The property's location is appreciated for its tranquillity and open views over the countryside. Its proximity to Elgin and easy access to the A96 are noted as convenient, although one guest mentioned difficulty with driveway access due to parking.
While the property is generally found to be comfortable, there are a few remarks about the mattresses and sofas not suiting all guests. However, the spaciousness and the outdoor patio are highlighted as positive aspects of comfort.
The cottage is well-equipped, particularly the kitchen, and the presence of two bathrooms is seen as a bonus. Some guests suggested the addition of shelves for toiletries and minor maintenance to freshen up rooms.
The welcome bottle of wine is frequently mentioned and appreciated, indicating thoughtfulness on the part of the owner. However, it should be noted that such gifts are a kind gesture and not guaranteed with every stay.
