Stunning location, very peaceful, only birds, waterfall and wind in the trees to disturb you. Cottage very well equipped and spotless. Friendly greeting on arrival by the owners. Lots of wildlife to see. The weather was amazing all week, so we only lit the wood stove once. The single track road made sure you couldn't rush but added to the sense of being away from it all..

Confortable mais très isolé
Confortable mais très isolé
Si vous aimez les endroits retirés, ce gite est fait pour vous! Il est situé sur une très petite, longue et très lente route à voie unique mais double sens (single track road with passing places), de ce fait assez éloigné en temps de trajet notamment du Loch Lomond. Il est plus confortable qu'il n'y parait de prime abord, l'équipement est parfois un peu vieillot mais tout fonctionne finalement bien. L'alimentation en eau se fait par une source, donc l'eau courante est propre à la consommation, mais jaune et présente un gout particulier et prononcé. Ceci peut nécessiter l'utilisation d'au minérale pour ceux que cela dérangerait (comme nous) Un grand merci à notre hôte pour sa gentillesse et son accueil chaleureux! (je précise tout de même que le site abritel ne fournit pas son numéro de téléphone mais le numéro de sykes cottage, qui ne répond qu'aux heures ouvrables, ce qui est bien regrettable en cas d'imprévus comme ce fut le cas pour moi)
