Loved the ease of parking. We arrived at midnight and the host greeted us at arrival and was helpful.
Breakfasts were very nice.
The hosts were kind, helpful, but not intrusive.

Fyona is helpful and friendly. Breakfast was made to order and excellent. Accommodations were spotless. This property is not in the heart of the city but it is an easy walk in.

A really great week on an enchanting island
We had the best of experiences possible. Everything was just perfect. All the furniture and fittings are as new and everything worked as it should. Couldn't find a fault. As a guest house you couldn't find better. Fyona is really very helpful with superb breakfasts.

Really enjoyed our stay here. Found a couple of bugs in the bedroom (looked like pill bugs we have in the states). Not threatening. Beds were comfortable but were more the size of queen beds instead of King as advertised. Still, none of this would keep me from staying there again.

The room was a good size, good bathroom facilities, lovely breakfast room and everything was clean and fresh.
The breakfast had a good choice and was always produced promptly and the staff were attentive without being intrusive. Expecially enjoyed the haggis for breakfast.
Will certainly return.
