"A great base for touring the local area."
The welcome pack was a lovely touch and the wine was perfect. We will plan to come back in spring. Perfectly situated for viewing the lovely area. Had a visit one morning from a red squirrel which made my day. It really is idyllic, peaceful apartment and we will be trying to get back next year.

"The apartment was lovely and bigger than expected."
It was warm and cosy and very well equipped. We could only stay for 4 nights out of 7 because of snow, we wish we could have stayed the whole week. Lynn was very helpful and understanding.
-
"This was our second visit to the apartment, which speaks volumes."
It’s a lovely little apartment in a beautiful location. It’s very clean and comfortable. There’s lots to do within a relatively short drive along some fantastic roads. I have no doubt that we’ll be back
-
"Super place to stay."
Very peaceful and comfortable with all you could need. Lovely welcome pack was really appreciated too. Would definitely recommend
-
"Good size accommodation for 2 people and 1 large dog."
Great location for exploring the area, and further afield. The welcome pack was very thoughtful and handy. The apartment was clean and comfortable and well equipped. The only thing we couldn't find was a mop to clean the hard floor,at the end of our stay(maybe we just didn't see it). We liked the huge area that was available for our dog to explore and if the weather had been better we would have made more use of the outside extras provided. Great value for money.

"The apartment was small but every detail was well thought about."
It was in a perfect location with so much to see and do within easy driving distance. There was a thoughtful welcome pack on our arrival which gave us everything we needed for our first breakfast.
-
"Had an amazing stay at this beautiful apartment."
A little smaller than expected, looked bigger on the photos but perfect for a cosy place to chill for two people. Would not want anymore in there. Space outside was perfect. Bats out like clockwork at 6.50pm! Had everything we needed. Cooking facilities were enough for us with ready meals and easy meals. Welcome basket was very kind and the wine and milk much appreciated. Although right next to the cottage, we didn’t feel intruded upon and plenty of privacy as the back garden is huge and hedged. Lovely location for our many walks and peaceful which is what we required. Great place for our dog, Sidney. Would definitely recommend for a couple as a get away and would return again if in the area.
-
"Very convenient and clean."
Located in a quiet yet handy spot with good directions. The apartment has everything that you'll need for a restful stay. A really lovely touch to have a generous basket of supplies provided.
-
"Lakeside Apartment is the perfect place to relax and get away or to use as a homebase for visiting the highlands."
It has everything you'd need to make meals, while having the options of multiple resaurants near by. The house is well maintained and very clean. I highly recommend.
-
"We had a lovely week here, 2 adults, 2 children and 1 dog."
Plenty of space, we had everything we needed and more. The location is really good for exploring. Beautiful place. We were all sad to leave.
So glad you all enjoyed your stay. Property Owner
-
"Lovely quiet location with great garden."
Hosts available but not intrusive. Welcome pack much appreciated. Some aspects showing signs of age - worn chair, old pots & pans etc. Would benefit from having wifi but adequate mobile signal. Only real complaint being the lack of a decent oven - no issue with it being a freestanding plug-in, but the only oven available is simply too basic & small (9 litres) for self catering.
-
"Had a great time in the Highlands, would highly recommend this little cottage."
The owners wer super nice and so thoughtful.
So pleased you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner
-
"If you are after peace and quiet then this is the place for you, the apartment is very clean, spacious and well stocked kitchen wise, a welcome basket was there on our arrival, very thoughtful, we will seriously consider staying here again."
So glad you enjoyed your stay in the apartment. Look forward to seeing you again one day. Property Owner

"Stunning apartment and well equipped."
It really was like home from home (but with better views!) We have already recommended you to a few of our relatives and friends. Thank you for such an enjoyable week, we will definitely return in the future.
-
"Great accommodation, far enough away from the madding crowd to be quiet but near enough to Drumnadrochit and the hills for convenience."
We were warm in deep snow and sub-zero temperatures.
-

