Nice spot. Perfect for exploring the nth east coast of Scotland. Comfortable albeit beds on small side. ##### Laura Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2021 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 18 Aug 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Cottage was very comfortable and well equipped. Perfect for relaxing. Beds great. all spotlessly clean. Location not perfect though. Although it has a lovely sea view as indicated there was no access down to the beach, which we had hoped might be the case. Also, although in close proximity to the village of Helmsdale, walking not possible due to no pavement on a very busy road. Advised by local people not to attempt as very dangerous. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2021 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### MARIA 12 Sept 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### Highland Staycation On arrival keys avaiable .Parking right outside door fresh clean towels and bedding .Beds very comfortable. Fully fitted kitchen .Shower great toiletries available for use .View superb .Small playpark nearby if you have children . Only 2 miles outside Helmsdale would recommend the Mariner Fish Bar large portions .Also Bannockburn Inn excellent food .
