    Well stocked and furnished . Extremely clean and easy to see why its popular . The only issue I had was it was like living in somebody's show house . However thats personal subjective opinion and it is a great cottage .

    When we first stepped into the house, it felt like coming home. We had a very nice time in Scotland. A very special thanks to the Host for the lovely decorations and the great welcome basket :-).
