"We were looking to disconnect from the worries of the world, to slow down our lives, and to still our hearts and minds. The cottage was the perfect place for this, and was exactly as advertised. We took a daily hike/walk at different nearby beaches, parks, or forests. We mostly prepared our own food (2 meals in Bettyhill), and we reveled in the quiet. "

"I enjoyed staying there. It's in a quiet area just as you leave the village. No problems at all."

"We had a great bank holiday weekend. Lovely place with a great location!"

"I loved the remoteness of this wee cottage. If you’re looking for somewhere quiet, with lots of lovely walks, then this is ideal. The cottage is powered by a generator, which you can hear but soon get used to. Make sure you bring everything you need, it’s a fair trek to the nearest shop! My dog ran around the forest all day long and slept all night and I chilled out with a glass or two of wine. I hope to visit again in the not too distant future."

"On our arrival the farmhouse was clean spacious and the owners had been in and ensured that the house was also warm and cosy for our arrival. The house had everything that you could possibly need for your stay. We had an enjoyable time. If you are looking for a quiet getaway this is the place for you. If you are looking to visit other areas you will need a car."

"Great property"

"Beautiful location, sunrises & views were breathtaking. Lucky enough to watch a dolphin & calf playing in the bay one day as well as lots of sea birds including the Gannets diving for their catch. Could be absolutely perfect but was slightly let down by cleanliness of the property & no double bed in any of the bedrooms. Despite that would definitely recommend & would stay again if holidaying in the area."

"Property is conveniently situated with spectacular views overlooking Tongue bay. Orkney and on really clear day Shetland as well. Hosts are very welcoming and the welcome hamper is a nice touch (very good coffee). All in all a great time was had by ourselves."

"Fabulous property, beautiful location and plenty of fresh air and wellbeing walks. Scenery stunning. Cottage incredibly cosy, and lovely to return to every evening. Everything we needed was provided. "

"A truly memorable stay. A charming cottage in a beautiful location. ."

"The property was extremely well equipped and a basket of treats, fresh coffee and cleaning equipment were provided. Excellent position and stunning views from front windows. The top of the stairs is very near to the bedroom door so care required when coming out of bedroom. Highly recommend. "

"Such a stunning location to stay. Amazing scenery all around. The Cottage was lovely, clean and considering the current situation, well stocked. Would definitely recommend."
