"The perfect place for our stay.

Best coffee that I have tasted in Scotland.

The welcoming pack is a lovely gesture and the special gift (for me) will make me a Singleton admirer for years to come.

I couldn't find a scissors!"

Tip:
"Take a lovely walk in Relig Glen along the banks of the stream. If you are a botanist, it might take an hour, but if you just want a nice stroll, expect your walk to take 35 to 45 minutes.

We had breakfast one morning in the Square, Beauly and had dinner in the Priory Hotel.
Both were lovely."

Thanks for this great review of your short break in Affleck Chalet - we're really pleased you enjoyed your stay in Moniack and that you enjoyed the welcome pack. Thanks also for your visitor tips. Best wishes Antonia and Richard (ps - the scissors are in the draw marked knives - I need to make that more obvious).

"- the property is maintained to a high standard and credit must be given to the extremely high level of cleanliness throughout
- attention is paid to the little details that makes your stay feel special, from the locally produced whisky, coffee, milk and eggs to the fresh seasonal flowers

"

Tip:
"- visit Glen Affric, lots of opportunities to stop and enjoy whatever makes you happy
- go see the dolphins at Chanonry Point
- take a wee donner along the road to Reelig Glen, it is magical at all times of the year"

"Immaculate cabin! We had a fantastic time and very much enjoyed our stay.

The road out the front was a bit closer to the cabin than expected so people were able to see in and traffic speed/noise was the only reason we marked down slightly as wasn't quite as private as we would have liked but overall it was a great location for walking to Reelig Glen and travelling to explore further afield in all directions."

Tip:
"Velocity in Inverness is a lovely vegan cafe and Salters in Cannich was a bit odd but food was good and they had vegan options too.

Remember to take pound coins for the car parks in Glen Affric!"

Thank you for your kind review - it was a pleasure to host your stay in Affleck Chalet and we really liked the great visitor destination tips you wrote about in our guest book. Thanks for looking after Affleck so well during your Easter break and also for the feedback regarding the location. We hope to welcome you back. Best wishes Antonia and Richard Location information for visitors - Affleck Chalet is set back roughly 4 metres from a single-track country road which gives access to Reelig Glen Tall Trees trail parking, approximately 1/2 mile away, as well as scattered local housing, farming, etc. The chalet has large, private woodland garden grounds on the banks of a stream to the rear and sides, has off-road parking beside the chalet, and is set behind a small garden area with a stone dyke to the front; this has wild roses, ferns, hawthorn and other natural screening growing along the top and some small trees there too - the vegetation provides some screening (better in the summer when in full leaf), but allows a view out to the front beyond the garden, as well as letting light to the front garden area and into the chalet. The lane outside is popular with walkers, runners and cyclists, etc., and may be slightly busier with vehicles travelling to Reelig Glen parking at peak holiday times. For location images, check Google street view - images from 2021 - and our social media (Facebook and Instagram).
