    We did not want to go home. James the owner could not have been more welcoming and helpful. We will definitely recommend to friends and would love to return ourselves.

  • Michael

    Well situated for travel across the island. The property was well equipped and furnished to a high standard throughout, it did feel like a home from home. We will consider a return next year, highly recommended. Thanks to the owner James Lamont for looking after us so well.

  • Dennis

    We had a most enjoyable time here. The only suggestion I would make is perhaps more instructions would be nice, eg for the wood burner, and for finding the cottage. No tools or gloves for the woodburner were provided. Although it was possible to connect the TV to the internet via the wifi code provided, accounts for the catch-up services were not set up. Other than that, a fantastic cottage.
