Cannot wait to return.

Pros: Everything was absolutely perfect, we cannot wait to return, the bothy has been so carefully thought out from it's private position, outlook and has everything you need to have the most relaxing peaceful break, all the staff we met were fabulous and friendly. We were lucky enough to also meet Bouye the gorgeous collie.

Cons: Could not fault a single thing.

Pros: Everything. This was a hidden gem in such a beautiful setting. It was very clean and well equipped, and the staff were very pleasant and helpful, and our dog was made very welcome. Lovely walks and no amount of wildlife. Will definitely be back soon..

Cons: Absolutely nothing.

Just heaven , exactly what we needed

Pros: Just fantastic , little hiccup through mid communication but resolved quickly and with no hassle . Felt like a wee slice of heaven

Cons: Advert is misleading re WiFi , one says it has but only when you go in deeper do you realise that only in business centre

It was an amazing place to stay

Pros: It was in an amazing location, very secluded and private.

Cons: It looked like it had been a while since it had been deep cleaned, with lots of spiderwebs around the windows and on the ceiling. A member of staff should probably greet you and give you a low down of what’s around and available for you to do.

Perfect place for a special occasion

Pros: So many things. We loved using the hot tub, the kind owner, the potential of seeing multiple stars in a dark sky forest. The place itself had hot water, a rocking bench and little touches like tealights scattered around the bothie so that everything was set for a wonderful romantic stay. We would definitely stay again and we're planning to come back here annually.

Cons: Nothing, the stay was perfect!
