Perfect for a group of bikers doing the nc500 and looking for some
Home comforts for a night.
Nothing! It was exactly what we were looking for

Property is close to the ferry at Scrabster and provided a place for myself and three others to stay comfortably.
The WiFi did not work, nor did the toaster. It would have been good to have a pot to make coffee in. There was no bin in the bathroom.
10.0
Roomy and well-equipped - plenty of space for our party. Short drive to town and shops
nothing to say!
5.0
The location and size of the property was ideal and could sleep up to 6 people. The property had a large drive, which was great.
The chair legs in the conservatory were broken.
The bottom oven didn't work.
The dishes weren't clean.
The bed springs were worn.
The bed sheets had small holes in them and may not have been cleaned before our arrival.
With all the problems above, we were expected to thoroughly clean our dishes after use and organise the sheets for the cleaners even though this wasn't done for us.

Clean and spacious.
The bedding. It would make a big difference to the stay if an investment was made into new (and more) pillows, sheets, quilts and quilt covers. A hand rail for the stairs would also be helpful (my elderly mum was with us).

Clean and clear instructions
All good
8.0
Well renovated property with 3 good size double rooms. Good communication from the owner for our short stay and lovely to have access to tea, coffee and sugar plus bathroom supplies.
Only 5 dining chairs in the conservatory and lounge could have done with an additional seat use the window for groups. We managed without a problem just had to move some chairs about.
5.0
Good location close to the town. Spacious.
Extremely dirty. Hair on the bed and holes in pillowcases. Had to message owner to change bedding. Crumbs in cutlery drawer. Had to wash plates, cups etc before using them because they were dirty. Toaster full of crumbs. Piles of dust and dead flies in corners. Stairs hadn't seen a vacuum cleaner. Scuff marks all up the walls. Everything was just disappointing, no love or care in the place at all.
5.0
Very spacious house, nicely renovated and with good potential but absolutely unlovingly decorated and furnished, which reflects the rather rude way of communication by the hostess. First up you get threatened to be fined 50£ if not out by 10am sharp on the day of departure. Then you receive instructions on how to strip the beds and bag all towels and linens as Covid-precaution while the bedsheets are of the cheapest possible polyester which can only be washed at 40° (which is not sufficient to kill off germs). Ironing would help, but that seems to have been too much trouble, the sheets were crumpled.
The overall cleanliness is good, the main surfaces appear clean but the whole house could do with a thorough cleaning and dusting.
The kitchen is very big with lots of empty cabinets and an fantastic gas range. Unfortunately, the pans and utensils to cook accordingly are missing. The 2-slice-toaster is scorched but works fine. There‘s a huge fridge/freezer.
There was no hot water upon arrived, the boiler was completely shut off.
The spacious livingroom sits maximum 4 people, however there‘s no coffeetable.
The dining room is located in a wintergarden which is lovely.
All in all this could easily be made a gem but would need some TLC.

Spacious. Conservatory was lovely setting for dinner.
Two pillowcases were torn.
Booking was for 6 but there were only 5 dining chairs.
Living room lacked seating.
No corkscrew!

Property was very clean, very modern, a great kitchen.
Could not find any rubbish cans in the house or paper towels.
8.0
Modern, comfortable house with everything you need. Homely feel, big kitchen and good sized bedrooms. Modern bathroom with towels provided and comfortable beds. Off road parking available for up to 3 cars.
It would have been useful to have a 6th chair at the dining table given the 3 double rooms, but it wasn't a major issue.
8.0
Location is great.
We enjoyed our stay and were generally very happy with the facilities provided with some minor exceptions.
There is only seating for 4 in the lounge although the property is listed for up to 6.
There was no kitchen bin and only 1 tea towel was provided.
Towels were on the small side

The house was immaculate and the facilities excellent. Our host Katie was very helpful and the instructions were very clear. Would thoroughly recommend to anyone looking to stay in or around Thurso.
7.0
beautiful location, size of the house and garden, modern design
for this price I would expect it to be a bit cleaner (e.g. found some crumbs on the chairs and table) and kitchen could have more pots.

We stayed here for three nights on our tour round the NC500 and found it a great place to stay , the location was perfect with supermarket close buy and it was only 5mins by car to the ferry terminal for our trip to Orkney . The house is nice and clean with very comfortable beds . Katie is a lovely host with good communication about your stay . Would stay here again . Highly recommend

Just ... thank you

Location was perfect for what we needed. Spacious house well decorated.
Bathrooms weren’t very clean, particularly the toilets. Very basic - no bin or bin bags available. Limited cleaning equipment - basic clothes and dish towels would be good. No hand towel in bathrooms. Hot water didn’t work although this was rectified by owner (thankfully) but meant we were running 30 mins late. Ironing sheets would make a nicer appearance to bedrooms.

Reasonably priced and had the necessities. Nearby co-op to buy food to make dinner.
The check in email was sent the morning of our check-in and we were not on WiFi at that time so had to call the owner from a neighbor’s phone( he was very kind)?to get the lock box code to get the keys. The owner did meet us to get the keys and once we were in WiFi in the house, we received the email with all the info. A problem, but owner helped us solve it very quickly.

It's a great house in a good location. 10 mins walk into town. 5 mins drive to the ferry terminal. Cleanliness is excellent. Heater timer might need adjusting as it was cold when we got in but it warms up quick. Plenty of good instructions in the welcome pack. Great parking. Quiet location.
Only minor negative, and it's a personal thing, the beds were a bit soft for us. But it didn't really inconvenience us. Otherwise, worth what we paid. Thanks.
