Fantastic, cosy apartment in a great location. Very clean and comfortable and furnished to a high standard. We are a family of five, with three small children, and the apartment was a perfect size for us. It's in a great location just minutes from the beach, in a little private courtyard. Owner was very helpful and left some nice touches for us like a welcome pack and tips on things to do. Would definitely recommend.
Really nice apartment, beautifully decorated and had everything we needed. We really enjoyed our trip and were sad to leave. Ardross farm shop was great for supplies and treats.
We had a lovely time in North Stables. Very clean and well equipped. Beds were very comfortable too. Great to be so close to the beach. Outside area is nondescript but doesn’t really matter as its a minute walk to the beach. Lovely
