Well equipped and comfortable. Friendly neighbours with everything in easy reach locally. We did not want to go home and that includes our dog. So good that we have already booked for next year.

The location is fantastic, straight out of back gate onto the links. Our spaniel was in her element. The cottage is very comfortable and well equipped and wanted for nothing. We had an issue with the smoke alarm which after a phone call to Sykes, the housekeeper and electrician came out and was fixed within an hour, very impressed. We would have liked nicer outdoor table and chairs but that they are out in all weather so do understand Great days out on Nairn beach and forest, Glenmore Forest Park, Corrieshalloc Gorge, Roseisle Beach and many more Would highly recommend
