The house in a position to die for! 24 miles south-west of Inverness and 52 miles from Fort William, Bunloit Farmhouse is an extremely comfortable house high above Loch Ness on a small privately-owned country Estate of 1200 acres. It stands detached - tastefully refurbished and decorated - in its own fenced area of grassy grounds (garden furniture). But what really makes Bunloit so special is is its amazing situation. It has THE most spectacular view right along the whole length of Loch Ness and across it to the mountains on the far side from its garden and south-facing front windows. There can be few better places from which to watch for the appearance of 'Nessie' in the waters below. Visitors may well be loathe to leave it even to drive down the few miles to the hotels, museums and small shops of Drumnadrochit (6 miles) or Fort Augustus (22 miles) - let alone drive further afield to explore the famous 'Road to the Isles', the Isle of Skye, Plockton, The Black Isle, etc. etc.
Some other houses can offer the same wealth of possible excursions, but very few can offer a panoramic view such as this - a view which changes with every passing cloud, boat (or monster!) - or the ability to enjoy it quietly away from the madding crowd.
From 2012, Bunloit Farmhouse will also have its own wind turbine, so you can enjoy all the house has to offer in the knowledge that it's 'green-powered' as well.
Heating is by electricity (INCLUDED), open-fire and wood-burning stoves (a basket of logs INCLUDED). Bed-linen & towels are INCLUDED. Pets by arrangement. Smoking is not allowed within the house. A refundable Householders deposit is required. Wi-Fi is available, subject to provider.
