We had a lovely stay in this clean and well equipped cottage. Location was great, with just a ten minute walk to the local shop and nearest bar/ restaurant.Bed was comfortable with good quality bed linen. Plenty of hot water, though we didn't quite get to grips with the heating controls.Nice view of the hills from the rear of the property and we could see the top of Holy Isle from the upstairs bedroom window.
