We had a great trip last week. The cottage was remote enough to allow us a relaxing time but also not far from some lovely places. We enjoyed the hot tub every day and the upgrades to the house were lovely!

We loved staying at Little Arches. Mrs M made it so simple, from checking in, to being available on the phone. the property is superb and fitted to the highest standards. Beautifully decorated throughout, new underfloor heating, superb interior design, really elegant. For us we used this as a base for visiting family in central Glasgow, about half an hour away, but loved coming back each day to Little Arches. It might be a bit remote for some, but we loved it as we live rurally in West Dorset. Follow your SatNav or maps in your phone and you can’t go wrong. We will be hopefully booking with Mrs M next year too. Thank you to a lovely lady who gets what holidaymakers need while away. Home from home amenities, so clean. If I could give the whole experience a higher rating I would.

Beautiful wee cottage in a great location. The boiler went down on the second night but the owners couldn’t do enough. Will definitely be back!
