Kay was very responsive and helpful in getting us settled. The place was incredibly comfortable and spacious. The back patio has an amazing view. The location was perfect for us. It was a short walk to the most amazing coffee shop and many trails and a short drive to several adorable seaside towns. We are looking forward to staying here again in our next trip to Scotland. ![Morning tea on the patio 🩵](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d2574bf2-dad7-4cac-978a-1a8d55c35da6-1756776316110.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Jen O.
