Beautiful steadings with lovely rooms and excellent hosts. Wifi was in and out, but frankly if you're needing a distraction from the scenery and chilled vibe, you need a word with yourself!

We stayed in The Bothy, which was a very cosy and comfortable, very well equipped cottage. Everything you need for a comfortable stay. The hosts are welcoming, and even leave a goody pack of milk and treats. Highly recommended, and would love to return.