Absolutely fantastic I am defo going to book same time next year peace and quiet seem lovely people they never bothered me at all it is lovely Thankyou again to Lynn and keith
-
"Very comfortable stay in this barn conversion."
Very well equipped with almost everything you need on holiday...only negative point was lack of a decent sized oven to cook the food that I had taken with me. Fabulous welcome hamper to greet us on arrival which was very much appreciated. Definitely recommend this property for its location in exploring the Loch Ness region...
-
"Good reception to property, which was clean tidy and had amenities as advertised."
The only thing that spoilt it for us was we felt someone had come into the accommodation whilst we were off property. No note was left to say who, why or what for. Which left us quite on edge and uneasy. This is the only reason for low recommendation. As we didn’t see owners after initial contact we didn’t say anything.
-
"Excellent apartment in quiet secluded garden."
Very well furnished. Good value for money. Unbelievable welcome pack provided by owners.
-
"Enjoyed the stay, comfortable, clean and well appointed."
No WiFi but that was on the listing. Three and EE worked well for call and data. The grounds are lovely and it looks like it will be even better in the summer. Nice and warm with underfloor heating, nothing to complain about.
-
"We had a very comfortable stay at Lakefield."
The owners were very accomodating and welcoming. The location is superb for exploring the Highlands. We had a great time.
-
"A lovely little apartment - perfect for us (2 adults, one child and one dog)."
.very clean, all the things you need, comfortable bedding and an extra mattress provided for the sofa bed. We slept well,. Loft windows open at night , no midges at all. It is a rural setting so tick prevention for dogs advised. Welcome pack much appreciated. Owner very welcoming and on site in the main house, but hardly seen or heard, minimal contact, but there if needed. Large, enclosed garden which our dog loved. Very quiet setting. Enjoyed our stay and highly recommend this apartment.
-
"Beautiful quiet location, very comfy bed, welcome basket with eggs, wine & milk greatly appreciated."
Only problem was power cut but we have stayed in the area before & know these things happen in the Highlands. Owner kindly brought flask of hot water & torch & kept us informed of when power was due back on. Would definitely stay here again.
-
"The house was lovely with everything you need, the surroundings and garden were beautiful and so peaceful, would definitely recommend it."
-
"Perfect, thanks"
-
"What a wonderful week we had at Lakefield."
Keith and Lynn are the perfect hosts. The food hamper was a lovely surprise and basic foods were available. Everything you could possibly need for a relaxing holiday. We will hopefully be booking again later in the year to take our grandsons
-
"Comfortable apartment in a beautiful area."
Hosts were welcoming and kindly left a welcome pack of basics, including wine. Good parking Plenty of places to explore in the area
-
"The apartment was in a beautiful location, well equipped and spotlessly clean."
We very much appreciated the welcome pack! The owners were friendly but never intrusive. There were no faults to find and we definitely plan a return visit.
-
"Keith & Lynn were very welcoming and there was a lovely welcome package of milk, bread, cereal & butter on arrival."
There was a secure area for our dog to roam. Great location for either driving out to the coast or inland. Beautiful vistas within a short drive in every direction
-
"The cottage was absolutely fabulous."
It was immaculate, modern, and it truly felt that the owners took pride in the dtandatd of accomodation they provided. The kitchen equipment was a good quality as were the towels etc. The private secluded garden was an extra bonus.
-
"Lakefield Apartment was perfectly located for our visits to The Nevis Range, Fort Augustus and only around 2 hours from the Isle of Skye,15 minutes down the road you also have Glen Affric which is great for a day out walking and waterfall spotting and 15 minutes the other way you have Urquhart Castle."
The apartment actually looks better in real life than online pics showed, we were a family of 4 with 10 and 13 year old boys and the property gave us enough space to relax and comfortable beds for sleeping. If the weather permits there is a large outside area and BBQ. The property is well presented and spotlessly clean with everything you need for a break. We wouldn't hesitate in suggesting this property to friends and family.
-
"The holiday apartment is good."
Hosts live next door and are lovely. The apartment is central to doing lots of activities however they all are a drive away. Whilst being near Loch Ness - it’s still 6 miles away from any village. Had a great time and created some great family memories.
-
"Property as described, lovely position and excellent value for money."
-
"The cottage is very well equpped and in a lovely peaceful location, but only a few miles from the village."
All appliances modern and very cosy with underfloor heating. Nice welcome basket of goodies very much appreciated. Even chilled wine in fridge. Highly recommend.
-
"Was very dissapointed with its position as we had double checked before we booked that it had a pub nearby which it didnt."
What is listed as a pub is just a b&b and was full while we were there and also wasnt dog friendly. So we had to travel 6 miles to the nearest pub which meant only 1 of us could have a drink not what we expected. Was in the middle of nowhere also only got to meet 1 of the owners we never got to meet the lady who ran the property which has never happened to us before. Not enough clean towels in the property so we had to go ask for more as 2 for a week wasnt enough and the guy seemed suprised we asked for more. Wouldnt go back again far too out of the way to any amenities
-
"Wonderful cottage"
-
"A brilliant holiday in an amazing apartment."
This cozy little place has everything you could ever need....... and more. A welcome pack of groceries (including a bottle of wine), was a lovely addition. There was even a bed and bowls for the dog. Friendly hosts that were happy to help with anything. Ideally situated for exploring the Highlands. I would definitely recommend Lakefield, and I'm sure we'll be back in the future.
-
"Very good apartment."
-
"Ideal location for exploring the Loch Ness area of the Highlands and further afield."
The accommodation was just right for a couple, comfortable and well equipped .Hosts were welcoming but not intrusive. Reference to pub close by is unhelpful as The Steading is really B&B restricted to those staying there and so unavailable for drinks or food when fully booked. In reality the nearest pub about 6 miles away. Overall a lovely place to stay in a beautiful area.
-
"We had a fantastic time exploring the Highlands from this lovely little spot."
The hosts Keith and Lynn were fab and had provided a hamper on arrival with cereal, bread, shortbreads, eggs and the fridge was also stocked with the essentials, milk, butter and even wine!! We definitely brought too much food with us! They had even provided bowls and a bed for the dog which was fab. The only thing we struggled with was drying wet clothes and towels as the heating was under-floor so there were no radiators. But really a minor issue as the flat was lovely and cosy otherwise! Thanks again for a lovely holiday.
-
"You can see this is a nice place from the photos but when we got there we were very pleasantly surprised!"
! Really spacious lounge / kitchen area, lovely sized double room and big enough shower room. All really nicely decorated with everything you need for your stay! Owners really friendly and just left us to it yet we know if we had of needed anything they would be on hand. Lovely quiet spot and bargain price for our 6 nights stay when compared to neighbouring lodges. Our stay could not have been any cosier and perfect and will definitely be back. Thank you :)

"Lovely place to stay beautiful scenery well equipped apartment"
-
"The Lakeside Apartment facilities were faultless, they had thought of everything, and the welcome basket of goodies was most appreciated after a long drive."
I would most definitely return in the future. Jim & Lizy Rae.
-
"Owner was very welcoming, lovely gesture of a welcome pack, apartment was as expected and did not disappoint, only let down was no WiFi or 3G, not a huge problem but if we’d known in advance we would have been prepared, may be worth putting on the apartment listing to make people aware."
Other than that we had a super time.
-
"A beautifully clean, comfortable and peaceful place to stay."
The extra touches, such as a welcome basket were a wonderful bonus. We would definitely recommend.
