The Thistle Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent service from the ladies who run the inn"

Craignair - a house that sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

10/10 Excellent

"Een hartelijk welkom in een fantastisch, schoon, ruim en verzorgd huis!In een geweldige omgeving!"

Beautiful house on private estate with hot tub, nature and adventure.

10/10 Excellent

"House itself is in need if a little TLC Didn't stop us from having a brilliant time here.The "hot tub" has to heated with logs, which are provided, left to heat for about 1 hour before going in. Water is brown, dirty looking, from tap but drinking water is provided. Loved the holiday. Host was very helpful and friendly. Dogs were very friendly as we're the horses and sheep. One thing we did miss were mats in the shower as one of the ladies slipped and fell in shower, gave herself a really sore bottom and back. Overall we Loved it. "

Airie Farmhouse - a house that sleeps 6 guests in 3 bedrooms

10/10 Excellent

"Really great cottage for peace and quiet and too enjoy nature, we were constantly surrounded by the resident house martins and swallows! Loads to do in the area. The only bad thing was the midges in the evening but I don't think it was that bad by Scottish standards!"

Airds of Kells House - a house that sleeps 8 guests in 4 bedrooms

8/10 Good

"A lovely house in a wonderful setting. Plenty of room for 7 adults and 2 dogs. Plenty of seating in the front room but every chair is past its best. It is a dog friendly cottage but there isn’t a private garden so our dogs had to be kept on lead at the front of the property because of sheep with lambs. There is a small paved area round the back where you can sit out and watch them off lead but it is a bit overgrown. We were delighted to see hares, red kites and deer from the window and it is possible to have a short walk in the grounds."

Charming 1-bedroom cottage - the perfect couples escape!

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderfully rural and quiet. Husband was feeling pretty rotten and recuperated over the few days we were there. Do take all provisions with you - not a quick jaunt to shop. Delightful"
