We’re Esther and Nick - the hearts behind Beside the Loch. A couple of years ago, we swapped the busy streets of Brighton for the wild beauty of the Scottish Highlands, chasing a dream that had been with us for over 15 years. Fast forward to now, and here we are - living our dream in Onich. At Beside the Loch, you’ll find cabins and cottages designed for slowing down, reconnecting with nature, and diving into adventure. We live on site with our two boys, Hamish and Fraser, so you’ll often see us out running/biking trails, swimming in the loch, or pointing guests to our favourite hidden gems. We’ll even take you wild swimming, trail running, or to a hidden waterfall or two. Think of us as your friendly hosts - here to make sure your time Beside the Loch feels a little bit like heaven. With love, Nick, Esther, Hamish & Fraser x
