We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday at River Mill House, nicely furnished and well equipped. The weather was pretty wet and it was good to come back to the comfort of our holiday house. We had a little problem with the electricity, otherwise I would have given five stars. The owner offered us a discount, which we accepted and he was going to get it fixed, so the next person will be able to give five stars. We would thoroughly recommend River Mill House.

Absolutely gorgeous setting for this house.
Absolutely gorgeous setting for this house. There are mountain views from pretty much every window. Spacious living accommodation and scenic garden with fabulous views and a stream gently passing by the bottom. Nice places to sit out and take in the view. Plenty of walks from the door. The house is very well equipped - we also enjoyed the BBQ hut and using the pool table. Local Co-op very handy (just a few minutes walk) and also a few minutes to a pub/restuarant, a fish and chip shop and a lovely patisserie shop (the chocolate brownie is delicious!) Easy walk to Glencoe (some good walks from here) which passes a coffee shop and a very good arts and craft shop - ideal if you are looking for gifts. We loved our stay and the house was perfect to come back to after trips out.
Emplacement idéal pour visiter la région qui regorge de choses à voir et à faire. Charmant village avec toutes les commodités (magasin, centre accueil visiteurs, café, restaurants,...) accessibles à pied. Equipements complets et de bonne qualité : cuisine, literie, mobilier,...Petite touche écossaise dans chaque pièce très appréciée. Extérieur super avec rivière, étang, barbecue et vue dégagée sur les collines. Petits cadeaux de bienvenue du propriétaire. Seule déception, nous n'avons pas pu faire sa connaissance. C'est la 3ème fois que nous séjournons dans cette région et nous sommes toujours autant éblouis par ses paysages majestueux. Nous y reviendrons encore, c'est sûr !!!Et aussi, nous avons visité nos 4 terrains aux Highlands Titles et avons adopté 4 vaches.
Le logement est suffisamment spacieux pour 12 personnes et le salon est particulièrement convivial. La maison est très bien située pour servir de départ à de nombreuses randonnées et à proximité de commerces.
Nous avons passé une semaine très agréable et très confortable.
