Heavenly view, so peaceful listening to the wind in the trees. A real getaway from the bustle of modern life, just wished we could have stayed longer. An adventure driving up the hill for a mile or so too!

Drovers Lodge is THE most idyllic spot in this amazing part of Scotland. Our room was absolutely perfect. There was not one detail missed by the most gracious of host, lovely Angela. Not one thing. The "Urquhart" room was perfectly furnished with a true king bed, immaculately clean, perfect bathroom with great water pressure and all with the best views of Loch Ness. The common areas were really lovely and we felt quite comfortable hanging around. There were books about the area you can borrow to read laying about. Also, a well curated selection of small local crafts and snacks were also on offer at very reasonable prices. Breakfasts were also perfectly thought out and considered by Angela. Again, not one detailed missed and she makes it looks effortless. A true gem in this area. We felt so very welcomed and at home. Wish we could've stayed longer!

Bit of a drive to reach the property, but totally worth it when you arrive. Host Angela is simply amazing. The view of Loch Ness is fabulous and the breakfast topped all our other stays.

Quiet place with amazing views of the loch
What a view! If that wasn't enough, the room is very well laid out with good quality furnishings. A lot of though has gone into the decoration of the property. Host is very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was very good. Getting to the property is up a single track road up a hill, with about a mile on dirt track. Best if you take a 4x4.

A True Scottish Location on the "Ness!"
An absolute gem of a place to stay, the hostess Angela was just simply amazing and a lovely person. The Room with view & the service provided by Angela was amazing. I defy anyone not to feel the very same about a stay here. We are hoping to return for longer next year.

This was my favorite stay in three weeks of England, Scotland and Ireland!! Big clean bedroom and bathroom, gorgeous view of Loch Ness, great breakfast and very friendly host and hostess! Everything you could want. The drive up is a little rough, but if my little Ford Fiesta could make it, anybody can!! Wish I could live here! 😊

Idyllic
Stunning location. Beautiful view of lock ness from the julienne balcony of our bedroom, the glass fronted lounge with wood burner and the decking area. The owners were friendly and attentive. Several breakfast options. We had full Scottish which was tasty. Sadly we were only there for the one night.

Our only regret was not staying longer! This is a beautiful place. The hosts are phenomenal and the food was great. Looking forward to coming back! We loved watching the clouds change completely over the loch from hour to hour. The view is absolutely unbeatable.

Drovers Lodge is situated at the top of a beautiful mountain overlooking Loch Ness and the gorgeous valley below. The view is breathtaking -- and the welcome from our hosts was exceptionally warm and gracious. For anyone looking for a place to stay in the area of Inverness and Loch Ness, this is absolutely the place to choose. Gracious, comfortable, delicious, and welcoming..... Just the best....!!

Picture perfect stay
We had an amazing time at Drovers Lodge. The location is perfect if you are looking to explore Inverness and the surrounding areas. The hosts, Angela and James, are extremely knowledgeable and willing to help with anything you need. They even made dinner reservations for us the nights we were there. Breakfast in the morning was made to order and delicious. We really enjoyed the view outside of our window in the general guest space. It was simply breathtaking! Angela and James are kind and you can tell that they love what they do. The lodge is clean and our room was stocked with everything we needed. We cannot wait to go back!

What a great little find!!
Definitely stay here if you are in the area. The couple who own it are really friendly and can't do enough for you - they even arranged for the local restaurant to pick us up and drop us off for dinner! The room was fab. Very cosy and comfortable. Breakfast was great. The location is beautiful - the view over the Loch worth it for the drive up the small windy lane - don't let that put you off! All round a great little find.
