Very clean and comfortable once the heating was adjusted to cope with the wet and windy weather. Lovely view of the loch through the panoramic windows. Enjoyed the bird-watching, especially the house-martins fattening up for migration. An interesting approach via a single track road and a steep track across a field. Nervous drivers beware!

What an amazing week, wonderful owners. We all loved the farm tour and the kids learnt so much about where the food on their plates comes from. We will be back.
