The Granary Drumnadrochit - Loch Ness
Drumnadrochit, Glenurquhart, Strathglass & Beauly

Stayed at this wonderful cottage in the October half term, what a great find . While it may not be wilderness, it is very peaceful in situation but we liked the fact you could walk into the village for amenities. The cottage itself is just fabulous. The quality of furnishings are some of the best compared to other cottages we have stayed in . The place was immaculate, every attention to detail had been made . Everything was there that youd need for a home from home stay . It was super warm and cosy . Drumnadrochit is central to all places to visit, north or south . If you book this cottage you will not be disappointed. We've stayed in many over the years and this one is by far one of the best

Lovely stay at The Granary. Clean, everything catered for and was home from home, in a beautiful quiet location. Perfect base for exploring the area. Very welcoming hosts and would recommend highly.

Been using Wilderness cottages for over 10 years now,, I think that says all you need to know

Our second visit to this lovely cottage and first time with our dog. Mairi and Paul were friendly and accommodating hosts (especially when our car broke down!) and the cottage was as welcoming and ideally situated as we remembered it. Had some fabulous walks from the door in Urquhart Bay Woods and further afield at Rogie Falls and saw dolphins at Chanonry Point. For dog friendly places to eat can recommend Fiddlers Fish and Chip Van, the Loch Ness Inn and the Snow Goose in Inverness ( dog friendly spaces need to be pre-booked at the latter two). A wonderful break with glorious weather . Definitely on our list of places to return to one day!

Fantastic stay at The Granary. Everything we needed was there. Yvonne and Colin are great hosts. Lots to do close by, or short drive away. One of our favourite holiday cottages we have stayed in. Really hope to go back next year.

The Granary was ideal for our family holiday. It had everything we needed and was clean, tidy and cozy. It is in a great location with lots to do in and around Drumnadrochit or within a relatively short drive. Plodda Falls in Glen Affric, dolphin watching at Chanonry Point and cycling beside the Caledonian Canal just three highlights.

Great place to stay. It has everything you need for total comfort.

We had a wonderful stay at The Granary. We are a family of 4 and the setup was perfect - truly a home-from-home. The cottage is just a short walking distance to cafes, restaurants, gift shops and the Post Office and we also managed to watch our first game of Shinty. Absolutely recommend The Granary to anyone visiting the Loch Ness area.

This was our ninth visit to the Granary and we're planning on returning next year. The Granary has every convenience we need and is centrally located for many outings. The owners are a delight...so friendly and helpful.

Exactly as advertised. Beautiful cottage and very cosy with log fire. Spacious and like a home from home. The family were very friendly and helpful and were happy to help you see the best of Scotland. Will defiantly be recommending this holiday to everyone.

Lovely time at the Granary house had everything you would need for a comfortable relaxing stay. Great position within waking distance of good pubs/eateries. Welcoming hosts there if you need them but not intrusive. Beautiful walks nearby and Inverness a short drive away. Would definitely recommend

Great cottage,excellent location,second time staying there. Colin and Yvonne are the best hosts,their local knowledge and friendly attitude is second to none.If you want mountain biking, kayaking, paddle boarding or hiking, definitely worth the stay. We will visit again without a doubt.

House was perfect for our family of four. Garden with bbq and fire pit (and red squirrels) was amazing. Family/owners beside us couldn't have been more friendly and helpful.

Home away from home! This is a real gem of a cottage, with beautiful walks, amazing views and pubs, shops, cafes right on the doorstep! The owners were so welcoming offering us their knowledge of walks and places to visit in the area. The owners dog Rusty was a real hit with our little boy, and the owners even asked if our little boy wanted to play with their children in their garden. Thank you for an amazing week in your cottage Yvonne and Colin, we have never felt so welcome!

This is by far the best self catering cottage that we have stayed in. The layout of the cottage has been well thought out and all our requirements met. The area is an ideal centre for touring the Highlands, walking and wild life watching in the more remote glens. Yvonne,husband and family are very friendly and willing to provide assistance when required.

A beautiful cottage. Everything you could need for a home from home.

Lovely cottage in a beautiful area. Friendly owners happy to share their local knowledge of the area. Would definately recommend this cottage.

We had a lovely week at the Granary, the cottage is absolutely stunning with two great sized bedrooms & his and hers bathrooms! The log burner was great when the weather turned colder and the kitchen had everything you'd need. Would thoroughly recommend.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the Granary. It is a lovely characterful cottage fitted and furnished to very high standards with two immaculate bathrooms, lovely kitchen, very comfortable beds and everything you could wish for. Everything was spotless and the cottage is within walking distance of local amenities. Great value, highly recommended.

