Glen View Lodge
Description
Drumnadrochit 2.2 miles.
Sitting above the stunning rolling hills of Achmonie, near Drumnadrochit, Scotland, Glenview Lodge offers the most spectacular views across the Scottish countryside, with a traditional cottage feel to the beautiful wooden features across the white-painted countryside house.
With an amazing sauna, stunning scenery and easy access to local attractions, this property is the perfect gateway for families or groups of adults, along with their four-legged friend.
Enter into a world of opulence with this stunning property, where you will find all of the bedrooms on the ground floor and the living area on the first floor.
Each with en-suite, the three bedrooms include storage and a view to the outdoors, starting with a king-size with en-suite shower room with marble-look tiles for a contemporary feel, with the bedroom walls painted to reflect the colours of the landscape and the distant mountains, a king-size with an en-suite bathroom, perfect for a relaxing soak amongst the bubbles after a long days hike, a twin filled with natural light and homely décor, sporting an en-suite wet room, and the hidden gem of the house; a sauna equipped with its own shower, an amazing touch to such a beautiful property and one guests are sure to love.
The first-floor holds the living area of the house, and you will be delighted to find an amply fitted kitchen/diner with wonderful burgundy furnishings creating an eye-catching feature within the spacious kitchen area, as well as a glass dining table with seating for six, and you will love the social aspects of cooking here, with room for all of the family to try out some local recipes.
Relaxation comes with the wonderful sitting room, warming you with a woodburning stove as you recline on the sofa, taking in the contemporary finish of the space with a grey feature wall, double doors opening on to the upstairs hall, and of course, the beautiful balcony with French windows, the perfect spot for a hot chocolate in the evening as you and your family point out constellations in the clear skies.
Outside, a wonderful lawn space provides leisure for your pet, whilst you can enjoy a breakfast outside, with views of the hills and farmland surrounding the house.
The local area has ample shops and restaurants, allowing you to stock up essentials in Drumnadrochit as well as trying out local produce in the cafes and bars, or enjoy one of your favourite drinks in the sun.
The local area is simply teeming with different activities to try out, hikes along the great Glen Way, Munros to climb and mountain bike trails, as well as a visit to the stunning Urquhart Castle.
Close to the property is Loch Ness, possibly the most famous of the Scottish Lochs, where you will find a variety of cruises.
Close by is stunning Glen Affric and the newly opened Dundreggan Re-wilding Centre in Glen Moriston.
If you want a more urban day out, head up to Inverness, where you can indulge yourself in the local heritage and history, for example Inverness Castle and a selection of museums available.
There is also the option of Inverness Botanical Gardens for plant lovers, and Inverness Trampoline Park, perfect for a family day out.
With such a beautiful surrounding area giving you all of the best features of the countryside, and still with a bustling town within reach, a stay at Glen View Lodge is sure to be one you will remember.

What guests are saying
House and facilities were lovely.
The view was beautiful and the owner very helpful. Beds were comfortable and there was plenty of storage space. We loved the upside down living. The only thing I’d mention is the temperature, for us it was far too warm. There are individual thermostats in each room that you can change but it was still showing 22 degrees at night in the bedroom. The other thing we noticed is that quite a few bits of crockery were chipped or cracked. Other than that it was well stocked cutlery wise.
The owner of the accommodation was really pleasant.
She had an obvious enthusiasm for the property which was nice. The house was lovely, comfortable and spacious. The kitchen was very well equipped. We had a lovely time there, Drumnadrochit is a VERY special little place, the views from the house were beautiful. We loved everything and would love to return at some point in the future. So grateful we were able to stay in such a wonderful place.
Glenview Lodge is a best kept secret of the Highlands.
The accommodation was perfect for the family and such a high standard. The views of the village and countryside went on for miles and were stunning. Christine was so helpful throughout the planning of the holiday, always emailing me back so quickly when I asked questions. Loads to do in the area being on the edge of Loch Ness and Inverness. Just perfect. We will definitely be going back - even with the drive from London!
