Guests say
Little Arches is a charming, peaceful cottage in a rural setting, ideal for a relaxing break or exploring the surrounding Scottish countryside. Guests consistently praise the cosy atmosphere, dog-friendly features, and the inviting hot tub. The property is well-equipped and tastefully decorated, with friendly and helpful owners. While a few minor maintenance issues and the occasional odour were mentioned, the overall experience is overwhelmingly positive, with many guests eager to return. The cottage offers a tranquil retreat with beautiful views and easy access to local walks and attractions.
Most guests found the cottage clean and well-presented, with fresh bedding and towels. A few noted minor issues such as marks on glass doors and an occasional odour, but these did not detract significantly from their stay.
The rural location is highly praised for its peace, quiet, and scenic views. Guests enjoyed the proximity to nature parks and local attractions, though a car is recommended for convenience.
The cottage is described as cosy, comfortable, and restful, with thoughtful touches for dog owners. Some guests mentioned a firm bed and suggested a larger TV, but overall comfort levels were high.
Facilities such as the hot tub, garden, and kitchen are well-received. Some minor maintenance issues (e.g., flooring, water pressure, microwave) and requests for extra kitchenware were noted, but did not majorly impact enjoyment.
Guests appreciated the friendly and helpful owners and dog-friendly amenities. However, several mentioned the absence of a welcome pack or small gifts; while some guests left items for future visitors, such gestures are not guaranteed.

The cottage is absolutely perfect for a stress free, dog friendly stay. It is beautifully decorated with really lovely features that make it a restful place to stay. The large arched window is amazing to sit and have breakfast in, watching the workings of the farm. It is located in a quiet, rural area with a beautiful little village nearby which is great for a walk around. Everything has been planned with dogs in mind, from the clean gravel garden, to the wooden flooring and the throw for the sofa. Really lovely little cottage in an amazing area, we (couple and 2 dogs) had an absolutely amazing stay and will miss watching the stars from the hot tub at night! Incredible place and we would love to stay again!
