Stephen & Hayley

Great spot very peaceful,50 ft from the river, surrounding area very tranquil. The mobile home was spotless and the facilities in the home were spot on.Kitchen utensils and cooking facilities were brilliant. Met Karen on the first day,lost the key to the home,Karen had it sorted within 5 minutes lovely lady. Great base for exploring the surrounding area,drove around Loch Ness, followed the Harry Potter train and had a day on the Isle of Skye. Overall had a great trip and would not hesitate to stay at the home again. Thanks Karen and all the best for the future. Stephen and Hayley.

Für Campingfreunde

Der Wohnraum ist groß und gemütlich, die Küche mit dem nötigsten ausgestattet.Alles war sehr sauber. Leider war kein Toilettenpapier vorhanden. Das 2.Schlafzimmer ist winzig und das kurze , sehr schmale Bett eigentlich nur für ein Kind geeignet; von der Matraze hatte man jede Sprungfeder im Rücken, habe mir eine zusätzliche Decke unter das mitzubringende Laken gelegt. Man hat einen wunderbaren Blick ins Grüne, wohnt aber sehr abgelegen, sodass fußläufig kaum was zu erreichen ist. Für ein paar Tage in der Natur hat es aber ausgereicht.
