We only stayed for one night before catching ferry to Orkney and couldn’t fault it for that, if staying longer think the small bathroom may not have been adequate for 2 people!

Wakker worden met uitzicht op bos. wayne is een super vriendelijke host. Hij beantwoord vragen direct, heeft leuke tips en advies voor trips in omgeving. Ideale tussenstop als je de NC500 rijdt. Maar eigenlijk jammer dat we niet langer dan 1 nacht konden blijven. Bedden lagen heerlijk, fijn beddengoed, textiel etc. Het is ontzettend schoon. We verbeleven hier met 3 personen. Meer dan voldoende ruimte. In keuken alles aanwezig. Wifi uitstekend. We raden deze cottage aan om te boeken. Als je tijd hebt dan zou ik meer dan 1 nacht boeken. In de omgeving is nl erg veel te doen. OH ja, ook nog mooie zitjes buiten met uitzicht op veld en bossen

Wonderful customer service.

Very clean on arrival, just off the NC500 but not noisy. All amenities needed were provided. Service from Wayne was excellent, he introduced himself and gave recommendations and when we had need of some oven gloves, he gave us his pair and immediately ordered more to stock up. Had a slight issue with a shower tap which he got fixed the day after we left, and even text us to let us know he had fixed it. You won't find someone happier to make sure your stay is wonderful. Would certainly book again. Beds were comfy, setting was tranquil. Thanks again.
