It may have taken some finding but...

...it really was the effort we made to get to the cottage in spite of our SatNav leading us astray! Chevonne was lovely and made my sister and me feel most welcome. The welcome pack was quite fun too! Everywhere was spotless inside the cottage, which in itself was the ideal base to either relax or to visit the local countryside. Would I return to the cottage? Yes, indeed, despite the long drive from Nottingham, where I live.

Amazing

From the monent we walked in to the cottage, we knew it was something special. Spotlessly clean, lovely decor and the facilities provided exceptional. The hamper for us and for our dog were a lovely touch. Chevonne and Duncan were great hosts, Chevonne's communication right from the start was great and it was no problem to her to change our dates when something came up for us. You truly have an amazing place. Would highly recommend Balnaha cottage and its surroundings. We will be back. X

Tolle, neu renovierte Unterkunft mit netten Vermietern.Etwas abseits, man muss immer ein Stück fahren.Besonders toll fanden wir Chanonry Point, wo wir Delfine sehen konnten.
