The heating was programmed to come on a few times each day which made it warm and cosy. I judge a property by the comfort of the beds and these were exceptional with luxurious bedding and towels. There is plenty of storage space for clothes in both bedrooms. I think a mirror in each bedroom would be an asset as the only one in the property is in the bathroom. The kitchen is well equipped with crockery and cutlery. I'm used to cooking by gas and because there weren't any instructions I couldn't figure out how to use the oven and grill but one quick phone call resulted in the owner coming round and explaining it to me. He also fixed the washing line which had snapped. There's a washing machine, dishwasher and fridge with 3 drawer freezer. The shower is large and powerful. It seemed strange to have bare floors everywhere, even on the stairs, and the noise it created took some getting used to but I understand that the property can be kept clean far easier without the presence of carpets. All in all we had a wonderful time in the Scottish Highlands and it was always lovely to return to this cottage.

Il est spacieux, confortable et propre. Il est également bien situé, à moins d'une heure de plusieurs sites ( Loch Ness, plusieurs châteaux, Fort de Saint Georges, Culloden, Chanonry point ( pour voir les dauphins)...)

Very well equipped and spotlessly clean, large garden is an added bonus. Owners are extremely helpful and responded instantly to a query. One Wester is in a great location for visiting many interesting places in the Highlands and it was amazing to see red kites directly from the house and garden.
