Oct 2008 | We had a lovely holiday. There are lots of good walks to choose from. We enjoyed coming home to a cosy open fire at night. The cottage was clean and well equipped with great views. It was a really nice touch to see the tray with tray bakes and teapot set out for our arrival.

Mr Mcgavigan, Limavady, County Londonderry
Jun 2008 | The setting of this cottage is exceptional, being set in open farmland and surrounded by mountain views.
If you can drag yourself away from this there is plenty to see and do in the area. The children particularly enjoyed the wildlife spotting at Rothiemurchis Estate and Loch Insh.
Mr Simpson, Nottingham, Nottinghamshire
May 2008 | The bit I most liked was, when you opened the curtains in the morning, the sheep and lambs were standing at the fence no more 15 to 20 feet from the window, as a city person this was a lovely experience. A lovely holiday in a beautiful country setting on the wners farm. A big spacious cottage and very thoughtful owners.
