The place was comfortable and well equipped But we where misled by the photo in the advert We thought we where turning up to a place backing on to a loch In fact the decking was alongside a busy road And the property was an ex council maisonette We could hear most of the peopleâs lives above us

The house is spotless and the owners have thought of everything you could possibly need, the welcome pack was above and beyond and really appreciated. We hope to book up again for next year.
