I wanted to let others know just in case. Iâm sure it will be fine after a month or two but if you suffer badly from strong smells, allergies, asthma etcâ¦I do not recommend this property. Itâs a health hazard. We booked a week and were so disappointed, it took we OVER a week to get a refund.

Very well kept and clean! We traveled from Plymouth so the fresh home baked bread was a lovely sight to see and smell after such a long journey! Well stocked with everyday essentials such as jam,butter,milk ect. Hilary was a lovely host and informed us of some lovely places to visit and where to go to eat. Will definitely use again next time we visit Scotland!

The only small improvements we would make would be more comfortable chairs instead of benches at the dining table and more comfortable easy chairs in the sitting area. However the cottage was very tastefully decorated with lots of local information which we really appreciated. Another small point - the hot and cold taps in the kitchen have been plumbed in the wrong way round, which meant I was wasting water until I realised! We appreciated having a dishwasher, washing machine and tumble drier. The bed was lovely and comfortable and everywhere was very clean.
