Tarandoun is a beautiful cottage. It is in a fantastic location with wonderful views of the Clyde. The cottage is well equipped, including good quality bedding, towels and mats (even flannels are provided).The owners are very helpful and friendly and have the most adorable spaniel dog who loves to play fetch with his ball. A wonderful place to stay.
