What do our guests say?
We had a great week at Tigh a' Mhaide. The cottage is 5*, everything was great - super clean and modern within the surroundings of a lovely rural area. Very comfy beds and excellent bathrooms/showers. The kitchen was well equipped for things like cooked breakfasts (and more im sure, but we ate out during the day/evening), Fantastic coffee machine !! (I do like nice coffee). Spacious open plan living area which made it super easy to relax and enjoy ourselves when we came back to the cottage from our various travels. Hilary was really friendly and helpful, left us to it, but just next door if we needed anything. Really appreciated the welcome basket and milk in the fridge !! Excellent information pack about the cottage when we arrived (and even manuals for the kitchen appliances). Really professional 5* experience and certainly worth the price point. RECOMMENDED with no hesitation... 11 out of 10 :-)

What a fantastic place to stay. The house is stunning and we felt relaxed from the 1st minute. Hilary welcomed us and respected our privacy, although we don t mind chatting with locals. House is very well equiped and every bedroom has its own bathroom...on top of that..another bathroom downstairs...what a treat! We loved it and if we come back to this area we will definately book our stay at Hilaries house. 10 out of 10!

Everything needed for a comfortable stay is included. Our welcome pack and meeting with Hilary when we arrived was informative and very welcome and helped us settle very quickly after a long journey. A good central location for varied walks from the door. Beds are extremely comfortable and rainfall showers make getting up in the morning a pleasure! Our black lab enjoyed the morning walk in the private woods straight across from the property and we enjoyed cooking in the well equipped kitchen. You must visit the farm (10 min walk) and taste the excellent goats milk ice cream. All in all a fabulous holiday- we will be back!

What a beautiful cottage in a stunning location. The cottage is immaculately presented with thoughtful touches all around. Hilary is very welcoming and readily available for any queries, not that we had any at all. Unfortunately we had to curtail our visit due to home circumstances but will certainly be back next year. Thank you.

Lovely cottage in a picturesque location, close to multiple trails and peaks. Made to feel very welcome from outset with easy check in. Cottage was spotless with everything we needed for a rural retreat. Dogs were welcomed, even had dog treats waiting for them. Lovely stay. Will definitely be visiting again.

What a lovely stay! 5***** Absolutely spotless little annex, in a beautiful location. We stayed for 5 nights over New Year and were extremely happy with our stay and Hilary's attention to detail. We were very impressed as the house was kitted out with 2 en-suites, extra large beds, lots of games, a coffee machine, Netflix, good wifi and a washer/dryer - perfect for a little adventure stay! Although you are staying in the annex next to Hilary's house, we had a beautifully quiet stay, with no interruptions. We were delighted with the location. Also very close to some great walks- we'd highly recommend Ben A'an. And even a wacky pub down the road with eccentric owners, not for the faint of heart but laughs all round. Hilary was a great host, she provided plenty of information regarding our stay as well as some great local recommendations.

Wonderfully comfortable beds and fabulous showers. The welcome pack is a delightful treat. We have had a lovely few days walking, collapsing here in the evenings. We had a delicious meal at The Byre Inn and enjoyed its eccentricity.
