We had a lovely week in a warm , extremely comfy cottage . It had everything we could have needed . The bedrooms ( 3) were spacious and beds very comfortable. There was plenty of space for us , 4 adults and 2 children . The highland cows , ‘ the girls’ , in the girlf next door were an added bonus . All in all a great experience.

A fabulous cottage, very clean inside. I appreciate this cottage is booked out constantly. This would explain why the outside looks a little tired, flaking paint etc. The owners will only be able to upgrade at the end of season - and winter isn't great for external painting! Copious amounts of hot water, great water pressure, very warm and comfortable inside. Close to all amenities. Perfectly placed to explore the local area. Met many locals and they were all very welcoming. Can't wait to return in the Spring.

We had a wonderful stay! Seeing the Highland cows in the field outside was such a lovely surprise. The property was incredibly comfortable and warm, with excellent kitchen amenities, powerful showers, and super comfy beds. The area is peaceful and quiet, yet local shops, pubs, and amenities are just a five-minute drive away. We would happily return and highly recommend it.
