We had a very relaxed break at Balnacraig last weekend. The abundance of routes available for walking walk in the woods behind the house gave us a wide selection of grades ranging from steep mountain bike tracks to more gentle forest roads. The autumn colours made the walks enchanting and drives along the north side of Loch Ness a wonderful visual experience. Balnacraig was spotlessly clean and really comfortable, we had all we required for a home from home experience and it is so well located for ventures north, east and west.

Our only issue was being unable to access terrestrial TV and having to use catch up services to watch daily news.
Would definitely return.

Close to Inverness if you needed anything. Hosts were great with communication. Very warm cottage so was never cold. Visited in February. Comfortable beds.
Wow. Such a beautiful home exuding comfort and style. Everything has been thought of & more. It was super clean. The beds were lovely & comfortable. Loads of wood for ALL the fires! It really is a stunning place. The hot tub is amazing. We loved playing table tennis to decide who was cooking!!
It’s not quite on the loch & there is a walk down a slope & then through a field - too far just to run down for a quick swim without taking things with you. It’s more like a ten minute walk. Also if you have people with mobility difficulties, they may struggle to get there.
