Lovely property, would definitely recommend to friends and would come again.

The property was fantastic for a large family. The kitchen was well catered for a large group. Great dinning room. Walled garden was fabulous.

Sad the wood burner in kitchen was not working.

We will be back for sure!

Lots of space for extended family and good enclosed garden. Kitchen well equipped!

Stair gate option may be helpful for young kids as one set of stairs are quite steep - not a complaint, just a suggestion. Certainly wouldn’t stop us coming back again!

Beautiful house in an idyllic setting!

We adored this house and our stay! The weather was questionable but it didn’t matter as the house was warm and spacious so we had a fabulous time anyway! The enclosed garden was beautiful and meant that our wee boy could run about safely! The kids toys were a massive bonus and greatly appreciated! We would recommend this property to any large groups and are hoping to return this year!

There was meant to be a high chair but we couldn’t find it, it wasn’t a problem!

Outstanding property for a family get together

We loved absolutely everything. Everything we needed and more, everything you can think of is catered for. Met the cleaners on site as we arrived slightly early, they were lovely, very friendly and the house was immaculate. Plenty games of rounders, hot tub to relax in and a pool table. We didn’t want to leave and wanted to book an extra couple of nights but work commitments took over. The best house for a family get together.

Nothing, it was all amazing.

Idealic family holiday

A lovely farmhouse in quiet area. Th house is big enough for a large family and we had a very comfortable stay.

It would benefit from a coffee machine, more chopping boards and more cutlery.

Family get together

Large property perfect for a family get to get her with kids. Ground floor room with en-suite was handy for older relative. The kitchen/lounge was a good space for cooking and chatting while the pool room kept the kids entertained. The garden was lovely and safe for the dogs and kids to play. Close to amenities but away from the main road. Plenty of towels available and everything essential in the property. The hot tub was nice although we got the normal Scottish weather. Liked that it had a separate laundry and boot room which helped keep the house tidy. Close enough to lovely beaches and not far from BettyHill and nice places to visit. The house is very large and had plenty space.

The wifi wasn’t working but we had been made aware of this before the visit by the owners so wasn’t a massive issue for the adults anyway.

Great family weekend away. The house is stunning lovely location. The hosts were very fast at responding. Very clean and

We loved the location, how clean everything was. The house is perfect for a large family get away. We all loved the hot tub. Would book again.

House pretty much has everything you need only tiny thing would be there was no oven gloves but not a big deal at all.

Perfect base to explore the tip of Scotland from. Very comfortable after a days exploring

Easy to get into town. Close to main road, but set far enough back that there is zero noise. Extremely safe for kids to go out to play. Decor was beautiful. Boot room a great help. Pool room kept adults & kids entertained for hours. Loved everything. Appreciated ground floor room and en-suite.

Nothing… place was perfect for a large family.

Mooi en ruim huis dichtbij de ferry naar de Orkney Islands.

Zeer ruim huis met alle mogelijke faciliteiten om te koken en je te ontspannen. De pooltafel en de jacuzzi (die warm stond voor ons) waren en leuke extra.
