Lovely, comfortable and well-appointed property. A nice safe outdoor space for our dog to enjoy too. The only criticism is the wifi, which was patchy during out stay.

Lovely Kinloch Property

We enjoyed nine nights at this property and had a wonderful time. The beds are the best we've ever slept in - including at some very high end lodges. The kitchen is very well appointed, although the knives could have been sharper but there was no knife sharpener. Loved that we could could eat at an outside table each night. Our group really enjoyed their stay at this property and would certainly stay there again.

There was no place for the dogs to lie when it was raining, a bit of shelter by the front door if the wind didn't turn and rain through the decorative arch. Other dogs pushed through the fence, and we couldn’t leave the dogs behind to roam in the yard; we had to secure them. They're part of our family, and them being locked up when it rains away from us was hard, especially since it rains most days. Covered area, if we paid for them to be there, would have been nice. When the sun is out, all is good, and you can put up an umbrella.Maybe mirrors in the rooms will free up the bathrooms, especially if you have three teenage daughters and a grandma sharing a bathroom.Otherwise the house was easy functional, great area to entertain the girls in the garage. Great walking not too far and beautiful tracks around. We had a fabulous stay! Was grateful to be able to take dogs but as mentioned was a bit hard when it rained.
