Charlotte is a very caring person. She made us delicious and filling meals. She is great to chat with and learn from. The accommodation is clean, spacious, and really comfortable. Drumnadrochit is in a beautiful area surrounded by trees and rolling hills. It has great hiking trails. It is a fun touristy town with greats pubs and an awesome fish and chips place. There are also a nearby hostel and bnb where you can meet other volunteers. Inverness is close by and Charlotte will happily give you a ride there when she is going into town. Overal,l it was truly an amazing experience.

My experience in the guest house was truly wonderful. From day one, I felt welcomed and surrounded by peace and nature. I discovered a beautiful, charming village and had the chance to enjoy, learn, and grow throughout my stay. Charlotte made everything even more special. She was kind, supportive, and always attentive—offering fun plans, lovely outings, and constant help with anything I needed. Her warmth made me feel completely at home. I leave with great memories, valuable lessons, and deep gratitude. I highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for something meaningful and authentic.

My experience at the guest house was wonderful. The tasks were very straight forward, Charlotte was very communicative and the other volunteers were absolutely lovely. Drumnadrochit is a great place to connect with nature and accessible to Inverness.

I had an incredible stay at the guest house. The surroundings are beautiful, for me getting to know the Highlands was a dream come true, there are still so many places I want to explore, so I hope to come back soon. Charlotte is a great host, sharp as a tack and a fantastic cook too. I learn a lot from her and Dick about Whiskey, Scotland, and life. the work is exactly as described in her profile, so what to expect? I recommend always reading carefully. If you think it suits you and what you're looking for, you'll have a wonderful stay. Thank you again Charlotte <3 hope to see you soon

Charlotte & Dick arranged days out, dinners in town, whiskey tastings and incredible local knowledge and often surprised us with treats, we felt cared for and happy throughout our stay Any questions, feel free to ask :) Thanks again Charlotte !
