Part of us has been left behind in this beautiful part of the world...Rock House, Loch Tay is a piece of heaven on Earth that has stolen a little piece of our souls to stay behind forever in its green and stunning land...From the moment we landed in Scotland we were warmed by its friendly people and awesome landscape - even more so when we arrived at Rock House and were met by the charming Roland...and later that evening by the lovely Penny. We felt like family and were treated as such...Our bedroom was clean, bright and fresh and the comfy bed made with crisp white cotton sheets and piled with sumptuous pillows and cushions...We could lay on the bed feeling totally cossested drinking tea,nibbling on the delicious biscuits (not, thankfully, custard creams or rich tea) and later in the evening sipping wine and crunching on the Kettle crisps and chocolate (also provided - great touch!!)...Breakfast was a long and delicious affair...everything (bar the milk, coffee, tea and butter) made by Penny's fair hand.. From the intensely fruity selection of homemade jams and marmalades slathered thickly on homemade bread, to the creamy yoghurt poured over handpicked blueberries and sprinkled with cinnamon crunch (again Penny's own recipe) to the mother of all breakfast grand finale's - the cooked breakfast! Exquisite and cooked to exact specification - even, much to Penny's chagrin, having to purposefully overcook eggs to meet the strange taste's of my parter Mike (well his is American!!). And all this calorific cosseting whilst watching the moods of Loch Tay from the huge windows, or looking enviously at all the lovely pieces of Art and bits and bobs that are in abundance at Rock House... Ideal Home should do an article on these talented people and they definately should be on the telly! Penny is Scotland's answer to Nigella Lawson and Roland...well words fail but he even lent us a camera as we could not find ours!! I could eulogise about Rock House and its lovely inhabitants (including Alfie the sweetest Norwich Terrier ever) for hours but the best thing is to go up to Rock House and find out for yourself...beware though, you might not want to leave...We will be booking again for sure...(ps ignore your sat nav - heed the Rock House directions, or you could end up like a white stretch limo we came across on a one track hairpin bend: completely wedged and immovable). Sarah and Mike
