The perfect holiday retreat with stunning views of the countryside. The Bothy was comfortable, well equipped and beautifully presented. The welcome basket of local produce and the Christmas tree were welcome additional touches. The facilities on site were great with a well equipped gym and endless walks across the farm estate and beyond. Everything we could have asked for- peaceful, relaxing and comfortable. We will definitely return!
