We had difficulties locating the property and we were unable to reach the host and her caretaker via the phone numbers that were provided. Fortunately we were able to find the property after running back and forth the road. Once inside the property everything was fine. The property had proper heating and amenities that provided us with a comfortable stay. It was very spacious so we had our own space.

The house has wonderful views and is well located near Carbost and most things you would want to see. It is up a long, narrow road, better traveled for the first time during the day, but then most places up there are! The house was warmer than expected, but it could use some new blankets.
