    The surroundings are stunning. It was lovely to hear birds singing and bleeking sheep. The little cottage is clean, cosy, and very comfortable. There was everything that you could possibly need. There was even a bottle of milk in the fridge on our arrival. The host is very friendly and generous. I highly recommend and hope to be back in Autumn to see the stars

    Stayed one night as a stopover during our NC500 trip. Lovely place with an amazing view of Armadale Beach. The house has well-equipped kitchen and had a nice big bathroom. Wish we stay longer.

    The head height upstairs isn’t ideal but they have made good use of the space

    Self catering cottage but owners had kindly left milk in the fridge and there was a selection of cereal and cereal bars. The kitchen had everything that you could need and the cottage was cozy and warm

    The shared bedroom space of the two double beds make it difficult if someone snores! There is visual privacy but not noise privacy. To get there you have to be prepared for the frustrations of travelling on the NC500 - slow campervans and ultra aggressive sports cars.

    Very peaceful location with beautiful beach in walking distance. Nicely renovated and very well equipped cottage that was very clean. Nice garden to sit out in.

    The glass is slightly short on the bathtub so when you shower you have to be careful not to get water everywhere (but the water pressure is great!).

    My husband and I stayed here for two nights while making our way along the NC500 and loved it. It’s in a pretty spot and so peaceful! It’s a great place to get away from it all. In terms of the sea view, you can see Armadale Beach from the upstairs windows and hear the waves as well, which is lovely. The house is super comfortable and cozy and had everything we needed. We brought our own little Nespresso machine with us because we are coffee people but there was plenty of tea and instant coffee as well as a mix of basic items at the house. (You’ll want to stop in Thurso for groceries on your way if coming from the east.) The Wi-Fi is a bit slow as others have mentioned but it wasn’t a real issue for us. The upstairs is under the roof so taller people may need to duck a little but it adds to the charm.

    Cosy and stylish place with all things that you need. Sleeping places are upstairs - one bedroom with a double bed separated with a curtain. The second bed is in a walk-through area on the second floor. Kitchen is fully equiped. A bath if you wish. Shampoos provided. Parking in own yard.

    Slow wifi but enough for basic browsing/netflix.

    Home away from home! Really cosy cottage that has recently been refurbished. High quality fit and finish throughout. We booked this cottage halfway through a 2 week road trip through Scotland to rest & reset and it's exactly what we needed after a busy week hiking and travelling, and to do laundry. It also had private gated parking, easily fit 3-4 cars in for context of space. I'd recommend doing a grocery shop before arriving at the cottage so you have everything you need for your stay, as it's not too close to any major supermarkets. The cottage itself has everything you need to cook 3 meals a day - it even had an airfryer! Bedroom spans the whole top floor of the property. Note for people over 6ft, you will need to duck due to low ceiling on top floor but a very small inconvenience unless you sleep standing up. Host was great throughout, clear instructions for self-check in but glad we got to meet on depature. Highly recommend and would definitely stay again.

    We found the sloping ceiling upstairs was difficult for us to negotiate without bumping into it.

    We appreciated the lovely garden and would have love to eat outside but the weather was too cold that week.

    Cosy croft in a dramatic landscape

    We would have preferred a more firm mattress, as well as a dishwasher (to spend less time washing dishes whilst on holiday!) Bathroom a bit dated. Kitchen needs measuring scales.

    Lovely cosy place in a great location for exploring an area of incredible natural and historic spots. The croft has been nicely converted overall, with great living spaces and heating system. Plenty of hot water with good pressure, and a hot towel rail in the bathroom meant towels were never left soggy.
