We had a lovely time celebrating my 60th with our children and grandchildren, the only down side was the amount of flies that flew in when we opened the windows ( maybe let ppl know that when staying at this time of year about the cluster of flies as we had to spray the room and use hoover there was so many ) and the only other small down side was that when we made dinner on the Sunday ( as we just wanted to chill for last day ) the weren’t enough big pots but as i say that was all maybe leave extra towels , we were lucky the weather was amazing and were able to use the machine and get them out but we had a lovely family time there 😊
This was an amazing house near the shores of Loch Ness. Even though there were 9 of us, there was plenty of room for all and we definitely enjoyed ourselves there. Be aware that Vrbo listed the house as having a washer and dryer but no dryer was present. It only had a washer with drying racks.
We had a lovely week staying at this property which was spacious and very clean. It was very well equipped in the kitchen with plenty of crockery and cutlery. Also had a very swish hot/cold tap. Nice patio area with a couple of Bbqs. Lots of instructions left to help and there recommendations for places to visit, which was useful. Would be very happy to holiday here again.
The house is beautiful and clean! We were welcomed to home made bread and fresh flowers in the kitchen. The property is peaceful and sits right above the Loch Ness. Only minutes away from
Dores with a small conveniance store and a number of magical hiking/walking trails. Everything we could have asked for and more.
the Loch Ness
This house is the perfect house for a group that wants to eat together, using the big dining table, and at the same time appreciates the possibility to do something on one's own, in one of the different rooms or corners of the house.
The house is very well equipped, we enjoyed the tastefulness of almost everything, chosen with love and care, and a practical mind.
We fully recommend this house, one cannot be disappointed by it. Be aware beforehand that Loch Ness can hardly been seen from the house, one needs to climb a bit to see the beauty of it.
The home was exactly as advertised. Clean, modern, well-stocked, and a great tranquil location not far from Inverness. Perfect for our group of friends. Lorna the housekeeper was the primary contact, and was responsive and very helpful when our arrival was delayed due to airline issues. Would definitely stay again!
Our experience at the Sealladh An Loch house was outstanding. The location was excellent with views of Loch Ness, lovely scenery. We enjoyed sitting outside with listening to the birds in the evening. Our large group of 11 had plenty of space including 4 bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms. The house has lots of sitting areas inside and out both upstairs and downstairs. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals and included a charcoal grill on the patio. We enjoyed playing games on the snooker table also. The house was spotlessly clean. The host and housekeeper were responsive to our questions. We also appreciated the recommendations and pamphlets the host provided for suggestions to see in the area. Overall a wonderful experience and would definitely recommend staying here.
The house is amazing! Worked extremely well for our group of 3 family’s made up of 6 adults and 6 kids (various ages)
Loads of room and lots of sociable areas to be all together or in little groups, in different parts of the house.
We had a brilliance week, great weather and plenty of exploring.
Little issues were that the hot water ran out quickly and every night a few people ended up having cold showers. Not being able to control the heating was a bit of a problem as it was very warm and we had to open all the windows to let the heat out (which seemed wrong). Surely getting guests to down load the hive app and issuing access to the heating would work better?
We would definitely look to rebook.
Thank you to Lorna for the homemade cake for our arrival!
Really enjoyed our recent stay. Bright, spacious property that has obviously had lots of thought and effort put into design and upkeep. Great location to explore local surrounds from. Excellent house for extended family - plenty of room for everybody and good amenities. Lego, garden and snooker table were all great entertainment. Very easy to communicate with house keeper.
A lovely, bright, clean, spacious house. Lots of indoor space with a fully equipped social kitchen. The snooker table was a big hit.
The house could really benefit from having a tumble dryer and from being able to control the temperature of the heating ourselves.
We really enjoyed our time here.
Excellent property for short multi generational stay
Beautiful house in very attractive location with plenty space and sitting areas for people to spread out if wanted. Very well stocked kitchen very able to cater for large groups.
The full size snooker table was a huge hit especially as we were not blessed with brilliant weather. Lots of information about activities and places to visit nearby. The challenge of the lighting was easier in practice than it appeared in the welcome pack. Only negative was the inability to alter the heating in any of the rooms as we had three generations who have different needs.
Awesome location if you want scenery and a location for some good walks from the door. Great house especially for family get togethers. Inverness only 30mins away if needed.
Wonderful property in an excellent secluded location yet handy for all the local sites. Special mention to Lorna who was fantastic after we experienced car trouble on the last day and bore with us whilst we got everything sorted out.
Only thing missing is a tumble dryer.
Group of 10 ~30ish people stayed for a week.
Loved the location and the property is almost perfect. Everything we needed was provided.
Some little issues though; there doesn’t seem to be much insulation between floors so people sleeping in bedrooms above the communal areas can almost hear people having normal conversations or doing things in the kitchen.
The very hard pillows were a common complaint across the whole group (although we didn’t ask if there were any softer ones). Having one hard one soft provided “as standard” would be a definite improvement.
The internet is effectively only fast enough to do basic things. Given the remoteness of the location it’s not unsurprising. This wasn’t a particular problem for our group as we only needed to google things to do/book things but may be a problem for those with kids who are glued to their phone. This problem is compounded by the fact there is no live TV available and you can’t stream (especially if multiple devices are in use).
Summary is that this house is an excellent property for those who want a truly secluded getaway!

