The Old Laundry exceeded our expectations. Great advice when booking & popping round to make sure everything was OK. Even put a post under the gate to make sure dogs couldn't escape the garden. The cottage was much bigger than it looks on photo, clean & well equipped. The wildlife did not disappoint. We are not the type of people that return to holiday accommodation but we would on this occasion.
This is our second Time at The Old Post Office and it won't be our last. The area is outstanding in beauty and wildlife with walks on the doorstep. The cottage has everything you need, was clean and tidy with a lovely comfy bed. Beatrice checks in to ensure everything is fine so you then have a contact throughout your stay. We now have a rescue working cocker dog and the garden was perfect for him, enclosed with catches on the gates, so great for dogs. We will not stay anywhere else now when visiting this area other than the estate.
It remains wonderful to come “home” after so many times. The cottage is comfortable and cozy. Everything you could possibly need is there. The surroundings are breathtaking. Thanks to the whole team, we had another fantastic holiday.
Every year its different and every year we see new things do other stuff!! Mum, myself and our dogs already start looking foreward to next year when we drive off leaving after the week we were there. We're never bored its our home away from home exceot we listen to no radio or tv.(by choice as both are available in the cottage) We do have our own music, we read in the evening with the fire on in the sitting room. Talk as we lead busy lives after half a day we are totally relaxed two extreme happy dogs and once they are happy so are we! We walk a lot with our dogs, we do go to House of Bruar, t...more
Loved our stay here for five nights. Just some minor suggestions to make the experience even better: (1) please have a selection of pillow heights for those who prefer lower pillows; (2) please use thinner duvets in the spring months or at least have the option. The cottage is very well heated so a thick winter duvet is very hot in the springtime; and (3) water pressure in the showers is very low and there is a faint septic tank smell from the bathroom on the hallway so the cottage should be aired before occupation. Other than that we had a wonderful stay!
We had a nice stay here, with a sprinkling of snow which was very pretty. It did feel quite chilly at times and appreciated the logs to keep the living room warm. Whilst we felt the cottage was comfortable on the whole, we did feel both bathrooms are overdue full renovations. We also struggled to get enough hot water for showers for the four of us, even splitting these over morning and evening and using the booster which wasn’t ideal. We loved the view though, which really was spectacular with Schiehallion covered in snow and the beds were super comfortable. Our wee dog enjoyed running around ...more
Our second stay in a Dunalastair property and it did not disappoint. Peace and quiet, cozy and comfortable with everything we needed for a lovely week. A sweet little cottage with peace of mind from fully enclosed garden for the dogs to sniff around. Beautiful views and abundant wild life. We’ve already booked our next two cottages on the estate for next year and can’t wait to return.
We had a lovely stay at the Rose cottage. We loved the walks in the woods nearby. One of the family pointed us towards 2 ospreys nesting in a tall tree. The cottage was well equipped and spacious. A wood stove kept us cosy on the 1 day the rain kept us in. There was lots of information provided which allowed us make the most of our stay. The amount of wildlife in the area was impressive
This has to be the best managed holiday cottage we have ever stayed in and we have stayed at quite a few in various parts of the country (UK). On arrival my wife was particularly impressed with the cleanliness throughout. The information provided was second to none and covered everything you could possibly need to know to get the best out of your stay. The cottage worked perfectly for us and our 2 dogs. It was comfortable and homely and I can't think of anything we would change. A Pine Martin or possibly more than one was a regular visitor to a feeder on a tree just outside the enclosed part o...more
