Caretakers for the property were very pleasant and left flowers and snacks to make the place homey! The property itself was cleaned well and comfortable. However, the cottage itself is in need of some maintenance and updates and there was also a strong odor in the main living space.

The bathroom was not cleaned and you could see the dirt of the former guests, especially in the toilet. It was disgusting.All was just grubby. We wanted to stay one week, but we had left the accommodation after 4 days as we did not want to stay there longer. We had been asked, if everything would be ok and I told him about the toilet at least. The answer was that the cleaning lady did not turn up and he had to do it by himself in a rush. This is definitely not an excuse, sorry but his ruined our first days in Scotland.
