Scotland 2022
We stayed at this lovely cottage for 13 days and have made new friends! Linda was an absolute gem of a hostess. Issues with our phone plan and she worked it out so we could communicate with her at any time. The basics were stocked in the cottage and the place was perfect for the 2 of us. The neighbours (of the canine persuasion) were the friendliest and most welcoming each evening as we returned from our forays into your lovely country. It was our first trip to Scotland and we were able to explore easily with help and guidance from Linda regarding train and bus schedules, as well as wonderful advice on what not to miss seeing while in Scotland. We were treated to lovely and tasty desserts on several evenings and well as supper the last night as we were attempting to empty out the fridge of leftovers!! Linda went above and beyond and we hope to meet up again in the future! The cottage is a bit off of the beaten track but the ambiance and scenery make up for that in spades!!! Thanks you Linda!

Secluded spot
Heating system was fixed midway through stay during wintry conditions. Far too many scent plugs in rooms. Long road access has deep potholes. Property manager attentive & offered a refund if we wished to go somewhere else.

Stunning
Absolutely brilliant from check in, to the understanding shown to enable me to have a later checkout time. Lovely, picturesque, spotlessly clean and comfy. I don’t know what else that I could possibly say!
