We had a lovely stay at the property, which was very clean and very well equipped. Lots of books and games to play as well as the weather wasn't the best. I would definitely recommend the property and would return again.

A Scottish Gem

This was the only place we stayed for three nights out of our 14 nights in Scotland, and we couldn’t have chosen a more perfect spot! The accommodations were perfect for us and so warm and homey. We loved the serenity of the surroundings. If we could’ve stayed longer, there’s no doubt we would’ve in a heart beat! Thank you for hosting us!

Lovely cottage. Communication with property management sorely lacking

We really enjoyed our 3 night stay. Would suggest a coffee maker be added. You had baking supplies, but no coffee maker. Most coffee shops in the area didn’t open until 10 am. Communication was awful. We would get automatic generic responses and most often not hear back. When we asked specific questions, the responses, when we got them, were curt and defensive.
