Summary: This property is like a storybook! We stayed at 6 different properties across Scotland during our 2 week trip, and this one was by far the crowd favorite. The house itself has such amazing charm in every corner, and makes you feel at home from the moment you enter. The owners clearly have a lot of love for this property, and provide great instructions on all aspects of making your stay an enjoyable one. The views and property around this cottage are simply unbelievable. Staying here was like taking a deep, cleansing breath. If you are looking for a place to get away from the chaos of the world, this is it.
