Well equipped cottage in good location.. Would definitely return and would recommend..

We have used Sykes before and booked this holiday as we felt Sykes could be trusted to deliver a good standard of accommodation.. However on arrival at the cottage we were very disappointed. The fence bordering the cottage is falling down and the back garden was overgrown to the point that we couldn’t even get into the ‘pretty seating and barbecue area’ that was advertised. After two days a gardener arrived and cut all the weeds back but I still had to clean down the outdoor seats which were covered in algae and bird waste before we could use them. Inside the rooms were as advertised and we were quite comfortable. However it felt in desperate need of redecoration. Wallpaper was peeling off the wall and ceiling in the living room and many of the carpets were stained. One of slats on the double bed was broken, although the mattress was actually extremely comfortable. We were also concerned about the general cleanliness of the cottage - there were dirty oven gloves and tea towels in one of the kitchen drawers, the cushions on the kitchen chairs were filthy and dirty tissues were found under beds in two of the bedrooms. The cottage is in a lovely area with lots to do and has a playground opposite which makes it good for children.

I am sorry to say that the cleanliness and general state of repair of the cottage was really disappointing.. The place needed a deep clean, there was a used tissue under the bed, the bedroom was very dusty and the bathroom light fitting was full of flies. The downstairs bedroom and kitchen both smelt strongly of damp, the bathroom window wouldn't open, the sealant around the bath was mouldy and the wall paper was coming off the wall and ceiling in the lounge. We were unable to empty our recycling into the bin for collection as this was full. This hadn't been emptied by the council as it had glass in it. I reported both this and the bathroom window to the owner and also contacted yourselves about the bathroom window as soon as I arrived. Neither issue was resolved during our stay. We would have liked to have left the property in a cleaner state, but the vacuum cleaner was ineffective and I had to resort to using a dust pan and brush on the lounge carpet.

The cottage was very nice.. But we have some remarks. There was no toiletpaper, no pellets for the dishwasher, the fire place was not cleaned and there was no starter pack for the fire, 2 pans were not clean they were greasy. We stayed two weeks in the cottage and we expected that after one week clean bedlinen and towels. After all we had a very good time in the cottage and we loved the neighbourhood.

The cottage is in beautiful and quiet location and has been well equipped with good facilities.. If there was any criticism about the cottage I’d say the mattresses are quite hard so we didn’t have a particularly good sleep. Even met the neighbours who were very friendly and gave good ideas on places to visit.

Great location.. Close to Black Isle Show and lovely play park for little ones across the road.

Great location for Dingwall, Inverness, Loch Ness and Black Isle.. Lots of great walks and scenery to enjoy nearby. Also a fine base for exploring the mountains and a wonderful north golf coast.
