  - the stay was fine.

  It was the accusations after. I paid a good amount of money to rent this property for the week and it was a busy stay. I took insurance out as when we stayed here before I knew glasses were broken when being placed in the sink. - we cleaned stripped the beds and towels and put them in the provided bag as asked. - accused of leaving a soaking wet towel that COULD of done damage to drawers, there was no damage. - the complaints from the cleaner after the stay were ridiculous. It was normal cleaning things that I may have missed but I was accused of things that weren’t true. The cleaner had to do her job yet complained about it. I was accused of breaking the blind but the roller had come off and I explained I did not want to make it worst and it was an easy fix. I was also accused of breaking the freezer which was untrue. I was accused of stealing glasses not asked about them accused. - I was accused of leaving rubbish across the garden, this did not happen. - accused of leaving a residue of powder on the coffee table - it was sand from shells and crystals my child had collected from the beach. - I asked my teenager to take the recycling out and he put it in the wrong bin, the cleaner made a complaint about this. - overall the stay was good but the attitude from the cleaner and owners was unacceptable. I was basically accused of trashing the place and ruining new bedding and I asked for photos and the tiny spot of a mark was sent to me from accidental spilt drink - again I had insurance for this.

  Enjoyed our stay, comfortable; bed and lots of equipment in the kitchen and also supplies of food and drink much appreciated.

  The landlord,(Sean) was happy to come round and teach us how to use the gas oven. Good WIFI, phone signal a bity iffy at times. Some suggestions/quibbles. Could do with a doormat at the back and front doors. Pan brushes would also help. As with some loft conversions. mine included, there can be a problem with people not seeing the bit of wall that hangs down in to the bedroom and forgetting to duck as I did, with painful consequences. I have done it myself in my own home and there is no easy answer. The inward opening doors left the bathroom and upstairs bedroom a bit cramped but you can't do much about that. There was slight shortage of hot water at time, just enough for a bath, but only just. The stairs were a bit narrow, steep and also winding at the bottom. I am quite fit and that didn't affect me but have been tricky for an eighty something. Otherwise pleasant stay.

  Simply outstanding.

  From the safe car parking area next to your cottage, to the enclosed large communal garden to the idyllic location of the cottages - this has it is all. The cottage itself (Birch) was very clean, comfortable and well stocked with everything you’d need. The smart tv allows Netflix and Prime log ons, which you can then view from the comfortable couch after a day’s walking in the hills. Beds are superb and are clearly very expensive and luxurious leading to a superb night’s sleep. The owners Adam and Leanne are on hand should you need any advice or guidance on the area or your cottage. The whole set up and organisation when you’re there is one of a “safe space” and very comfortable. The location allows travel and visits to lots in the Cairngorms and is a super base. Thoroughly recommended.

  We had a lovely relaxing week at 5 Distillery Cottage .

  The Cottage was cosy and comfortable with everything you needed in it. The welcome pack was extremely generous and Eddie our dog enjoyed his treats , the garden was secure and ideal for him , there are some lovely coastal walks right from your door step , Whitehill and Banff which are in walking distance or a few minutes drive away have everything you need from Shops , pubs or take always, however you you wish to stay in and cook you will not be disappointed with the well equipped kitchen We will definitely be returning despite the 8 hours travel , which we made part of the holiday as the scenery was spectacular Sean and Victoria texted us and made sure that we had everything we needed and we could contact them them if we had any issues I would highly recommend this Cottage Roger, Liz and Eddie

  What a find!

  A beautiful well appointed and comfortable property my wife and our friends and I can't recommend it enough. It's an absolutely lovely place to stay. It is like being at home, The owners have thought about every comfort you may need and more. The kitchen, bathrooms utility, sitting room furnishings are all fitted out to a very high standard. With very comfortable beds, modern bathroom, powerful hot shower. Its location means you don't have to travel far to visit North Uist's wonderful beaches and other parts of North and South Uist. Just a perfect location for a peaceful holiday, be it relaxing or active. It's the most perfect house in every way.
