Summary: Beautiful home equipped with everything you need and more for your stay. Hosts had provided a personalised welcome board which was a lovely touch, as well as a welcome pack with breakfast cereals, milk and tea & coffee selection. The bathrooms were equipped with body washes and even shower caps.Arriving Friday after a long trip, the takeaway menus came in handy.. and we discovered that the properties location was situated quite closely to town itself and other local amenities. Our only fault (which actually was more on us than the hosts) is that whilst instruction manuals were provided for most appliances (very helpful indeed!) we didn’t quite work out the coffee machine?Otherwise, top property, 100% what is says in the listing plus more! If we’re ever in the areas again, it’s definitely top of our list to stay! - party of 6 adults, 1x car, very nicely accommodated with plenty of space.

Summary: Beautiful home! However, it was a bit hard to find since there is another home with the same house number very close by and the rental car GPS system could not find the new neighborhood street to get to this newer house number. Fortunately, there were people walking by that walked us to the correct street nearby. Additionally, the Expedia.com home access instructions notified to get the keys from a garden lockbox that was inaccessible because the gate was locked. Without WiFi/Internet access outside, I was fortunate to find new Expedia messages I had taken screenshots of in Stirling before heading to Inverness, and the owner had given new instructions on where to find the lockbox to finally get into the home. Both location and lockbox info, however, are just small glitches the owners can ensure Expedia and other rental companies are aware of moving forward. The home was wonderful. The only thing I would ask from the owners in the future is for each person arriving to have their own towel set (body towel and a hand towel, and possibly a washcloth) and not just one towel each and a hand towel to share. And, please have the home set to 22 degrees Celsius upon arrival instead of 17 when it was so cold and rainy outside. Other than that, the home was perfection and, apart from using the towels and bedding, we left it in as good of condition as how we found it. Highly recommend this beautiful home.

Summary: We were so very tired when we arrived. We had been in another area of Scotland and drove for over three hours. When we stepped inside, they had a sign in the kitchen that welcomed us. You have no idea how good that sign made us feel. They even hd some nice snacks and beverages ready for us. The house was amazing. So beautifully decorated and spotless! The beds were comfortable and I had the best shower of the two weeks of being in Scotland as the showers were large, excellent water pressure and plenty of hot water. The community is very nice and there is a Tesco within five minutes of the house. The house is sooo nice and that kitchen is to die for!
