silent holidays in the "green nowhere"
During the Corona-pandemic we finally managed to make our holidays in the pre-booked holiday home. The house was nice with some small matters. On arrival, we found the keys in a box at the wall and let us in by ourselves. Communication if necessary was only possible by telephone. The host was friendly and helpful, any questions were answered in time and requests were fulfilled also very quick (e.g. fresh towels and bed linen after a week). The house was situated in a group of 3 or 4 objects within green fields and trees. No civilization in direct sight, the next village was some miles away. A car is highly recommended. The winter garden was very nice for vacation and relaxation. We were able to visit a badger running over the meadow. We made several excursions to many sightseeing targets. All rewarding places were as near (or far) in the same kind by its relative central situation. We recommend collecting the necessary information in front of the holiday because one of the biggest problems was the missing (or at least poor) internet connection. There is no Wifi available neither internet by cable and the connection by phone was very poor and worked only at some places with poor speed. Here are some further critical points you'll not find in the listing: - 1st floor was very small (in height), persons over 1,70m easily get a headache if not carefully - kitchen equipment was very poor (maybe because of Corona) - bath equipment was partially broken (cistern) and the shower was very small and old, windows in the bath very old and dirty - mattress was old and worn out - one-glass windows could endure new paint All-in-all it was okay and acceptable as it wasn't our first holidays in Scotland but knowing this all we had chosen another home. Thanks nevertheless. David

Beautiful cottage but needs bird feeders, people come here for the wildlife and nowhere to put out food. Badgers also visit frequently and that would also be a big tourist attraction if it was mentioned. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

I booked this place last minute as a base for local road cycling.
I booked this place last minute as a base for local road cycling. Was surprised this place was still available! Ideal quiet rural setting with deer in the fields in front and red squirrels in the trees at the back. The house perfectly clean, tidy and equipped. Also spacious car parking and garden. Only small negative to me was that it was not completely secluded as per what the rental agent said, but saying that it is at the end of the row of estate holiday lets. Mobile Signal was hit or a miss depending on time of day - but that and no wifi is pure bliss to me. Mary was very helpful with all my queries before my arrival - a very warm highland welcome WAS very much received! I would recommend and will be back!

Lovely Cottage in a beautiful location.
Lovely Cottage in a beautiful location. Everything you could need for a good holiday. Good road and public transport links nearby and lovely walks by the river and through the estate. My only criticism is the stairs could be dangerous at night as the top step opens onto the landing and if it's dark at night you could forget and fall down the stairs. Could have done with a bit more cleaning equipment ie there was 1 black bag and hardly any washing up liquid no bleach etc. Over all though the cottage was lovely and we will be booking again. We had a lovely relaxing time.

Bonne location
Nous avons passé un bon séjour, nous remercions le gardien qui est venu nous chercher à 3h du matin sous la pluie. Le petit bémol manque de couvert et ustensiles de cuisine.

Not really up on a holiday.
Not really up on a holiday. We were up this time on a working holiday. We have family in Muir of Ord who are building a house and my wife & myself were up in Scotland helping out with things that need to be done when preparing to move house.
