This single-story secluded cottage provides the ultimate Highland hideaway. Sitting its own private glade in the middle of the woods this little gem was previously two estate worker cottages now renovated to provide a single 2 bedroom luxury getaway. The extensive fully fenced garden offers direct access to wonderful hill and forest walks up to the Great Glen Way and the wilderness of the Highlands and yet is only minutes from the amenities of Inverness and Loch Ness. Sit in the hot tub under the pagoda and enjoy the peace, tranquillity and clear air or cosy up in front of the log burner in the stylish sitting room.

Home away from home in a beautiful private rural setting

The cottage is in a very private setting and has everything you need for a holiday away from home. The check-in instructions are clear and simple. The few ocasions we contacted the owner resulted in very quick responses and resolution of our minor issues.

A lovely cottage with everything you need. Very tastefully decorated, great utility area for coming back and after walking dogs. Very private with a large garden area. Lovely walks from the property. Close to Inverness if you needed anything. Hosts were great with communication. Very warm cottage so was never cold. Visited in February. Comfortable beds.

Had a lovely restful few days at Upper Dunain. The house is ideally situated to have some peace, privacy and be surrounded by the estate land/woods - red kites flying around every day. Completely fenced in and my border collie loved the freedom while I knew he was safely contained within the grounds. Will be back …

We found be bungalow easily thanks to the detailed dirctions provided. The bungalow was excellent in all respects. Its position was better than we expected or could have expected. The garden was, as was stated, dog secure with excellent but not obtrusive fencing. There was plenty of parking for our car and trailer.
The bungalow had everything you need including very good internet connection.

The property is ideally situated for touring.

Would we return, very much so. It provided the perfect base for our holiday, our dogs throughly enjoyed themselves.

We have just spent the most wonderful four nights at Upper Dunain. The house and location looked lovely online but when we arrived we were blown away. Everything is gorgeous, spotlessly clean and high quality. We loved the hot tub and once heated it didn’t take long to get warm again. We didn’t want to leave and this has certainly raised the bar for what we want when on holiday. The weather wasn’t great but this didn’t matter as much as we had such a lovely place to relax in and we could use the hot tub at anytime as it was well covered. All the team we spoke to from first booking and then any queries along were very helpful. Thank you so much we will certainly be back if we are in the area again.

Upper Dunain is a delightful place to stay. It is extremely well appointed, cosy and located perfectly between Loch Ness and Inverness.
All the instructions provided were very clear and Gigina was swift and responsive in her communications.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend a stay here. A real gem of a find,
