Loved our stay at Betty's byre ,it's home from home absolutely everything you could need is provided for a great stay.. we've visited many times with our dogs and they love it , a great secure garden for them. Comfy beds and lots of sofas and even a really comfy wing back chair love it. If your reading this review deciding on a place to stay you definitely can't go wrong We've stayed in many places and this is by far the best . Andrea is lovely and makes you feel very welcome ..from our stays we've now decided to move to the area from the south as everybody is so lovely and there are numerous things to do in the local area beaches walks etc it's a beautiful place.
