    “Lovely central location for lots of activities”
    I was impressed with the cottage on arrival. It's set back from the road in the garden of a large house. We were lucky as we had the large garden to ourselves as their was no one staying in the main house that week. The garden is secure which was great for the dogs and they loved the freedom to run around. The outdoor hot tub is amazing, so lovely and warm and great after a long days walk.

    I was impressed with the cottage on arrival. It's set back from the road in the garden of a large house. We were lucky as we had the large garden to ourselves as their was no one staying in the main house that week. The garden is secure which was great for the dogs and they loved the freedom to run around. The outdoor hot tub is amazing, so lovely and warm and great after a long days walk. I also liked the wood burner each evening. There is a really nice walk at the back of the property to Loch Insh and plenty of great walks only a short drive away. The owners of the property were very friendly and we were made to feel welcome in the bar. I only gave 4 stars as a few things let it down. The property doesn't have a freezer, but it is possible to get ice from the bar on an evening. There was only 1 bin bag and 1 toilet roll for the week and kindling for the first night for the fire (plenty of logs were provided) I think this let it down a bit, as I've stayed in establishments which provide enough for the week. The cottage also needs a little TLC. The toilet handle was a bit of an issue, there was a bulb out in the kitchen, the light in the hot tub didn't work, the tv in the bedroom hadn't been wired up yet for sky so no signal and the filter coffee machine didn't work. The front door was also very stiff and difficult to lock. We had a perfectly lovely time and I would recommend it, but it would be great to see these little issues sorted. All in all it was a very enjoyable holiday and a great location.
