Guests Comments

“2nd visit here. Fantastic house. Fully equipped. Clean, no expense spared on decor. You will not be disappointed. Plenty of Deer and Stag in garden daily. Definitely recommend”.

“Our stay at Waterloo House was everything we wanted it to be. The house was furnished to a high standard and had everything we required. The views and hot tub are the highlights along with the Wildlife that visits every day. The house is a great location for exploring the area and is a ten minute drive from the famous Achmelvich beach. Highly recommend.”

“Waterloo House is special. We were in Europe for a month and it was our favorite accommodation. The house is really lovely and feels very spacious. It is beautifully appointed and as soon as you walk in you’ll feel like you are at home. Ben is really quick to respond to any questions. We couldn’t fault this place – the hot tub is fabulous and we even had deer in the front yard. All the appliances are of a high standard including the washing machine and dryer. Lochinver town is an easy 20 – 30 minute walk away and has a couple of small shops, a butcher and everything you will need for your stay. Waterloo House is highly recommended.”

“Beautiful property – well presented with every possible modern convenience. Set in an extremely scenic location. The large hot tub proved an excellent addition. Ben was most helpful.”

“A fabulous location. Stunning house which has made the most of the area. Very well appointed Plenty of space if the weather isn’t great. En suite bathrooms are a bonus…no queues in the morning ! Hot tub is fab. Makes sure you always have a camera handy for the wildlife. We were lucky to see Deer, badgers and even a pine marten on the day we left. A 5 star house in a 5 star location. Our big bonus was21 to 26 degrees and bright sunshine most of the week !!”
