| Cottage Review:
We have stayed at Apple House for 3 years, and I think it gets better and better. Everything about is perfect. There is everything you could possible want in the cottage and more. It is very clean on arrival and there are lovely touches like a bottle of wine,sweets and this year a punnet of local strawberries. It is very quiet and super views. Close to shops and Restaurants.

| Cottage Review:
Beautiful cottage with stunning views, nice area, stunning bedrooms with the most comfy beds and bedding! enjoyed our stay. dishwasher did not work, but to be fair we didn't realise this until the last day so I am sure if we had realised earlier something would have been done about it. Didn't find the gas bill too bad, £28 for the week and we had it on regularly. All in all would go back if we were up that way again. |

| Cottage Review:
The facilities at Apple House were exceptionally good, and the attitude towards saving the planet were in place but not obtrusive. The welcome we received for a 2 night stay could not be bettered, and we all wished we had longer time available. We would recommend this house and its owners to everyone planning to spend time in the area. The facilities were modern and everything one could wish for to make a holiday accommodation more like home. John & Margaret Balls et al |

| Cottage Review:
un très joli logement, très agréable, cosy et parfaitement équipé jusque dans les moindres détails. De plus, il est très bien situé pour visiter les incontournables de l'Ecosse. Une des meilleures locations que nous ayons trouvées depuis plus de 20 ans que nous voyageons en Ecosse. Il est également très agréable de profiter du spa et de la salle de fitness du village voisin gratuitement. |
