We will be back and can't wait! ##### Dana T. Stayed 6 nights in Jun 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Randy S. 2 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Excellent! The home and grounds are absolutely beautiful. The home was very clean and well appointed, having everything we needed. Sally, the owner/host is the kindest person who really looked after us. She provided us with contacts for drivers, tour guides, and even a chef. She even made dining reservations for us. I had asked for a recommendation for bakery where I could order a special occasion cake. She gave a couple options, and then picked up my order for me. Her attention to detail is superb and she went above and beyond in so many ways. We would definitely stay there again if we are ever back in Scotland. ##### Randy S. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2024
