  • "The house is lovely well equipped and located in a very nice area ."

    Accessible for exploring all of the highlands which we did each day. The information packs were very informative so we could easily find out what we needed. The property was very clean and welcoming so as soon as we got there we felt very welcome.

    Thank you so much for your lovely feedback and for leaving everything so clean and tidy (unlike last weeks guests who left their dog’s poop all over the garden amongst other things, so I had a right old dash to get everything cleaned properly for you!) So glad you enjoyed your stay and managed to get to visit lots of our beautiful Highlands. Property Owner

  • "Lovely place to stay, Interior outstanding and Carol was really helpful & accommodating."

    My only criticism is we thought we were renting a cottage only to realise that it was a flat when we arrived. Nothing against Carol she was so helpful, we were both unwell and hoping for a quiet relaxing stay only to return home on Thursday as work was being done in the flat upstairs so lots of banging and sawing!

    Thank you for your feedback and recognition of my efforts. I have now requested that the description of the property be changed as, although it did not specify that it was an apartment, it did state that it was all on the ground floor and the main picture showed a 2 storey building. As I said in our telephone conversation, I can only apologise for the noise from upstairs, when I spoke with the owner previously he had assured me that noisy jobs would be completed on Saturdays during changeover hours (he works Mon to Fri, as do the tradesman he has working with him doing renovations). On this occasion, he was extremely apologetic as he said the building site they had been working on had been closed for the day due to the extremely low temperature do they decided to work on the renovations. The tradesmen had just not thought, and the owner had not warned them as he had originally planned only for weekend works. I was sorry to discover that you had gone home early and had not fully enjoyed your stay, but understood that as you were ill, you just wanted to be home and I hoped that you had a swift recovery.

    Everything you need. So clean, cosy, warm & so peaceful! We stayed early October with our dog Paddy & the weather wasn’t too bad. The reservoir walk at the rear of the property was lovely as is the Falls of Foyers walk. We really enjoyed the Dores Beach walk too. We visited Inverness, Fort Augustus & Drumnadrochit. We would definitely stay here again. Tip, bring some bird food as so many birds in the garden, lovely!

    Thank you for your lovely feedback, and comments. I’m so glad you had a nice time and of course you would be very welcome to stay again when hopefully I would get the chance to welcome you in person. Carol Property Owner

  • "It was very well maintained and clean."

    Loved the remote control blinds in the kitchen. The heating system was different, but adequate to our needs. Not sure it would be enough for a really cold day, but I noticed there were radiators in the property and I assume they would be functional when required. The shower was good and the bed was very comfortable. The seating in the lounge let it down as the sofa in particular and the chair were not that comfortable. I sat on the sofa for the first evening and my back was very sore. So I sat in the harder chair. Maybe ok for younger people, but when in your sixties, it’s not good enough. Next door had a party on Friday evening and were loud, which is fair enough, it’s Friday. But we knew we wouldn’t sleep enough before leaving on Saturday, so we left at 9.45pm. We will not consider having a holiday in an apartment again because of this experience as you are paying for a relaxing holiday.

    I’m sorry that for you the sofa was uncomfortable and that there was noise, there has never previously been any noise from next door, so this was unfortunate. Update: I asked the neighbours, there was no party! Regarding heating, & wood burner, everything is fully explained in the welcome pack that I sent prior to arrival (and in the property). Other guests have described it as very cosy. As the listing is written by Sykes, I would appreciate detail of what you found to be inaccurate. Thank you Property Owner

Lots of lovely walks, friendly locals & knowing what the Scottish weather can be like, we were very lucky & had super weather with only one day of light showers which never really lasted long & certainly didn't keep us in.

  • "Hardly any hot water , for a bath and the shower was a trickle."

