Old friends

We had a great stay at Heatherbank. The cottage is big and spacious, and the living room area is great with a small bar which was great. The outdoor area was great as well, large hot tub and loads of places to sit with 3 or 4 lovely fire pits. The only draw back were the midges, did put us off sitting outside and using the hot tub. But overall we had a great weekend in the Heatherbank cottage.

Short break in garelochhead

The house, owner and location were all lovely but unfortunately the hot tub wasn’t cleaned (main reason for our booking) and the access track (which was tiny with no passing places) was also being dug up to install a new water pipe so it wasn’t peaceful at all. We left early due to noise, Illness and hot tub being unusable.
