Thank you so much for your lovely review Travis!
About the host
Hosted by Julie Carter
I was born in Manchester and discovered a love for hiking in my thirties, especially mountain walking. We climbed Ben Nevis three times (not on the same day), and Steve once climbed the five sisters of Kintail and nearly didn't live to tell the tale, but that's another story. We eventually bought a B&B on the Isle of Skye as a lifestyle move, and in the ten years we lived there, we climbed one mountain, gained weight and got old. We built a five-star-rated business, which was hugely successful, but was killing us. So we sold up and moved to the East Coast, which we love - no more horizontal rain and a supermarket only a few minutes away instead of an hour's round trip. We are semi-retired, so we only have one apartment and an onsite static caravan, which allows us lots of time to walk and write novels.
Why they chose this property
We love the peace and tranquility. The nearest house is at the bottom of the field, so there's just us and the wildlife, although there's not much to tell us apart these days. There are walks from the doorstep, which is a bonus when you have a dog. There's lots of wildlife, roe deer, woodpeckers, red kites, ospreys, red squirrels in the woods, and pheasants. The beaches are stunning, and you can walk for miles. We're close to many golf courses, but as a non-golfer, I'm with Mark Twain - a good walk spoiled - but that's just me.
What makes this property unique
Our location doesn't suit those who want to walk to the shops, a pub or restaurant, as you can only reach these by car, a ten-minute drive. But if you're looking for a total escape from it all, peace, quiet and nature, this is the place. And if you want to enjoy a drink on the patio, bring your own alcohol.
We use quality furnishings and products for guests' use; our mantra is, "What would we want if we were staying here?" The bed is comfortable, and the linens are Egyptian cotton, with a duck-down duvet and pillows—I wish I had a £1 for every time we get asked about the pillows!
It's self-catering, but we leave things that we hope you will enjoy during your stay, such as olive oil, salt and pepper, sugar, teas, fresh filter coffee and some fresh milk or oat milk. If you need anything, we're always happy to share.