Have just spent a super week at the beautiful little cottage in Drumnadrochit. The Granary is well situated for local amenities, very peaceful & has everything one needs. We found a fabulous restaurant - The Loch Ness Inn - we ate there most evenings. I would definitely recommend The Granary.

Very comfortable accommodation-the Granary had been sympathetically and tastefully restored. Owners were very helpful and very kindly invited us to share their barbecue on our last evening. Weather was fantastic and we found plenty to do in the area.

We recently stayed at The Granary for six nights and received a very warm welcome from the owners, fresh flowers and biscuits greeted us on arrival. The property is absolutely lovely and very well equipped, We could not fault it at all, The perfect place for a couple or family with two lovely bedrooms and two bathrooms, If you are looking for an isolated cottage in the middle of nowhere then this is probably not for you as it is in the back garden of the owners property, but it is quiet, private and perfectly located for walking to the local pubs and shops in the village. The scenery around the local area is stunning and the town of Inverness is just a twenty minute drive away. We would recommend this property and would certainly stay there again.

The Granary is so lovely and a real home from home - very well equipped and comfortable. We had a warm greeting on arrival from the owners and some lovely biscuits! The house is very functional and well located for exploring Loch Ness, Glen Affric, Inverness etc. The kitchen is practical and has everything you need for a self catering holiday. The decor and comfort is excellent - thoroughly recommend staying here.

Lovely little cottage in a beautiful setting. The cottage had everything needed for an excellent stay. Owners (who live in adjacent property) very friendly and helpful. Only one issue, if using sat nav, post code will take you to the wrong property.

Dear Mrs Etheridge, thank you for your feedback, unfortunately it is very common in rural Scotland, that the post code will cover multiple properties, hence why we provide detailed directions to find each property. We do offer our sincere apologies for any inconvenience that this caused.

We had a wonderful holiday in Scotland and loved our stay at the Granary which was well kitted out with all modern facilities, lovely kitchen and bathrooms, very clean with plenty of space and just what we needed for a family of four. The flowers were a lovely touch and the shortbread biscuits went down a treat, especially with the kids. Thank you to Yvonne and Colin for their warm hospitality will recommend the cottage to friends and family.

Outstanding property in a great location. Cottage well equipped and very comfortable. Spacious and well laid out. Owners were lovely and helpful.

Amazing cottage. The house had everything we needed and was so pleased with all the extras for our two-year-old like stair gates, a travel cot with a mattress, and a high chair! The owners were so lovely and really helpful with tips for things to do in the local area. Would definitely return as it's such a lovely corner of the country to stay in.

Lovely cottage in a great location for exploring the highlands. Owners, Colin and Yvonne gave us a very warm welcome and were full of great local information enabling us to get the most out of our stay and very helpful. For an exciting stay in the highlands this is definitely the place to stay. I would recommend The Granary to all,we'll be seeing them again on our next trip to Scotland. Thanks for making it so memorable. Best wishes for the future.

We had an wonderful time at this absolutely beautiful cottage. It's perfectly equipped and very clean. The location is great to explore the Highlands. Thank you to our hosts Yvonne and Colin who made us feel very welcome!

The Granary is a beautiful cottage in a stunning setting. We immediately felt at home and we were both very impressed with the cleanliness and the attention to detail. Kirsty, the owner, had thought of everything and the cottage was really well equipped. Kirsty even left us some beautiful roses and a bottle of wine. It's in an ideal location for Drumnadrochit village, just a few minutes walk to the shops and restaurants, and is also perfect for touring the Highlands by car, as there are many stunning places to see, such as Urquhart Castle, Fort Augustus, Eilean Donan castle, Fort George to spot the dolphins (we did!) and Plockton, to name a few. We really enjoyed our stay at the Granary and we loved waking up to the sound of the wee burn at the side of the cottage. It's a lovely , very comfortable place to relax and unwind in, as everything you need is there.

We stayed at " The Granary" for a week , its centrally located in the Highlands great for exploring the west and east coast, the Cottage is furnished to a very high standard and very comfortable . Its a 5 minute walk into the village of Drumnadrochit with great pubs and Restaurants and there are walks straight from you're door. There was a very welcoming bottle of wine and cake from the owner Kirsty left out for us on our arrival and we couldn't of picked a better place to stay. Thank you once again to Wilderness Cottages for a superb holiday. We will be back .

