This is a very well presented, clean, and well equipped cottage for two people. The views across the bay and beyond are stunning. The host is also very welcoming and helpful. My wife and I had a great holiday, and would look forward to visiting in the future.

The cottage is in a good location with wonderful views. Gairloch itself has shops , cafés, beaches and walks. The cottage was clean and had a good shower, bed was quite comfortable. It did have everything we needed and it was good to have a porch to hang up coats and put shoes etc. The heating was what let it down as its storage heaters sometimes gave out heat but not consistently or when we necessarily needed it in the evening.The host was friendly enough and got the hot water sorted for us as it wasn't working. It just wasn't as good as other places we have stayed in for similar cost.
