    This little beauty was the *perfect* space for some deep inner work and reflection in Scotland! The property was well stocked. The space so homey and it wrapped us up and took care of body, mind and spirit!

    The property was amazing very cozy the conservatory was nice place to relax after a long day. It wasnt far from anything we had wanted. We felt bad about leaving some bottles in a box cause we didnt see a recycling bin for them. Until when we were leaving we had saw to leave at a plant which we had no idea where and no time to take. But other than that would recommend to anybody for a getaway 10/10.

    The cottage exceeded our expectations. The information we got and how we entered the cottage was easy. Very good communication with the owners.The facilities in the cottage was more than we had anticipated. Everything was accounted for so the comfort level was very high. Very beautiful surroundings and clean. If we go back on holidays in Scotland, we will definitely come back to Westlodge Cottage.

    The house offers everything you need for a perfect holiday. It is in a quiet location, has a beautiful garden, is very well equipped and was very clean. The kitchen facilities also left nothing to be desired.We particularly enjoyed the conservatory. It was always pleasantly warm here and the view of the garden is simply fantastic.As we were travelling in an electric car, we were also very pleased to be able to charge the car on the property.

    This place was such a spectacular find. We used it as our base for traveling through the highlands and it was perfect. Amazingly well-stocked kitchen and such cool wildlife on the property!We saw the elusive pine marten while having a glass of wine in the sun room one evening and were so excited (didn't get a photo unfortunately)!With it being in a remote area, there are also quite a lot of spiders, which was hard for the arachnophobe in the group, so make sure if you stay to keep windows closed or only open the ones with screens, even for a minute.Highly recommend!
