Absolutely amazing cottage!
It's clean, tidy, warm, neat and in full working order. But also has terrific kit! All those little details I always forget, USB charger and washing tabs for example, and really cool sound system with tablet and music collection are provided. Great choice, DJ!
There is a lot of thoughtful detail, my favourite being labelled light switches. Sorry, no, my favourite was the email from the owners on the day before departure letting us know not to hurry in the morning as the cleaner wasn't due until afternoon. How considerate - THANK YOU so much!
Needless to say the garden is amazing with the river running past the bottom fence. The area is very central for lots of good and bad weather activities and really easy to get to. Highlands for a quick visit, first time holiday or in fact for everyone. Just love it!
