Customer Reviews of Ben Loyal View Cottage near Tongue - Sleeps 6
The house was of the highest standard and every effort had been made by the owners to cater for your every need. The views from the property are superb and are forever changing, we have stayed in many holiday homes and this, we think, is the best we have found.

It was a very, very nice cottage, it was warm and the heating was easy to regulate. It was in a lovely situation with great views! It was spacious and very pleasant to be in. Don't know what the tourist board rating is but it should be high.

Tongue House / House of Tongue
Built in 1678, it is the Scottish home of the Countess of Sutherland. Formerly the seat of the Clan Mackay, the house sits on the site of the clan's previous home. It is said to have been burned by Cromwell's army in 1656, while pursuing the Chief of Mackay. It was rebuilt by the Mackays several years later. But in 1829, Tongue House and the majority of the Mackay Estate had to be sold to pay off debts owing to the Sutherland family.
