Very cosy and comfortable!

Paul was a very friendly host adding nice touches such as fresh milk in the fridge for the supplied tea, coffee and biscuits. Started a fire in the wood stove and it was such a cozy evening. Really lovely place.

Paul met us at the property and talked us through all the cottages features and discussed the local area. Cottage was immaculate and spotless. Very comfortable beds and a great nights sleep. If you are doing the NC500, then this is a perfect stopover and very tranquil. Would highly recommend.

This is our second trip to the Smithy house and have enjoyed it both times. Paul is very friendly and helpful. We love the glittering toilet! The beds are comfortable and the room is tidy. It’s quiet and a short ride to the Stoer Lighthouse where there are amazing views.

Stay was ok. For the money it was very basic, no TV, no shower gel, basically just no frills. Great host

Perfect location for our half way stop on NC 500 so glad we had sunshine as the roads to the cottage would be challenging in bad weather. We did try to drive down to the beach for sunset but missed the turning and ended up stuck behind a herd of cows. It was good to light a fire have a drink and warm up a pizza. The bed wasn't the most comfortable but we forgave it because everything else was so good ( and we do usually sleep on king size vspring which is difficult to match away from home)

Well-appointed cottage that was once a stable block. Very nicely renovated with all the essentials that you need in a vacation home. Welcome pack (including a small bottle of milk!). Comfortable bed. Wood burning stove plus electric heaters. Set on its own behind the main house, it is visited by sheep grazing on common land and deer coming down to visit. Beautiful part of the country and well recommended for those wanting tranquility and calm (no tv!).

Consigliato

Un padrone di casa estremamente gentile, in un posto da sogno su un susseguirsi di laghi. Il cottage affaccia su un prato che può essere il simbolo della autentica Scozia. Il posto è isolato, non c’è dubbio ma comunque su una strada, questo lo rende estremamente affascinante.