    To top it off, they charged me a extra £75 ( For cleaning , I can only guess ) Total rip off

    To address your feedback, the £75 was charged from your bond in order to get the property back to a respectable state after your stay as a lot of extra cleaning was required. Your booking was made the day before your stay but you arrived at least 6 hours early in a huge double glazing van which, when parked in the driveway, stuck out so much it almost blocked the road. The property was found stinking of chemicals by our houskeeper, so much so that he felt ill after spending 9 hours in there cleaning. He had to deal with silicone stuff (assumed to be from the double glazing business) stuck all over the bath, a soaking wet duvet covered in chemicals, and piles of dog faeces left all over the garden, as well as dirty burnt pots thrown back into the drawer. He had to disinfect the false grass area after removing the dog mess, wash door mats smelling of dog pee and gently scrape all the silicone from the bath amongst other things. He also found scratches on the top of my oak furniture in the bedroom. So all in all, with the replacement duvet cover, the additional cleaning time and products and the £95 plus VAT to repair the scratch, even with the additional cleaning fee, it has cost me to have had these guests stay in my little property which I take great efforts to make as perfect as possible for my guests. Thankfully, most guests are very respectful and appreciate the work which goes into making this a clean and welcoming place for a relaxing holiday. Property Owner

As well as short drives to Inverness, Fort Augustus or an hours drive to Fort William if you fancy taking on Ben Nevis. Would definitely stay here again ☺

    It’s a stones throw from the falls of foyers which is well worth a visit. The home was easy to find and easy access through the key safe. Lovely garden for the dog to the rear and space for parking. Unfortunately we couldn’t work out the heating system so our first night there was a very very cold one. I did try an ring the ownerl but couldn’t get through. We worked out that the pictures on the walls are actually heaters strangely. It would be good if this was explained in the welcome email just to avoid teething problems. Also be prepared for a cold shower. The shower system alternates from cold to boiling hot water in tandem. We tried having a bath instead but the same from the taps. Despite the above issues with the facilities we did have a lovely time.

    Thank you for the kind words about the property and whilst I am very sorry that you had this bad experience at my property, I can confirm that the document containing all information and operating institutions for both the primary and secondary heating systems within the property was attached to the welcome email. I have also confirmed with my housekeeper that the property was heated on the afternoon of your arrival, the wood burner was set ready to light and there were sufficient logs for the period of your rental, most of which had been used by the time of your departure. The stove has a back burner which heats the radiators and water in addition to the immersion water heater and the IR heating panel picture heaters. Other guest reviews have only ever stated that the cottage was lovely and warm and cosy and I have received no other feedback or private messages regarding lack of warmth or hot water but I will have everything fully checked over prior to my next guests arrival. I do see that I had one missed call (but no emails or messages via Sykes) on the date of your arrival and I can only apologise for missing this call and can only assume this was because it was late evening and I would have been asleep (I was an hour ahead as on holiday myself on that date).

There is a lovely coffee shop called Cameron’s a few minutes walk away which is worth a visit. The local hotel is only a five minute walk away with stunning views of Loch Ness from the bar. The food served looked lovely, however, due to staff shortages in the kitchen they were only taking bookings for hotel guests last week. Everywhere is dog friendly. There are stunning walks not far away from the cottage for all abilities of walkers. Would thoroughly recommend staying in the cottage and have already booked to go back next year.

About the location

FOYERS

Fort Augustus 13 miles; Inverness 20miles.

Foyers is a pretty highland village situated on the quiet eastern banks of Loch Ness and is accessed via a scenic single track road from Inverness that runs along the side of this famous Loch passing through various small villages until you enter Foyers. The village itself boasts a village shop and Post Office along with a friendly cafe, two hotels with bars and restaurants and an award-winning cafe with shop. Foyers is perhaps most famous for its spectacular 140ft waterfall known as the Falls of Foyers where the River Foyers drops into a gorge leading into Loch Ness. In Victorian times the Falls were very popular and visitors arrived to see them by paddle steamer from Inverness. The road from Inverness into Foyers can be continued through the village and along this quieter side of the world famous Loch and eventually you will arrive in the bustling village of Fort Augustus which has an excellent butcher, nice shops, restaurants and the famous flight of lock gates, often busy with boats. The area is ideal for walkers, cyclist and wildlife spotters and of course the scenery is second to none.
