A lovely cottage ideally placed providing easy access to the A9 for exploring the East coast. Very clean and well equipped providing a real home from home feel during our stay. The owner lives on site and introduced herself on arrival to make sure we were ok which was nice. Would definitely stay again if we are in that neck of the woods.
