Bay Farm consists of two specifically designed self-catering holiday cottages, Roebuck Cottage and Swallow Cottage, and built on the site of an old farm steading in 2000. Overlooking Munlochy Bay on the southeast side of the Black Isle, the cottages command superb views across the bay and the forested hills and farmland on the south shore, with the mountains of Strathconon in the distance. Well off the beaten track, and in quiet rural surroundings but within a short drive of Inverness, Bay Farm is a haven for birdwatchers and nature lovers.
Roebuck Cottage is a charming cottage that offers open plan, spacious and bright living accommodation. This self-catering cottage has one king en-suite bedroom and one twin en-suite bedroom, sleeping four guests. The accommodation is principally on the ground floor and is fully accessible by wheelchair.

We particularly liked the location of the cottage - and of course the view. The cottage was very comfortable.
There were no instructions on how to operate the T.V. We were given help by the gardener/strimmer operator when he turned up to cut the grass on the Monday. (older guests - as we were, are not always very handy with electronics!)

It's a real home from home..... with bonuses! The location is amazing, the cottage is beautiful and there is plenty of wildlife to see. We've been lot of times and the standard has never slipped. We usually re-book as soon as we get home.
As far as we are concerned it is perfect.

I have assumed that 1 is low and high is 10 on your scale, although this is not specified. Surprised after all these months to be asked to comment, normally these feedback forms are received much more promptly.
We had a very pleasant stay at Roebuck - very mixed weather, from snow to hot sun, all in 7 days, Cottage lovely, views lovely, and one very happy dog! A peaceful and relaxing break.
Perhaps it was just us, or perhaps we should not have used our TomTom - but we did have a few false starts before we found the cottage!

Peace, tranquility, relaxation. Good local shops, restaurants, cafes. Lots to do in the area - walking, wildlife, history, etc. Accommodation provides very comfortable, convenient living with great views. Good walks from the door.

We have been holidaying at Munlochy for almost 12 years , initially at Easter, but now we visit at least three times a year with friends, dogs, family. We love the location and the peacefulness and hope to have many more good times there.
The pressure in the back bedroom shower is very slow and can revert from hot to cold. Can anything be done to improve it, we noticed a difference in the performance when the master bedroom shower was renewed - don't know if there is a connection?
Would it be possible to put a bathroom cabinet in the shower rooms ?
Cancellation: The Holidaymaker is liable for the total hire charge unless written notice of the intention to cancel the booking is received at least eight weeks prior to the commencement of the holiday. The deposit paid to confirm the booking, and other monies paid, will only be refunded if the Owner is able to re-let the holiday cottage for the period of the holiday let. In the event of re-letting, the Owner will retain the sum of 100GBP to cover administrative costs and (subject to deduction of that sum) refund to the Holidaymaker the balance of monies received from the Holidaymaker, or the sum received from re-letting whichever sum shall be the lower. Every effort will be made to re-let a cancelled booking, but the Holidaymaker is advised to take out holiday insurance to cover that eventuality.
