"Our second visit to this beautiful, cosy holiday home and it was just as wonderful as we remembered the first time."
We even brought a close family friend with us, who also fell in love with the place and said it was exactly as we had described it to her. I would highly recommend this holiday property - it really was the perfect place to come home to every night, and we will definitely come back for a third visit if we return to Drumnadrochit.
Dear Sheila,
Thank you for that lovely review. We were delighted to see your name come up as a returning guest. We are also glad that your friend enjoyed their stay.
It is a beautiful area to visit and we love it too. Now in our third year and we are still discovering new and interesting things to see and do in the surrounding area.
We sincerely hope to see you again in the future for a thrid time.

"We loved our stay at Carn Glas!"
Great communication with the owners, and the property was warm and clean when we arrived (thank you to the cleaner!). The welcome basket was very much appreciated too. The decor was lovely (the house gave us some design ideas ready for when we renovate our own house!), and we had everything we needed for our holiday. Friendly neighbours too. A great property and we'll be recommending it to our family and friends. We'd love to return one day. Thank you!
Dear Paula,
Thank you so much for that lovely review. It has really made our day. We're really glad that you liked the house and found it comfortable.
You're absolutely right about the neighbours too. In fact all the neighbours on the street are super friendly and we regard this as a true blessing as it is very unusual. Thats why we love spending time there too.
We are glad you had an enjoyable stay and really hope to see you again next year.

"An absolute gem."
35 Carn Glas is in a great location for seeing Loch Ness and a good jump off point for the rest of the highlands. The house is well designed, well built and well apportioned. I highly recommend the place!
Dear Peter,
Thank you so much for your kind review. We are very glad to hear your comments about the house and are happy that it met your expectations. As you say, Drumnadrochit is an excellent location for exploring the Highlands and we absolutely love the location ourselves. We hope to see you again at some time in the future.

Spotlessly clean with everything we needed for our stay. Brilliant location as a base for day trips out around the Highlands, with a central position in the town, but in a quiet street for those times you are regrouping and hanging out at the house. We would definitely come back!
Dear Pamela. Thank you so much for your lovely words. The Highlands are really magnificent and we are so happy that you chose our Highland Holiday House for your base. We look forward to welcoming you back at some point in the future. Property Owner

"Location was fantastic and the house was lovely."
A wonderful experience.
Only difficultly recycle directions - we couldn't find where we were supposed to put our glass. So sorry!
Hi Lindsay,
Thank you for your lovely review. We are glad that you liked the house. You dont need to apologise about the glass so dont worry. There is an A5 poster in a picture frame in the kitchen, that explains what to do with the glass. You must have missed it thinking it was an ornamental picture. We didnt want to spoil the look of the house by covering it in safety warnings and instructions so we put some of them in picture frames so they look nicer. I am sorry if this confused you.
As I said, dont worry about the glass - it is no big deal.

"The house more then met our needs, we can not find any faults, with two bathrooms and three toilets, if you want to cook they is a modern kitchen but with good restaurants and takeaways within a short walk there was no need to."
With a washing machine and tumble dryer you can reduce what you pack. There are plenty of places to visit within a short drive.
I will certainly come back and will recommend this property to anyone who wants to visit this part of Scotland.

"Great holiday home, very comfortable and really nicely furnished."
The bike shed was really useful. The location is ideal for exploring Loch Ness and its surroundings but also for proximity to the Coop supermarket and takeaways so there are easy food options nearby. As well as the obvious stuff at Loch Ness, we would second recommendations for walking/cycling at Glen Affric and the spectacular Plodda Falls. Aviemore is a drive but great for other activities (the zip trek is fantastic).

"When you book somewhere that has no reviews at all, there is a bit of nervousness around what you’re going to find when you arrive."
As it turned out we didn’t need to worry as when we arrived at Carn Glas we immediately knew it was lovely and spotless. It wasn’t until we got inside and read the welcome letter we found out we were the first ever guests to stay in the house, and Michelle the owner had left a lovely selection of biscuits and wine for us.
The house itself was amazing, everything was brand new! We loved the downstairs open plan kitchen, dining room and living room downstairs with lovely views over the hills beyond. The bedrooms and bathrooms were quiet and comfortable and Michelle had amazing Highland Soap company products in every bathroom.
The location was brilliant for us with a young family. There were two play parks within five minutes walk from the house and a great walk through Urquhart Bay Woods down to the edge of Loch Ness. Also within 1 minute walking distance was a well stocked Scotmid and a fish and chip shop. It was also well situated for Nessie spotting and 2 minutes from Urquhart castle.
I have no idea why Sykes only give this 4 ticks in their rating, it’s one of the best places we’ve ever stayed. If you’re after somewhere quiet, luxurious and well located for exploring Loch Ness you can’t go wrong with Carn Glas.
Dear Alastair,
