We have booked many self catering properties over the years for our holidays, and without doubt Fir Tree Stables is one of the very best. The location is very quiet, very peaceful, and has wonderful views. The cottage is very well maintained, and tastefully decorated, and very comfortable, and clean. Everything needed is provided, and everything works as it should. Our hosts were very warm, friendly and welcoming, and if we are visiting the area again we would book Fir Tree Stables again without a moments hesitation.

The beds were comfortable and gave us a good sleep. The lodge is ideally situated for touring the area and has fabulous views. Although we didnât use it much due to the poor weather, it would have been nice to have a bit grass.
