Previous visitors' comments about Katchana:

The location and size of the property were excellent. To go into the kitchen in the morning and look out of the window at deer and red squirrels was magical.
Mrs Samson, Troon, April 2013

Was a wonderful location with everything needed to enjoy a great holiday and the hot tub is lovely. Owner was helpful and easy to contact.
Miss Green, Havant, December 2012

We particularly enjoyed the location and seclusion of the property - the wildlife, the views and the heating. We had a lovely time.
