Reviews

We spent 7 days in this superb little ex barn. The whole thing was fantastic - the scenery, the incredible peace and quiet and the wildlife. The Bothy itself has been designed, built, and decorated with much love and attention to the smallest detail. 2 bedrooms with really comfortable beds and TV on the wall. The shower room is lovely and efficient, and there is under floor heating all round. The living space is excellent with all you need, and the kitchen area is really nicely appointed and modern. The dishwasher came in very handy, and there is also a washing machine and a drier. All in all, the 7 days went far too quickly and we did not want to leave !!
