Drynachan Beag B&B

Welcome to Drynachan Beag, a very comfortable Highland home, overlooking picturesque Loch Oich, less than ten minutes from Loch Ness. Drynachan Beag Bed & Breakfast is a recently built bungalow with historical connection to the old cottage next door.

It is built on Drynachan land, which was granted to the grandson of the chief of the Clan Ranald of MacDonnell (c1580). The owner of Drynachan Beag, Caroline Francis, was the previous owner of Drynachan and has a wealth of local historical knowledge.

We can offer a comfortable double room with en-suite shower room, an additional large double room with en-suite bath and shower and space for an extra bed (May-September only), a twin room and a single room. Prices range from £20 to £28 per person per night including breakfast. Children over 8 years and pets are welcome.

Each room has a TV, hairdryer and hospitality tray. We also offer a large guest sitting/dining room with Satellite TV/DVD, log fire and extensive library. Hillwalkers and cyclists are welcome and we are happy to offer early breakfasts (from 6am) or late suppers. We can store bicycles or motorcycles in our locked garage overnight and drying facilities or service washes are available when needed.

Evening meals or light suppers are available at Drynachan Beag by prior arrangement. Alternatively meals are available at the local hotel/bar in Invergarry and there are several choices of places to eat in Fort Augustus. There is a reliable local taxi service for those who don't wish to drive.

We overlook Loch Oich where sea otters have been seen. Behind the cottage is the Great Glen Cycle Path and Drynachan Wood, which is inhabited by red deer, red squirrel, pine martens and many species of wild birds.

Invergarry is an ideal touring base, situated in the heart of the Great Glen. The Great Glen Cycle Track (Fort William to Inverness) is directly above the bungalow and is ideal for mountain bike enthusiasts. The local area is excellent for walking, climbing, pony trekking, cycling, water sports and fishing, as well as Munro and Corbett 'bagging'.

Take a walk along the Great Glen Cycle Track, accessible on foot direct from our garden, and see beautiful views across Loch Oich and along the Great Glen, lots of wildlife and in late spring the foxgloves and rhododendrons are magnificent.
