We enjoyed a fantastic week at Emerald Cottage. Always love visiting this part of Scotland and it was great finding this fab cottage. Spacious, relaxing and very comfortable with fantastic sea views from both the upstairs bedrooms and out the patio doors in the lounge to the garden. Added bonus for us was the bike store and dog friendly - we will definitely be rebooking!
