    nothing negative to say

    such a well equipped, comfortable, cozy home to come back to from busy, windy sightseeing. The host Alex is great! came by to welcome us, oriented us to the workings of things in the house, left us thoughtful basics in terms of snacks and tea, coffee, milk. washing machine is very handy to have onsite. multiple bathrooms made getting ready in the am quicker. we very much enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend!

    We loved the location of the cottage, standing at the kitchen sink in the morning with sunlight pouring in is a wonderful memory. The cottage was comfortable, roomy with a well equipped kitchen, in a quiet location. Kitty offered thoughtful extras in the kitchen that made our stay extra nice.

    Everything was lovely!!

    We had the warmest welcome, for starters. The cottage was super comfy and homy, with plenty of space for a group/family, and we found sweet details in every corner - there are even enough board games to entertain in the evening. Also, lots of storage.

    Nothing bad to report.

    We had a wonderful experience. The host was nice (was waiting for us with the keys, left some croissants and stuff for breakfast), the house was super spacious, clean and comfy. It is conveniently located North of Stornoway, with views and sheeps for neighbors.

    I recommend a plastic clothes horse for inside incase washing is done. I recommend a hairdryer (we didn't see one, if there was one there). I recommend tissues for bedroom, but maybe they are not popular in Scotland, as we have not found them in some previous places either. But there was nothing we did not like.

    We liked it all. It was warm and cosy and clean and comfortable. The beds were lovely as was the linen. The kitchen was excellent. The host left some nice food and drinks for guests. It was all nicely renovated and very clean. We could park very close to the back door which was convenient. It was perfectly quiet. Nice garden. Washing machine. More than one bathroom. Friendly host was there as soon as we arrived. It was all lovely. Thank you. We would highly recommend it.

    I can't think of a think we needed that Alex didn't provide. It was all very lovely.

    This cottage is wonderfully appointed -- three bedrooms, three baths with full kitchen and living spaces. Our host, Alex, was so friendly and accommodating. The location is great. It's just a 10 minute drive from Stornaway in what feels like the quiet of a small neighborhood. We only wished we'd been able to stay longer!
