Fabulous house, well equipped in beautiful surroundings and exceptionally clean!! ##### Nicola Burns ### 8/10 Good #### Christine F. 4 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lochenkit Farmhouse The farmhouse is wonderful and beautifully furnished. The Aga ensured the kitchen area was always warm. The surrounding countryside was very peaceful with estate walks directly from the house. Our dogs were welcome and secure. But unfortunately the 1.5 mile estate access track requires much attention as it was very rough heavily potholed, more suitable for a vehicle with larger wheels. ##### Christine F. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Teresa M. 6 Jul 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lovely house and views We loved this house - a lot of time and effort must have been spent on it at one time but it’s now in need of a bit of tlc. The views are spectacular but the road up to the house from the main road leaves a lot to be desired. Towards the end of our week there was a problem with the water supply so we had to use bottled water for drinking. Nevertheless this is a great holiday house ##### Teresa M.

Lovely property, spacious and characterful. Comfy beds. Spotlessly clean, well equipped, beautiful views. Dodgy mobile reception for some, although no problems with my Vodafone service. Good walks from the door, big garden for dog. Perhaps log burner would be nice and improved approach road.
