Guests that stayed at this property said
Reviewers frequently commend the property for its exceptional cleanliness, with multiple guests highlighting the spotless condition upon arrival. The provision of nice bath towels and toiletries also contributed to the high cleanliness standards experienced by guests.
The property's location in the Northern Highlands is celebrated for its beautiful scenery and proximity to walks, beaches, and local shops. However, some guests were disappointed by the closure of nearby hotels and the distance to alternative dining options, slightly impacting the location score.
Comfort is a strong point for this property, with guests finding the beds very comfortable and the house warm and welcoming. The spaciousness and the conservatory are particularly appreciated for relaxation. A few guests suggested improvements regarding lighting and boiler noise, but these were minor compared to the overall comfort enjoyed.
The property is well-equipped, with a modern kitchen and excellent bathrooms. Guests appreciated the generous provision of appliances and the enclosed garden. Some feedback mentioned a lack of cleaning supplies and minor maintenance issues, but these did not significantly detract from the overall positive experience with the facilities.
The thoughtfulness of the hosts is evident in the welcome pack and the provision of various amenities. Guests felt well-cared for and valued the extra touches. It should be noted that while gifts and welcome packs are mentioned, their inclusion is a gracious gesture by the hosts and may not be guaranteed for every stay.

Lynne
Extremely clean and well decorated. Comfortable beds and sofas. A really useful welcome pack of the essentials which was greatly appreciated after a very long drive. We had the best holiday we've had for years. We really didn't want to leave. All the local people we met where so friendly and the village shop is very well stocked. We rarely go to the same place twice but we're already discussing when we could go back. Highly recommended
