Rien. On est partis quand on a vu l'état des lieux

C'était sale. J'avais réservé pour une chambre double deluxe et une chambre lit king standard pour un montant de 208€. A notre arrivée le monsieur nous a proposé une chambre pour 3 personnes ou un mobil home qu'on a visité. C'était sale ça sent le chien. On a cherché un autre logement et on est parti. De ce fait si booking veut bien me rembourser..... Il n'est pas normal de trouver un tel logement sur votre site. Les commentaires sont très anciens ce qui expliquerait qu'ils ne décrivent pas l'état réel du logement. La cuisine qu'on est censé utiliser puisque le monsieur ne fait plus les petits déjeuners comme indiqué dans l'annonce est dans un état déplorable.

Very nice owner and comfortable beds

The place is a little tired. Fine at low cost rates but we paid £100 for a family room, which was very steep for the quality of accommodation.

Wonderful place at an exceptionally reasonable price

10.0

I got a traditional warm Scottish welcome - Gordon was a very amenable host. I booked the family room and if I'm honest I had trouble getting up in time for checkout - the double bed was exceptionally warm and comfortable. This room had TV, refreshments on a tray, more than enough storage and nice touches like magazines dotted around for some light bedtime reading. Parking was directly outside on the driveway, a vast improvement from my previous night's stay in Inverness... Some might consider the interior/decorations a bit old fashioned but in reality, this place has everything you could want - it exudes character and feels like a home. There was ample space in the room and I think it offers excellent value for the price.

Two very minor gripes - the breakfast was stated in the listing as "continental" when it was just tea/coffee/small box of cereal on offer. And the shower bracket in the "main" bathroom was loose, so the shower head kept falling down.
