Confirmed Guest
A very beautiful house. Extremely spacious lounge areas and triple bedroom stunning although open to the kitchen below. Kitchen equipment is a bit thin, no potato masher for example and a frying pan that does not work on the induction hob. Otherwise a great place to stay and very convenient for exploring the southern half of the Kintrye penannular

Happy wanderers
We stayed here over Christmas, overall a very comfortable house. An absolutely perfect location if you really want peace & quiet. The oil heating was much needed and appreciated, as was the log burner, made for some lovely cosy evenings. The sky TV with so many channels was great. On the whole the kitchen was reasonably well equipped, although a potato masher /ricer and some small cereal bowls would be a good addition. We will not hesitate to return.
