Accommodation was very comfortable, however you had to be careful ascending and descending the stairs. Stair surface was slippery.
Shower tray on the top floor was very slow to drain away.

Only small issue was that check out is 10am but the cleaners arrived at 9.20 making our departure quite rushed and stressful (not easy with a 6 year old) as the sat in the car on the drive while we were packing up - such a shame to leave such a beautiful place in a rush.

The accommodation and location where just amazing! It was so perfect. We loved our stay .
The smallest thing. The cooking pans could have been better with the induction hob for cooking

We stayed here for our honeymoon last year so it was special to return for our first anniversary. We love the seclusion and the large private grounds that the dogs could run around in. I think they remembered it from last year too!! It is lovely to wake up to the sound of the stream and the sight of the lochan. We enjoyed a very lazy holiday, walking the dogs in the large grounds of the estate. Everyone we met was very friendly. The house is very clean and wants for nothing. The men who came to take away the bin for emptying asked if we'd had any problems with wasps. We hadn't then, but a couple of days later we did. I phoned the housekeeper then we went for a walk. The nest had been dealt with by the time we returned. Brilliant. We came across the men again when they were cutting the grass, and again when we were walking. They were very friendly and obviously hard working.
We mentioned last year that one of the rails on the sloped approach to the house is loose and it is still loose. Otherwise no issues.

The cottage and the location are beautiful and calm. Your support during the pandemic was great and we are glad that we could finally stay in the cottage and had a fantastic time. Thanks a lot.

We have stayed at this property on numerous occasions and it never ceases to impress. Easy access to local facilities and areas, but well off beaten track to enjoy a relaxing and tranquil stay in a beautiful location..
No tea towels/oven gloves available which made removing items from oven problematic. No salt or rinse aid in dishwasher. Minor items but can be an issue.
