Summary: Ideal for restful days with view on a small loch with birds and animals passing. The Hot tube was nice for our muscles relaxing.

Summary: A hidden gem. Spent a weekend of utter bliss in the wilderness here, enjoying the peace and tranquillity, wildlife, taking the boat out (even catching a fish) to relaxing in the hot tub after dark. Bed was cosy, robes were great also! Perfect place to chill out and re-set from a busy life. The location and accommodation are so well thought out. From booking to departure, everything was perfect - staff were on hand to answer any queries and assist if needed. The added provision of the Land Rover to access the accommodation was an added little touch that was needed and enjoyable. Everything you require for a weekend away was thought of in the accommodation. Would return in a minute and counting down the days until we can return again. If you're pondering whether to book - don't, just do it as you wont regret it!

Summary: Wonderful few days in April. The cabin was well equipped and the off-grid facilities easy to use. Plenty firewood and enough electricity through solar/wind power to run the lights and charging devices. Completely by ourselves in isolation with wonderful scenery and some interesting wildlife. Great walks nearby too, so didn’t need to drive anywhere.

Summary: The Boathouse was the most amazing 4 days cut off from Internet...phone...people but not from Nature, fantastic views and absolute peace and quiet...throw in the winter frost, zero light pollution and clear skies, stargazing on the open deck and panorama windows it was magical.

Summary: What an amazing place to stay. Perfect, idyllic location. Situated at the foot of the Tweedmouth monument (1 hour walk) with the most amazing views across Glen Affric. With excusive use of the Boathouse Loch. If you are looking for somewhere to relax, distress, and unwind completely off the grid, this is the ideal holiday. Sitting in the Boathouse with floor to ceiling and wall to wall windows with all aspects of weather, you can enjoy uninterrupted views of the loch and surrounding countryside (panoramic). We spent a week there and saw all manner of wonderful sites from the comfort of the armchairs, from sun to rain, to wind and amazing rainbows. Watching the weather change outside and the loch transform in colour with the changeable weather, just stunning!! The only electric available is enough to charge devices. Cooking and hot water comes from the log fired arga cooker. This property takes you back to basics and essentially cuts you off from the outside world in what would be described as a luxurious way. I could go on about how amazing this is, but the best way is to experience it. The hot tub is fantastic even in the coldest of weather. Lying in the hot tub looking out over the loch is just so relaxing. The staff at Tomich are very warm and friendly Ollie the maintenance man is the perfect host! On hand should you need him, but leaves you to your holiday in peace, the perfect balance of support versus privacy. We highly recommend this property if you truly want to get off grid and unwind without the interruptions of things like the Internet. The only problem we had in the week we were there was the trauma of packing the car to have to leave on our last day, knowing we were going back to civilisation. Thank you to Ollie and everyone at Tomich holidays for an amazing holiday. we will see you again soon.

Summary: The Boathouse is perfectly situated on the edge of a remote loch. We watched ever changing vistas through the floor to ceiling windows; rainbows, sunrises, cloud scapes and even sunshine. We rowed on and swam in the loch, jumping into the hot tub to warm up. Walked over the estate and explored the surrounding area on foot. Plodda Falls is stunning. On a wet day, Ollie arrived with water and firewood which was so helpful. The perfect place to unwind and reset.

Summary: We had a wonderful stay at the Boathouse. The location is superb with lovely views over the lake, sunrises and sunsets and stillness. We felt we had our own mountain and lake. We took the boat out for a tour and there is plenty to explore by foot. The drive up in the Landeover is quite the experience. And as a bonus, Glen Affric is on your doorstep. If you want a quiet getaway and some slow living, this is the place. Hope to be back some day!

Summary: A real treat to stay here. Glorious location and luxurious accommodation. Use of the Landrover was an added bonus, it was really fun driving it. Fired up the hot tub a couple of times and had a little go in the boat, but not great at rowing .

Summary: We had a lovely stay. It is totally off grid so be prepared to switch off from the world completely. I was not quite prepared for being so far away so did have to go and search for further provisions which was not an issue. The use of the 4x4 was much appreciated.

Summary: We absolutely loved our week trip to the boathouse. It was truly a luxury escape from everything. The views from the cabin were breath taking and the lack of wifi and phone signal really helped us to disconnect which was exactly what we were looking for. Everything being wood heated was something to plan our days around but there was nothing better than sitting out watching the stars from the wood fired tub. The team at Tomich Holidays were fantastic, they were super helpful not only with water and fire wood but also their knowledge of the local area and the best places to explore. We would 100% recommend the boathouse and will hopefully be back again in the future!
