We had such a wonderful stay here! The breakfast was absolutely delicious, with plenty of choice and everything freshly prepared. In the evening we enjoyed the live Scottish music — it was such a unique and heartwarming experience, accompanied by beautiful videos of Scotland. The host (the lovely gentleman) was incredibly kind, welcoming and attentive, which made us feel right at home. Thank you ...

We were very satisfied with our stay here.
