  • "Loved our stay at The Wee Smithy."

    Such a warm welcome from the owners, a view from the house which we’ll never forget and the house had everything we needed and more . The welcome basket was a lovely touch. It was a short distance from the Allangrange which served delicious food. We highly recommend this property.

    Everything in the home was as listed and made our stay very enjoyable and relaxing. The hosts were very friendly and helpful and on hand but only if required (leaving us to relax, feeling unhassled and at home). Would highly recommend and hope to return.

    The hosts were fantastic and made contact so we knew they were available should we have any problems - they even advised us on our journey there through the adverse weather. The Wee Smithy was exactly as per the listing, and even included some extras for us and our dog that we weren’t expecting. It was finished to a very high standard, spotlessly clean and extremely cosy. We would definitely visit again.

  • "The wee smiddy is a lovely relaxing holiday home for a couple."

    There are plenty of interesting places to visit from the accommodation. The one thing l would suggest is to have a table lamp or dimmer switch as the down lights were very bright. This is just a suggestion. I would highly recommend the Wee Smiddy as a relaxing comfortable place for a holiday.
