The hosts were amazing people, and we did not have a car so we were stuck in Invergordon. Allan was so kind to drive us wherever we needed to go and treated us like family. It definitely made travel in this area so much kinder, welcoming, and easier. Amazing property too! Gorgeous views and charming vibe.

September break

A comfy and stylish cottage.It was very well equipped with lots of thoughtful extras- maps books and binoculars . As wildlife watchers the bird hide at the end of the garden was a bonus. There are lots of places within easy reach of the property making it a good base for a holiday.
