"Beautiful cottage and the surroundings were stunning. Seals in the bay. Was lovely getting out and about. Mairi was very welcoming would stay again. "
"The property is clean and has many amenities available for you to use. The property needs a little bit of TLC but otherwise it is a perfect base for some of the things along the NC 500. However Nikki is a brilliant host and was very responsive to messages too
I would highly recommend Worth a Look for food although it closes at 7pm"
"The cabin is very comfortable, well-equipped with all that you need, and with a short walk, you can discover an amazing beach. Great place to stay and rest."
"Stunning views,Lots of walking around, a shop with friendly people,a helpful neighbor,a cozy cottage,we needed nothing else ,we find the quietness we needed …"
"Lovely cottage, well equipped. Very comfortable, tranquil location. Excellent Laundy area. Amazing welcome package. Wi-Fi slow to even non-existent at times. The photos don't show that you have a house right in front of you (albeit part of the estate) and the beach is further away than expected."
"The Northern Lights cottage is perfectly located for exploring Scotland's central north coast. The cottage looks out over Talmine Bay, the Rabbit Islands, and the North Sea beyond. Skinnet Beach is just down the hill, a short walk away. The house is lovely with a large, well-equipped modern kitchen and two newly renovated baths, both with good showers. I would definitely stay here again."
"Was great to just chill out, never looked at my lap top, whisky, walked dog on great beach, just chilled out, property was ok, log fire, good for the soul"
