    Lovely secluded wee house, fully equipped for a couple of days off the grid. Owners wee touches fresh milk n wee pkt of biscuits was a lovely touch. The B n B host / dogs were very friendly/helpful absolutely loved the 4 days there n settling in at night with the log/ coal fire was an added bonus ( too cold for the hot tub for us) Hopefully be back in the summer to enjoy this wee hidden gem vx

    Lovely location and stay with great character. Had a love/hate relationship with the creaking. Lol. Mostly love though; cute character. Internet good enough to work/conferences; minimal disturbance.
