What a gem of a location and property. The host Ann was amazingly helpful and a delight. We had everything you could possibly need, Ann has equipped the property very well. We really enjoyed our hamper. Thank you, Ann. The location is very handy for many attractions. We recommend visiting Applecross it has the most breathtaking views, but you'll need your walking boots to venture up some of those hills. We will definitely visit again. A huge thank you AnnBest wishes, Sal & Ash. 🙏🏽💎
