We enjoyed our stay at the Bothy - it was a great location to explore the beautiful lakes from.

A couple of things could be improved.. There was no welcome package - we eventually received an email welcoming us a couple of hours after our arrival. This gave simple instructions for the blinds, oven etc. but no information about the local area. The Bothy itself was comfortable but the bathrooms had a very unpleasant ‘drain’ smell. It eventually improved after the second day. A small issue that we noted was the hanging rail in the bedroom seems to have been put in for giants. I am 5’5” and it was impossible to reach to take the hangers down. Although not mentioned in the listing, a hair dryer would have been appreciated. Otherwise it was a good base with all the amenities we needed.

A lovely stay at the Bothy.

Great location being so close to Lakeside and some great pubs near by. The accommodation is lovely, very quiet and has everything you need. Improvements: WiFi is a little hit & miss, we struggled streaming anything on the TV and there is no arial to access normal TV - however perfect if you want to switch off from the world. That said, we had good communication with the owner in getting it working initially. Cleanliness - as other reviews have mentioned, I think the floor could do with a deeper clean and there were a few cobwebs / dead spiders around. The black wheelie bins were completely full, so nowhere to leave rubbish. It would also be great to have an ironing board for the iron. Would we return, yes depending on price.

Fabulous location and stunning property.

Our second visit which won’t be our last. The only improvement I can think of is the internet speed is slow at 14mbps. Great for single use items such as the smart tv in the cottage but struggled to run a couple of phones and a laptop all at the same time (and have the smart tv on). Thank you again for a lovely stay. Highly recommend ⭐️
