Stayed Oct 15, 2025Beautiful cottage exactly as described and pictures. Very cozy. Proximity to Ben Nevin is perfect and the Ben Nevin Inn is a great dinner option if you don’t want to drive. Loved it.

Stayed Sep 10, 2025Just awesome place. It was exactly what we wanted a beautiful cottage,private w/wood stove Plenty of firewood, host was great although we didnt need anything except firewood (we had a fire in the morning and again when we returned) didnt need any other heat source. Host responded quickly to refill the wood bin outside. Hiking was exceptional, views unbelievable never been to Scotland and it was wonderful. one of the best VRBO stays and we have stayed in many before! Only thing not correct in the listing was there wasn't a laundry machine we counted on to do mid-vacation cloths washing. But the stay over shadowed that dissapointment.

Stayed Jul 26, 2025The keys were in the door ready for us. Everything we needed was available. Wi-Fi was good. Only issue was the staff door to the Ben Nevis Inn, it made a loud banging noise when people were coming in & out. The cottage was extremely comfortable.

Stayed Oct 12, 2024Great communication and arrived to warm cottage with key in the door. All the needed kitchen appliances and a great log burner in the main room. A bathroom with choice of shower or bath. A comfortable bedroom and bed. Fab location in Glen Nevis close to outstanding Ben Nevis Inn, but importantly no noise disturbance! Very happy with our stay.

Stayed Aug 31, 2024Beautiful little cottage at the foot of Ben Nevis, tucked out of the way but so close to all amenities. Also very quiet at night considering it's next to the inn . The cottage had everything we needed for a lovely stay, the bed was extremely comfy and the cottage warm and cosy. Couldn't have asked for more and would definitely recommend/ try to visit again.
