Caol 2.8 miles. Maybank in Muirshearlich, Scottish Highlands, is the ultimate, secluded retreat perfect for couples, families or friends. This single-storey, detached holiday home lies on the banks of the Caledonian Canal, with views over to the Ben Nevis and Aonach Mor Ski Ranges and a wealth of home comforts for a self-catering break. Drive through one of the most scenic areas in the country, before arriving at Maybank to the private, off-road parking. Step inside and enjoy a cup of tea in the conservatory while taking in the views. From here, unpack your bags in one of the four bedrooms, with a mixture of doubles and twins suitable for a variety of party types; the king-size bedroom also has a handy en-suite shower room for extra privacy, while the remaining three bedrooms are serviced by the family shower room. When appetites appear, make use of the kitchen to rustle up your home-cooked meals, which can be enjoyed at the breakfast bar casually or in the dining room for a more formal affair. After dinner, spend some time in the large garden while your furry friends stretch their legs on the lawn. Finish off your night with a film in front of the open fire in the sitting room, before catching your rest.
