I highly recommend Achintee cottage no.1. My wife and I and our dog had a thoroughly enjoyable stay. The cottage is luxurious and is in an idyllic setting with fabulous views of Ben Nevis. We slept really well on the comfortable king size bed. The location is very peaceful. Our host and her dog were friendly and welcoming. We would definitely stay here again.

An excellent stay!
The cottage is a lovely, out of the way base for exploring the area. It is well provisioned, warm, tidy and the owners are welcoming and friendly.
The view out the kitchen window is fantastic, and just sets you up for a day of adventure. Perfect for a couple who don’t mind a bit of a stroll into town.

Thanks for a great stay
Lovely cottage decorated to a very high standard. Beautiful location and easy access to many major tourist locations. Easy self check . Was a little bit noisy at times from the cottage above but didn't worry us too much. Overall great 3 day stay.

The appartment is really comfortable, clean and well provided. The only thing we would suggest is to put a sign at the entrance, as there is no way to know that the houses are at the spot. It's also a good place to stay while you visit the highlands.
