We had an absolutely fantastic time at this cottage and couldn't recommend it more.
The hosts were incredibly warm and welcoming. Their hospitality made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. They were always available to offer recommendations and assistance, making our stay even more enjoyable.
One of the highlights was the convenience of being able to reach the sea, a charming pub, and a supermarket all within a pleasant 30-minute walk.
An additional highlight was the stunning garden encircling the property, such that the kids and the dog had a lot of fun.
A big thank you to the hosts for providing such a memorable experience!
Unfortunately some of the mattresses were uncomfortable. I did find the owner coming into the garden twice during our 10 day stay mowing the lawns a little intrusive. However he was really speedy. They went out of their way to provide board games when we asked and also suggested some places to eat when we enquired. There were no brochures with local things to see and do and local shops or places to visit which would have been useful. Perhaps these were removed due to COVID. I would definitely go back again as the location was super.
Such a beautiful property, we had rented both cottages together for the week.
Only a short walk to the seaside town of Whitehills. The service from Tracey and Ramsey was phenomenal, recommended to all friends and family
Outstanding 2 adjacent cottages that gave us the space required for our family holiday. Absolutely can’t fault anything, wonderful welcome pack in both cottages, huge garden for Rory our working cocker spaniel to run around. Garden toys provided for our granddaughter to play with. Ramsay and Tracey were exceptionally helpful, thank you for making our stay special. We will be back.
