Teresa C.
I’m 71, and this is the best holiday accommodation of its kind I’ve ever stayed in. The cottage is beautiful and so clean, and it had everything we could possibly need. We were there as mum, son, and granny, along with the dog. We didn’t want to leave. I highly recommend it and would return in a minute.

We had a very enjoyable one-night stay in this quaint place. The house is so well equipped for self-catering, with everything you could ask for. There’s even a wood-fired hot tub in the back garden, with a retractable awning.
Dylan A.
A wonderful place to stop, and an amazing little discovery we made while passing through. It was clean, warm, and friendly, and the welcome and hospitality were out of this world. We’ll make this pilgrimage again to enjoy the area’s peace, quiet, and relaxed atmosphere year after year. A must-stop if you’re doing the NC 500.
Peter L.
The place was spotless, and the beds made for a really good night's sleep. John o' Groats is only about a 10-minute drive away, which made the location handy. I'd happily recommend staying here.
Oliver G.
After a few nights camping, the hot tub, robes, and comfortable beds were just what we needed. The owner was great, and it’s a lovely spot for the price. I’d definitely stay again and recommend it.
