While some minor maintenance issues are noted, the overall sentiment is positive, with many expressing a desire to return.

Cleanliness

Most guests found the cottage clean and tidy, with only a few mentioning the need for a deeper clean or specific issues like mould spores on windows. The positive remarks on cleanliness far outweigh the negatives.

Location

The location is highly praised for its tranquillity and proximity to local attractions and amenities. Some guests were disappointed by the lack of advertised views, but the overall feedback on location is very positive.

Comfort

Guests frequently mention the comfort of the beds and the cosiness of the cottage. A few comments suggest room for improvement, such as the need for better blinds or doors for privacy and light disturbance, but these are minor compared to the overall comfort experienced.

Facilities

The cottage is generally well-equipped, with a special mention of the kitchen. However, several reviews point out maintenance issues like a non-working TV, log burner problems, and a leaky toilet, which suggests room for improvement in this category.

Thoughtfulness

Guests have noted welcome packs and fresh flowers, indicating the owners' thoughtfulness. However, as these gifts are not consistently mentioned by all reviewers, it is politely noted that such gestures, while appreciated, may not be guaranteed for every stay.

About this property

Tigh Fasgaidh is a detached, two-storey property located in Ardelve just over a mile away from the rural village of Dornie. A couple of minutes’ walk will bring you the pebbled shores of Loch Alsh with views of the mountains and Lochs. The former croft house offers traditional charm with a seamless blend of modern luxury, ideal for both a family adventure to the Scottish Highlands and a base for the more experienced hill walker. On entering the property, you will step into the tiled garden room, the perfect spot for kicking off your muddy boots; the garden room provides access to the living room space and the ground floor bedroom. The ground floor double bedroom with en-suite boasts a modern neutral colour palette with a stunning feature brick wall to highlight the tradition and history of the house. Also opening from the garden room is the cosy sitting room and dining area. This features a warming woodburning fireplace with sofas and TV, making this the perfect location for relaxing during the evening; In here, you will also find a dining area with seating for six people.

The area offers several opportunities to enjoy the Scottish Highlands with areas to suit both the experienced climber and hill walker, as well as families.
