    Bed could have been comfier but not much else to improve.

    The bothy is very cute with a lot of character whilst having everything that is needed for a short stay including a fridge and microwave. Everything was beautifully clean too. There were a few bits and bobs around for entertainment including playing cards and books (with hints of the owner's personality). The balcony is a lovely peaceful space with blankets for if it's a bit chilly.

    The matress has seen better days but still managed a good night's sleep.

    Excellent location and everything we needed for our stop over. The outhouse is compact but it has everything you need.

    My only concern was the steep stairs but this is highlighted in the description so anyone booking should know what they are booking.

    Accommodation was suitable for our weekend away. We have fab weather so the outside space of the terrace was an added bonus for us to have a morning cuppa and snacks. It is so central to everything so an excellent spot to stay. The owners are very responsive with questions I asked too. It is a very quirky apartment and suited us well for our weekend away.

    Car parking recommended was near to the accommodation, however, minimal 72 hour tariff £21 (no 24 hour option) - just mentioning so people budget for (would still recommend & stay again) Teaspoon would be handy for those wanting a brew

    Central location, quirky, warm, cosy, comfy bed, great balcony area, fab stay The 2 beers & coffee where welcomed! Good communication from owner & accommodation easily accessed Nice bars/restaurants a short stroll away - & nice places to grab a breakfast from !

    The bed was uncomfortable, can’t help thinking that it could be upgraded by the owners for a modest cost. There is a small “kitchen” area with a microwave and sink but no crockery or cutlery. Not really a problem if you use the nearby caterers.

    Location was exceptional, within 50 metres of cafe, deli, pub and paper shop. Quirky two storey accommodation with usable spacious balcony area. Clean and tidy, toiletries and towels were fine. Charming, prompt communication was appreciated. Great price for a short break and dog friendly.

    The stairs can be a challenge if you’ve had a few. But no incidents from us

    This is a tiny little place which makes use of every nook and cranny and is perfectly formed.

    Outhouse Bothy is as described very quaint, a lot of thought has gone into making the most of the space. It’s in the centre of Kirby so perfect for bars and restaurants. We did have slight hiccup on arriving but this was quickly sorted very much to our satisfaction and we have booked again for later in year when we hope to enjoy sitting on the terrace ☀️ our only suggestion would be a small tv

    Front door needs attention it's an internal door not an external door, it sticks . NO light for keypad for the key. Whitewash walls on the stairs which when going down the Very old stairs gets on your jacket! And damp on the ceiling boards and lights on the shelf have never been wiped clean full of DNA . Said chocs on arrival none, but 2 cans of beer.. I suggest 1 can and one small 🍷. Cost over £20 for parking,couldn't pay for 24 hrs so had to keep going back to top up. Outrageous.

    Location central very good.