Selten so einen schönen Urlaub erlebt
Völlig unkomplizierte Anreise, liebe und freundliche Menschen in jedem Kontakt.
An dieser Stelle noch einmal vielen, lieben Dank an unsere Vermieterin Susan und natürlich auch an Lorna (housekeeping). Meine ganze Familie, alle Kinder und Enkel sowie insbesondere Mrs. Krause nach deren 60. Geburtstag wir diese Reise unternommen hatten, waren absolut begeistert von Schottland. Es war uns eine Freude und Ehre in diesem wundervollen Haus eine schöne Zeit zu haben.
Danke

Peaceful and convenient
This is a great house for families and large groups. We had nine, including two small children, and there were comfortable places to gather, as well as get away. The kitchen is fully equipped, and nicely laid out.
Everything here is luxurious, and feels new. It is in a good location between St Augustus and Inverness. There are walking trails nearby, and a cemetery across the street.
If you are seeking Nessie, there is not a better spot to base your search.

Lovely holiday spot!
Loved it! Nice, wide open spaces, tranquil location, definitely what we were looking for in a holiday. A little intimidating to find the first time, but worth it. Susan was lovely to deal with and we would definitely come back! A lot of wildlife to be seen. Somewhat inconsistent wi-fi was ultimately the only issue. Common in the highlands we assume based on our travels 😉

Great stay in a very lovely house
The house is just perfect. We were 12 including 5 children and everybody had space and private bathroom for each room which was well appreciated.
The kitchen is very well organised and the snooker is definitely a +.
Our stay was fantastic we could just regret it was only for a week.

Perfect for a Loch Ness family getaway!
The house was clean and spacious with wonderful views of the loch from two of the bedrooms upstairs. There were many amenities, including a large flatscreen TV, movies, and books as well as a coffee maker, dishwasher, washer/dryer unit, and a fully stocked kitchen.
My family of 5 enjoyed being able to spread out and enjoy walks to the Loch and easy trips to the nearby attractions.
We would definitely book this property again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet, scenic vacation on the famous Loch Ness!

Una buena casa al lado del Lago Ness
-Se encuentra la casa ubicada entre Inverness y Fort Augustus al lado del lago Ness (Loch Ness).
-La casa es muy grande con 6 habitaciones y otros tantos cuartos de baño, como dice la propiedad en Internet.
-la casa estaba muy limpia y que buenas instalaciones, hasta un billar de un tamaño muy grande.
-La propiedad ha estado en contacto con email y su trato ha sido siempre correcto,
-Si que es una casa recomendable para mis amistades, con el único problema que las carreteras en Escocia son muy malas.
-Lugares de interés son el mismo lago Ness, Inverness y Fort Augustus, donde se pueden encontrar restaurantes, sin embargo la casa tiene una cocina muy grande y muy bien instalada, por lo que comprando en un supermercado se pueden preparar según el plan del día desayunos, comidas o cenas.
Hay que tener en cuenta que la casa es hasta para 12 personas, nosotros éramos 8.
