Where is this place anyway?

Clan Texas Conroe, Texas, USA
Review Submitted: November 13, 2008 Date of Stay: October 2008
Lovely house with all the amenities, except showers. Regardless of what the description says, there is only one stand-alone shower. The roll top tubs are nice but only one has a hand shower. The house is very, very remote. It is a 5 mile drive through the woods on a one lane, winding road from the closest village. The closest town with any services is 10-15 miles away.
The best thing about the house is the kitchen. It is very well equipped and has two American style refrigerators. Also, the beds are super comfortable. House was very clean and well-maintained. One serious drawback to the house is the water supply. It comes from the loch/river and there are no signs anywhere in the house stating that and whether it's safe to drink. It had rained for days when we were there and the water was brown from the tannins. We did not drink it and it was very unpleasant to bathe in. There should be instructions regarding the water. Also, there are stairs everywhere and it's not suitable for the infirm as stated. No bedroom or bath can be reached without going up a few steps.
It's a great house for a large family and for getting away from it all, but take your food with you and be ready to cook. There are no resturants anywhere close. Location was good for taking the back roads to tourist spots, without having to go back through Inverness. There were 11 of us in our group, including seniors, couples, teenagers and younger children. Everyone loved the house once we got to it.
Oh! one more thing. Please put up a "Mind your Head!" sign on the low doorway in the front hallway.
I think my 6' 4" son-in-law will have a permanent indentation in his forehead.
Overall, we enjoyed our stay. The living room was very comfortable and cozy with a fire burning. It was a quiet, peaceful setting.
