What our customers say about their holidays

  We had a very helpful email from the owners the day before we arrived which was very informative and welcome.

  Although we had an enjoyable week at the Doocot and its proximity to to the beach is fantastic - there are some things that need to be addressed for the comfort of future visitors. With a weekly rental of £1k we would have expected a little more and doesn’t stand comparison with the more expensive property we stayed in the week before in the Cairngorms. More wine glasses required - there were 2 - one huge, 1 small. No tea pot. More small tables required in lounge - nowhere to put a mug/glass if using sofa in front of tv apart from on the floor. The TV needs to be properly connected so you can if you wish, watch mainstream tv easily - eg the Scotland v England game last week was inaccessible No visitor book. Presumably it is intended to plaster the wall around the fireplace? The fridge is too small, it will be difficult/impossible for many to access without getting on their hands and knees. It didn’t seem to us to keep things v cold - eg a bottle of wine had to go into the freezer. The property description needs to make it clear that there is no parking immediately by the property- this would be a significant problem for some; as would the very steep stairs. Both would be beyond some people

  The property's well situated with great views.

  Decoration and finish of the property inside leaves alot to be desired, with flaking paint on walls as well as evidence of what looks like mould in the dining room, caused by dampness in wall. Bathroom upstairs decorated in a hurry. Shower screen leaks onto what looks like MDF boarding which has swollen. Heating perfectly adequate with lots of hot water. Blinds in dining room don't shut properly so lack of privacy in this part of the house otherwise pretty good. Good selection of books and game's etc. Sorry to see at least 7 dead millipedes around the accommodation including 2 in the game's drawer !! I would like to note that the interior staircase was difficult for myself as I have mobility problems, I'm pleased to say I managed alright taking extra care. The carpet in the bunk room was stained and has seen better days. Outside area was pretty good. I didn't intend to go in with a crical eye but it could be so much better if issues were addressed and it was given the finish it deserves.

  The cottage was clean and the beds comfortable.

  However the living area lights didn't work as the light bulbs were defunct so we had to change one or two around. There was a good range of crockery but the selection of pans was poor..some without lids and even if only two of you are staying then take a decent larger pan or two with you. The small freezer compartment inside the main body of the fridge was heavily iced up and excess water from the ice dripped onto food stored below. The freezer compartment contained a previous visitor's pizza. A washing machine is provided but no linen basket or wash stand or other drying facility. It really wouldn't be costly to provide both. On a plus, plenty of dishwasher tablets and cleaning materials are provided. The location isn't as attractive as the description might suggest. The outside area is really rather neglected looking. The directions given are of no use but google maps got us there!

  Very quiet despite it being on a working farm.

  On a couple of mornings we noticed sheep being sheared (it looked very interesting indeed), but only when we opened the window for airing. Once closed, we couldn't hear a thing. Very clean, all the necessary things for cleaning provided in the kitchen cupboard and plenty of towels. The kitchen was well fitted as well. I was happy to find a coffee press! Our host provided a variety of tea and coffee sachets and other add ons, which was very thoughtful. The bed was very comfortable, slept like a baby. The only minor thing that could have been better was the shower pressure, although all the other taps were working perfectly. All in all, a very pleasant stay. We would definitely come back and will recommend to our friends willing to visit this beautiful part of Scotland.

  When we arrived after a five hour drive we were astonished to find the cupboards were bare!

  There was half a toilet roll and apart from a welcome pack of crisps wine and some biscuits the cupboards were bare.There was one dishtowel and no cleaning products .The first thing we had to do was find a shop!There was nothing about Cullen or what to do.No information whatsoever,no books ,games etc.First time we have encountered this.We paid £660 for this week as it was a Bank Holiday,(my mistake) although most of the cottages were empty.We were very disappointed as we had to go shopping straight away.We did have a good holiday but disappointed at empty cupboards.
