Down the lane to the loch Looking down a narrow lane from below two secluded cottages towards Loch Long. Fallen leaves make the steep lane slippery so it must be treacherous in snow.

Derelict shed This derelict shed is nestled below Shore Road on the shore of Loch Long. It is unclear whether it was formerly used for gardening or marine purposes.

9/10 Wonderful! (2 reviews)
Caravan is lovely and comfortable, though can be noisy in stormy weather, though otherwise it's a quiet location. Drive is quite steep for parking. Fantastic views over Loch Long. Access drive is a single road, is quite steep in places and it can be tricky to find the caravan.

Staff were really friendly with a warm welcome on arrival. Room had recently been decorated with good colour choice and matching decor. All in all a good meal and a good room means you have a great start to your holidays. Well done.

We had a very relaxing stay at Bihar, very clean and unlike other properties we have stayed in, all the little bits and pieces you need are in the house, this is the second time we have stayed and hopefully we will stay again. Thank you.
