The home was very clean and it was lovely to walk around the property. Our husbands played golf in Inverness and my daughter and myself toured the area.
What an amazing place to stay! Comfortable, rustic and quiet. Had a very nice stay, and absolutely fell in love with the screened in porch. Watched hummingbirds and songbirds fly around all day! Amazing!

Yes! I love watching the birds there. Adding a little more to the garden every year brings even more…please come again!
We had a wonderful stay on the farmhouse property. The owners were helpful and easy to get in touch with and check in was very easy. The kitchen was spacious and well appointed for cooking meals. We thoroughly enjoyed the screened in porch, fire pit, and the beautiful and tranquil property.
A perfect winter getaway. Our. host was a great communicator and very attentive. We loved the wood stove and the place was well equipped. We went on some hikes. Lots of trails in the area. We look forward to coming back in the summer. Highly recommend.
Our stay at Kintyre Farm was amazing. It was the perfect spot for our family to stay. The wood stove made it extra cozy, but it also had all the modern amenities. The dogs loved running in the yard as well. We'll be back!
We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful old farmhouse. Our dog enjoyed running in the open fields and we investigated the trails through the property. Our day trips included hiking trails and beautiful beaches nearby. The property host was very easy to contact and responded quickly. If you are looking for a quiet, beautiful setting in the country, this is for you.
I enjoyed my stay very much but my snobby travel friend , went home after 2 nights of a week trip. After she left I was able to enjoy the peace and quiet of the area. I would definitely stay here again.

Oh my! Well, we were so happy to host you, Ronald!
Excellent rustic farm house. Beautiful screened in room that got lots of use for our 8 ladies getaway. The completion of the second bathroom was wonderful and the house was well equipped. It was great to have the quiet peaceful place to ourselves but it was also close enough to stores and beaches to be convenient.
A beautiful old home that was well stocked and very comfortable. It is a work in progress but that doesn't detract from the wonderful feeling of being in your own little world but still close to amenities. We loved it!
Amazing property. We had an excellent time exploring the property and the local area. A clean and comfortable home that was perfect for our group of 7. My teenagers loved exploring the property and we all enjoyed sitting out on the screened in porch. A truly perfect week at Kintyre farm. Host was very responsive. Thank you for a wonderful week Laura.
What an amazing property - a very unique house with lots of charm. The host was extremely responsive and very helpful when we ran into an issue with a flat tire, delaying our departure. Thoroughly recommend.
Great place to stay!!! Loved the place and the property. Had everything you need for our family gathering. Loved the screened in deck and hammock. Highly recommend!!
Jolie maison de ferme sur vaste terrain tranquille et isolé. Confortable pour famille. Cachet unique. Notre hôte nous a accommodé avec un chargeur pour notre véhicule électrique. Merci Laura.
