Loch View South House is the smallest of three superbly situated, eco-built, holiday houses occupying an elevated point overlooking Loch Duntelchaig, near Inverness and enjoying panoramic views across the loch and to the distant mountains of the west.
The location is truly spectacular and the activities available in the area are multitude, particularly for those with a love of outdoor pursuits. Whether you are a hill walker, road cyclist, mountain biker, windsurfer, rock climber, skier, snowboarder, golfer, angler or paraglider - it can all be done in either the immediate area or within a 30-minute radius of Loch Duntelchaig. Some of the finest rock climbing in the north of Scotland is practised on the cliffs at the southern end of the loch. Fishing tuition can be arranged on the loch and a boat is available.
Inverness is a 20-minute drive away and all the facilities and attractions of the Capital of the North can be enjoyed there.
