Stunning accommodation with plenty of room and all the utilities you need. Perfect location for sight seeing. Lots of hidden gems around the area (especially loved the cliffs and sea at Nybster Broch). Need to come again to finish exploring.

What a brilliant house to base yourself.
What a brilliant house to base yourself. The house was so lovely, spacious well equipped. We enjoyed going out for drives and coming back to this lovely house. We definitely would go again.
A wonderful cottage in a beautiful part of Scotland.
A wonderful cottage in a beautiful part of Scotland.The property is a good size with a lovely large window in the living room with views over the sea and of Keiss Castle. We were luck enough to see some glorious sunsets, a Super Blue Blood Moon(!) and plenty of local wildlife like seals and otters from the comfort of the sofa in the evenings.The facilities were good - a large kitchen table for dining and all the usual mod-cons for a comfortable stay and, unexpectedly, even a fast internet connection, so the teenagers didn't go without Netflix!Location-wise there's a lovely pub right next door with a great restaurant (fresh catch from the sea on the specials board each night) and a supermarket and other shopping facilities within a 15 minute drive.There are some lovely walks up and down the coast and a beach that, when the weather was right, wouldn't have looked out of place in the Caribbean. Absolutely loved every minute of our stay, would highly recommend it!
