Nice propert and staff, location has limits.
Property and single person staff both very good.
Location remote from choice of places to eat. One hotel and one Indian take-away only choice. Hotel full and unable to provide food. Indian take-away basic.
For choice --need to drive to Thurso, so next time will find accommodation in Thurso.
It was a privilege to stay in such a beautiful property. Everything was great. Friendly host, great room and breakfast. Easy parking and right on the NC 500 route.

It was a fairytale-like experience!!! We felt like noblemen at a wondrous weekend outing! Beautifully refurbished periodhouse, great hospitality, delicious breakfast made with love according to our choice!
And all that reasonably priced! If it weren't for the distance, we'd go there once a month. Very recommendable to all Britain fans who have always dreamed of escaping into a veritable "Homes&Gardens" retreat
