    An ideal location for exploring the Highlands. We had everything we needed thank you.

    The start of our first week was blighted by the arrival of builders at 0800 to start work on the cabin that is being built right next to the cottage in the grounds. The same thing happened the next day, whereupon I had to ask them to stop using the nail gun. Day 3 I had to ring Sykes customer service to request building work to be stopped. Response from owner was for builders to work in the afternoons. Not acceptable! Long story short had to negotiate with the builder who was really polite and courteous, that they would work one more day and then stop. Really disappointed that no one seemed to think that this was issue and that we were even put in this position.

    A lovely little cottage that was surprisingly spacious inside, clean, tidy and comfortable and ideally situated for anyone wanting to day trip around the central Highlands, the owners were very hospitable also, i would highly recommend rowan bank cottage and would have no hesitation in going there again
