"this is a comfortable and well equipped cottage in a private settlement. The owners are selling and it will be under new management soon. The internet access was unusually poor but I understand is not normally strong. it is an idylllic and historic location with a small harbour, although the view is from the house is a little limited by the main building. There are all necessary amentities except a church within a few miles and the local beaches are astonishingly beautiful. We swam."
"House and hosts were amazing.The house was warm and well equipped We were delighted to be offered fresh seafood and fish directly off Willie’s boat, what a feast we had.We were lucky to get some warm sunny weather. A fantastic break. Thank you Willie and Mairi"

"The location of the house is great and the view of the bay is simply magical, especially in the sunshine.However, the cleanliness left something to be desired.In addition, some repairs were needed. There were windows that should not be opened. In the upstairs bedroom (the one with the shower), there was no hot water during the entire stay. At the end of the stay, the window in this bedroom no longer closed properly. "
"Stunning views,Lots of walking around, a shop with friendly people,a helpful neighbor,a cozy cottage,we needed nothing else ,we find the quietness we needed …"
"The Northern Lights cottage is perfectly located for exploring Scotland's central north coast. The cottage looks out over Talmine Bay, the Rabbit Islands, and the North Sea beyond. Skinnet Beach is just down the hill, a short walk away. The house is lovely with a large, well-equipped modern kitchen and two newly renovated baths, both with good showers. I would definitely stay here again."
