This is a beautiful property in an ideal location for day trips if you have a vehicle. As a family of four, we had plenty of space to spread out. The well-equipped kitchen made meal preparation and dinners easy. The hot tub was a wonderful place to relax after our full days of exploring the stunning Scottish countryside.

We arrived after a 9 hour drive to the air bnb and were greeted with the house being super homely! Great garden and surrounding walks. All rooms were well equipped with everything they needed and we were left biscuits and coffee to enjoy throughout our stay. We particularly enjoyed the hot tub and large lounge. We will definitely be back again! Thank you! Had a great stay! Perfect for children and large families!

We all immediately felt relaxed upon walking through the door. The place just has a cozy feel. Would recommend to anyone that's looking to decompress and just hang out. You must go to Puck's Glen though, which will be more than enough exercise for your stay.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Sep 2021
The stay was fine until we got accused of taking a dog which had passed away before we went on holiday. Even after sending proof to the owner we still have been accused and fined because the owner found dog hairs in the kitchen of the property, this was from their dog! It was lovely to be able to pet a dog and feed it sausages from the bbq considering the circumstances. All in all this whole experience was ruined by having to prove the family dog was dead! Sad times!
