Great stay!

Very fine place, we would have liked to stay for a few time longer. In that case, we would have liked a little bit more equipment in the kitchen, I. e a real table and chairs.

Perfect Family Getaway in the Far North!

Fantastic holiday home! It had everything we needed, even to keep the kids (8 and 12) entertained on a rainy day. The attention to detail was impressive, making it super comfortable and stress-free. A perfect spot if you’re visiting the far, far north – highly recommend!

We loved staying here. The location was great, nice and peaceful with some lovely beaches nearby. Only a short drive away from shops with some easy dinner options. The bach was clean and tidy and the beds were nice and comfy. If we're up this way in the future, we'll definitely stay here again!

A beautiful spot who would have known. So glad it was the holidays with accommodation being so hard to get at such short notice but we were so lucky to secure this little hide away with such a terrific hostess by the name of Kirsty. Thank you so much for going to all the effort to make us feel so welcome and helping us out of an awkward predicament. Highly recommend not only the accommodation and facilities but wholeheartedly the best of hosts. Cheers Kirsty.
