Summary: Epic location, amazing views, peace and seclusion from a busy world. The Boat house is designed beautifully and is very comfortable. The off grid credentials are perfect for getting away and finding some real quietness. The only let down is the shower (pressure is poor and if the wood burner has been going for any length of time it will be scalding hot). Tip - run the hot water at full pressure until cold water starts to replace the hot in the holding tank to be able to shower decently, takes about 20 minutes! Either that or be prepared for a cold water dip in the loch. Also if you enjoy your fly fishing, take your own equipment as the provided is not sufficient - the wild brownies are great fun. My girlfriend and I enjoyed the stay immensely (5 nights) and look forward to returning one day. Keep an eye out for the otters on the loch edges, they are great fun to watch and may even end up underneath the boat house at times.
