Wonderful location, the property is beautiful, spacious and well maintained. The welcome pack was a lovely touch -many thanks. Lesley Ann went out of her way to ensure we had a wonderful time, even providing us with a shower seat and non slip mat for the elderly relatives in our party which was greatly appreciated. We would love to return.

One of the best holiday homes we have ever stayed in. The house was spotless and spacious. Plenty of room for our four children and two dogs. The area is beautiful and peaceful. Having sheep and highland cows as neighbours was a lovely treat and the kids throughly enjoyed watching them. We were a short drive from Loch Lomond and other beauty spots, meaning we could spend our days exploring then come back to the house and relax. The views from the house are stunning and when sat in the hot tub with a glass of wine you can completely relax and enjoy the Scottish landscape. Lesley was lovely and met us when we first arrived.Thank you we have fallen in love with Scotland and will be back
