake. We took the boat out for a tour and there is plenty to explore by foot. The drive up in the Landeover is quite the experience. And as a bonus, Glen Affric is on your doorstep. If you want a quiet getaway and some slow living, this is the place. Hope to be back some day!

Cut off from it all

The Boathouse was the most amazing 4 days cut off from Internet...phone...people but not from Nature, fantastic views and absolute peace and quiet...throw in the winter frost, zero light pollution and clear skies, stargazing on the open deck and panorama windows it was magical.

Boathouse Hideaway

We absolutely loved our week trip to the boathouse. It was truly a luxury escape from everything. The views from the cabin were breath taking and the lack of wifi and phone signal really helped us to disconnect which was exactly what we were looking for. Everything being wood heated was something to plan our days around but there was nothing better than sitting out watching the stars from the wood fired tub. The team at Tomich Holidays were fantastic, they were super helpful not only with water and fire wood but also their knowledge of the local area and the best places to explore. We would 100% recommend the boathouse and will hopefully be back again in the future!

Magical

The Boathouse is perfectly situated on the edge of a remote loch. We watched ever changing vistas through the floor to ceiling windows; rainbows, sunrises, cloud scapes and even sunshine. We rowed on and swam in the loch, jumping into the hot tub to warm up. Walked over the estate and explored the surrounding area on foot. Plodda Falls is stunning. On a wet day, Ollie arrived with water and firewood which was so helpful. The perfect place to unwind and reset.

Outstanding, didn't want to come home!

A hidden gem. Spent a weekend of utter bliss in the wilderness here, enjoying the peace and tranquillity, wildlife, taking the boat out (even catching a fish) to relaxing in the hot tub after dark. Bed was cosy, robes were great also! Perfect place to chill out and re-set from a busy life. The location and accommodation are so well thought out. From booking to departure, everything was perfect - staff were on hand to answer any queries and assist if needed. The added provision of the Land Rover to access the accommodation was an added little touch that was needed and enjoyable. Everything you require for a weekend away was thought of in the accommodation. Would return in a minute and counting down the days until we can return again. If you're pondering whether to book - don't, just do it as you wont regret it!

The Boat house

Epic location, amazing views, peace and seclusion from a busy world. The Boat house is designed beautifully and is very comfortable. The off grid credentials are perfect for getting away and finding some real quietness. The only let down is the shower (pressure is poor and if the wood burner has been going for any length of time it will be scalding hot). Tip - run the hot water at full pressure until cold water starts to replace the hot in the holding tank to be able to shower decently, takes about 20 minutes! Either that or be prepared for a cold water dip in the loch. Also if you enjoy your fly fishing, take your own equipment as the provided is not sufficient - the wild brownies are great fun. My girlfriend and I enjoyed the stay immensely (5 nights) and look forward to returning one day. Keep an eye out for the otters on the loch edges, they are great fun to watch and may even end up underneath the boat house at times.

Wow, what a stunning holiday

If you are looking for a unique holiday destination away from the rigours and stress of modern life then I cannot recommend this place highly enough. The whole experience of being provided with a 4 by 4 to get to the boat house, lighting the wood burner to provide all our heat and cooking and being removed from wifi etc. was incredibly refreshing. The added bonus of being able to mill about on our own loch in the rowing boat and relax in the hot tub under the stars in complete and utter privacy really topped it off. Tommich was also a great location for accessing some of the most stunning parts of the highlands, including the beautiful Glen Affric and the stunning Plodda falls. However even if we hadn't been to these places the boat house with its views of the mountains and its loch would have provided us with all the scenery we needed. It is certainly a holiday we will never forget and never tire of eulogising about to friends and family and would encourage anyone to go and experience the boathouse which is not just a property but an immersive experience.

Beautifuly remote (very private) The Bothouse is tucked away below the Tweedmouth monument. Amazing!

What an amazing place to stay. Perfect, idyllic location. Situated at the foot of the Tweedmouth monument (1 hour walk) with the most amazing views across Glen Affric. With excusive use of the Boathouse Loch. If you are looking for somewhere to relax, distress, and unwind completely off the grid, this is the ideal holiday. Sitting in the Boathouse with floor to ceiling and wall to wall windows with all aspects of weather, you can enjoy uninterrupted views of the loch and surrounding countryside (panoramic). We spent a week there and saw all manner of wonderful sites from the comfort of the armchairs, from sun to rain, to wind and amazing rainbows. Watching the weather change outside and the loch transform in colour with the changeable weather, just stunning!! The only electric available is enough to charge devices. Cooking and hot water comes from the log fired arga cooker. This property takes you back to basics and essentially cuts you off from the outside world in what would be described as a luxurious way. I could go on about how amazing this is, but the best way is to experience it. The hot tub is fantastic even in the coldest of weather. Lying in the hot tub looking out over the loch is just so relaxing. The staff at Tomich are very warm and friendly Ollie the maintenance man is the perfect host! On hand should you need him, but leaves you to your holiday in peace, the perfect balance of support versus privacy. We highly recommend this property if you truly want to get off grid and unwind without the interruptions of things like the Internet. The only problem we had in the week we were there was the trauma of packing the car to have to leave on our last day, knowing we were going back to civilisation. Thank you to Ollie and everyone at Tomich holidays for an amazing holiday. we will see you again soon.