The Granary was the very first place that we rented in Scotland and we had a wonderful week. The house is excellent and stands head and shoulders above the rest of the accommodations that we have stayed at since then.

Lovely cottage. All our pre-ordered shopping was put away which was brilliant and we were left a bottle of wine, a cake and flower. Really thoughtful generous touch. I would just point out that the photos are a little out of date as there is a large hedge now, outside the front door across the drive so it is more enclosed than we thought it would be. It was not a problem. Would recommend staying there.

Very nice place to stay - comfortable, quiet, well-equipped, and within walking distance of the village. Highly recommended.

We had a fantastic 2 week stay at the Granary. A home from home. Perfect setting and place to stay for days out across the highlands. We went up to John o groats and across to the Isle of Skye. Our children enjoyed the highland wildlife park the best and meeting the polar bears. Fully recommend the granary and we will be back again.

We've just spent our honeymoon at the granary.... its a lovely cottage, a home from home, very well equipped. On arrival we found flowers cakes and a bottle of wine, very welcome after a long journey. Would definitely stay there again.

Very comfortable cottage - enjoyed our week. It is a great location for touring the Highlands and is not too remote. Hope to return soon.

Nice house to spend the week for 2 adults and 2 kids, plus dog. Lots of good walks closeby, and in a good location. Even got enough sun in April to sit in the garden.

Second stay at The Granary. March weather was a bit cool, but this cottage is warm and comfortable. With a long journey from California, the blackout shades in the bedrooms were most conducive to getting some good sleep. Everything you need is here for a quiet, restful stay.

Perfect location touring the highlands in a quiet setting. Very clean, comfortable and well-appointed cottage.

Second time with Wilderness Cottages. The Granary was a wonderful cottage, in a great location. A lovely host, giving a nice welcome surprise, also passed on a card and momento, on our 25th anniversary. Everything you need. Would definately go back.

The Granary was a lovely cottage to base our holiday in and explore Inverness, Loch Ness, Fort Augustus and Isle of Skye. It had everything we needed , wifi , dishwasher and washing machine were excellent facilities. Lovely accommodation in a quiet location and dog friendly. We found the cottage very clean and comfortable.We took advantage of the shopping unpacking service which was a wonderful service to offer! Weather was fab, nowhere nicer than Scotland when the sun is shinning!

Comfortable cottage, in a quiet, ideal position for exploring the Loch Ness area. Beds very comfortable. Second bedroom could benefit from a blackout blind.

We had a lovely stay. The house is very comfortable and clean. All the little extra touches like the Christmas tree, milk, butter, and wine in fridge were so thoughtful. It was a great way to spend New Year's week.

stayed in the granary august 2011, lovely cottage thanks to the owners and wilderness..be back.. simon, therese,bradley

We can think of absolutely nothing that the owners of The Granary could have done to make our stay more enjoyable. The cottage is extremely attractive and well equipped and the many thoughtful extras supplied made it just perfect. We would have no hesitation in returning and recommending it to friends and relations. Thank you Kirsty and Callum

Wow!! As soon as we stepped in, it was like being at home. The decoration and the attention to detail was brilliant. We had a very warm welcome from Kirsty and Calum, and there was a lovely bottle of wine in the fridge together with some homemade scones, what a nice touch.
We have stayed at many cottages in Scotland, and this one was definitely the best. It is perfectly situated for touring the area and you certainly do not have to go far to enjoy the wonderful scenery. The weather helped as it was hot and sunny for most of the week.
This is somewhere we would love to come back to and spend more time.
Thanks Kirsty and Calum for letting us share The Granary, it was superb!

I’ve stayed in quite a few holiday cottages around Drumnadrochit over the years but this is by far the best one we have stayed in! very friendly owners, quiet location and beautifully clean! a credit to the owners.

We are both still missing being at the Granary and each day we say we wish we were still there! hopefully we will stay again because we found it so perfect. and i will definitely be using wilderness cottages again, thank you to all concerned for the perfect escape.

We stayed here over Christmas, and had a fantastic time. A warm welcome from Kirsty and Calum, a Christmas tree, a lovely cosy cottage, some great walks from the door, and some good places to go and have a meal and a drink afterwards.

Thanks for a wonderful holiday

This place does not disappoint. The quality and attention to detail is a credit to the owners. We really enjoyed our stay and will be back.

We have just returned from a weeks holiday at The Granary.
Wonderful accomodation, beautiful scenery, and a delightful place to visit.

Our two daughters (2 and 7) had a great time.
Thank you,
The Lawrie Family
