Perfect quiet location
Janet was perfect for managing our booking and stay in Nildottie. We enjoyed our time as a family kayaking on the river and viewing the stars, a short distance from the property. The property is full of al appliances and applications. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Thankyou!

Very restful
We had a three night stay over nye and it was just perfect. Good facilities and environment. We’ll be back in cooler months so we can enjoy the fire pit. Highly recommend Black Cat Cottage.

Oh so quiet and relaxing
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, we could view the stars from the property and it was very quiet and relaxing. The kitchen was extremely well stocked and a joy to make meals in. Shower was good, tv and wifi were a bonus. The bed in the main room was really comfortable and the blackout curtains much appreciated for our vacation sleep-in. Thank you Toddy! :)
