It was a fine stay. Nothing spectacular. The host should definitely add to their Expedia listing that you will be required to leave 20 pounds in cash PER NIGHT if you would like to use the hot tub in the Bonnie Prince Charlie sweet what you pay extra money for already in the listing price. I double checked when I got there to be sure that I didn't miss it. I did not travel with cash so this was kind of annoying. The host could have definitely made note of this in emails as well. We booked this room well in advance specifically for the hot tub. Other than that breakfast was nice. An idea might be to add a microwave to the room. Also this is quite far from Inverness if you are hoping to be close by.
Nice quiet out of the way place with beautiful grounds. The room was spacious, bed and pillows were comfortable. The bathroom was XL, the only ding would be the shower pressure was very low. It took awhile to get the conditioner out of my hair. Never saw any staff. Overall still would recommend.
We had the most wonderful stay at the Highland Bear Lodge. The property is absolutely stunning, and our room (The Bonnie Prince Charlie Suite) was amazing. We felt like we had gone back in history and were surrounded by luxury. The room and bathroom were beautifully appointed.
The continental breakfast was fabulous and very thoughtful. We couldn’t have asked for anymore from our hosts. Thank you.
The place was nice,cozy and clean. Excellent ambience for a short getaway. The food provided was something which I found was not as expected. Breakfast was frozen items and most of them were things that we dont eat. Other than that it was an excellent place.
We stayed in the Bonnie Prince Charlie room, this was both charming, comfortable and spacious. We didn’t see the hosts but were given information to contact them if a need . Continental breakfast was left in the room. The driveway was very steep, would recommend arriving in daylight. Would highly recommend this lodge.
Beautiful stay! Higly recommend. We stayed in The Bonnie Prince Charlie room and loved it! Big beautiful room, comfortable bed, stunning view, gorgeous bathroom. Breakfast was in room and the host provided everything we might need. We truly felt like the King and Queen of the castle. I wish we had stayed there longer.
The house is at the top of a steep hill, but there is a car park area before it gets too steep if your uncomfortable driving up and the walk is quick and easy the rest of the way.
This place was fantastic! Location perfect for exploring highlands. I highly recommend and would definitely stay here again.

This property is absolutely gorgeous. Was not crazy about how impersonal the interaction was with owner/staff. Never saw anyone and keys were left in the door. The bed was worn out and both my husband and I had back pain. Zero water pressure in the showers. Originally wanted something close to Inverness which was suggested by Travelocity but this is nowhere near Inverness. Even our GPS got lost finding this. It’s not that I wouldn’t recommend this, it just wasn’t the right fit for our needs.
I think it was perfect for us. We were on a sabbatical and it was so quiet. The view from the outside balcony was enjoyable in the evening. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom had a bathtub which was the perfect ending to a fun packed day of hiking. Thank you so much for your hospitality. I would definitely recommend this place.

We had a very nice stay. The lodge is very nice and clean. The only issue we had was with the water pressure in the shower. There basically was none and it made it very difficult to wash and rinse. The temperature was also hard to control with the water either being very cold, or very very hot. Otherwise, it was a nice place.
We absolutely loved our time here. Mark, the owner, was helpful and kind. He offers tours of the area, which I highly recommend. The house is lovely, quiet and comfortable. The surrounding area is absolutely gorgeous.
What an amazing place!! We stayed in a hut and it was very clean and cozy. We were even given some items for breakfast and felt very well taken care of. Highly recommend!!!
The property is beautiful and our host was lovely. We had booked the Bonny Prince Charlie Suit for the use of the hot tub, and were a little turned off to find out (upon arrival) that there was an extra charge to use the hot tub, even though we paid more for the room to be able to use it. It kind of put a bad taste in our mouth for the rest of the stay. The in-room provided breakfast was quite lovely, with a lot of options.
Amazing stay! Check in instructions were very clear and no issues finding the property.
Room was stunning, bathroom bigger than my flat! Hospitality tray and in room breakfast was very generous. Hot tub was amazing and the robes were very much appreciated.
