    Tigh Na Sith met our group's needs extremely well. Warm, clean, spacious with high quality specifications throughout. Yes, we all hit our head on the low slung cooker extractor hood and you have a blocked conservatiory gutter and you could do with a new outdoor hose! However, these are tiny issues - we had a great time in what is a lovely comfortable house in a great location.

    I'm scottish and have been around that area a few times. As for my guests they are from Essex and we're totally mesmerised with spectacular views and scenery. We all had a lovely time even though it rained and was breezy for a good few days. Not a bad thing kept the midges and horse flies at bay lol. They are all speaking about doing it again next year . The accommodation was perfect for our needs with 8 of us. For a great holiday experience I can highly recommend Tigh Na Sith.

    From the moment we arrived (the fresh bread, eggs & milk were gratefully received) to the morning we left, this well-equipped cottaged provided everything we needed and more! Spotlessly clean, comfortable and well-placed for exploring the area, we found the locals to be friendly including the deer who regularly posed for photos! The spacious, enclosed garden was perfect for the dogs. The local shop was well-stocked and we would recommend going to the ‘Jam Jar’ bar/restaurant at the The Aultbea Hotel just along the road. Would also recommend a visit to the Highland Woodturner (friendly and knowledgeable about the area) and the cafe /gift shop Oran Na Mara (check opening times first). Thank you for a wonderful holiday home - much appreciated!
