A perfect stay at the most beautiful cottage. One of the best places weve experienced - a true haven in the highlands. Clean, cosy, modern, well equipped and set in a peaceful location surrounded by woodland (but not too far from amenities and tourist spots). We loved it and hope to come back.

The cottage was exceptionally clean, tidy and well equipped - a rarity these days! The furniture and beds were very comfortable. Our dogs settled in very quickly and loved looking out of the full length windows, they were occupied for hours! A beautiful comfortable cottage to return to after a busy day visiting family and sightseeing.
