    This facility was built to be a B&B; thus, it is well-laid out and very efficient. Jane, our host, is super nice and accommodating. A walking trail is nearby, also a convenient restaurant only a short walk away. The breakfasts were outstanding....

    Stunningly beautiful location - Drumnadrochit is a lovely town, and the location of BalmRidge is a joy to look at. My favorite thing was breakfast and looking at the stunning views out of the breakfast room windows. Jane and James are wonderful...
