Cottage and piano
What an unusual experience to stay in such a remote place. Our greatest pleasures were sitting on the outside bench watching life go by and all the remote walks we took. Plus…. the amazing piano! I played each morning to my heart’s content. Such a unique experience for a traveler to have music be part of their journey. Thank you Daisy. I’d love to meet you one day. Judith and Stephen

We were so smitten with this wonderful cottage. Daisy had everything so well outfitted and comfortable. Our beds were warm and cozy. The location was beautiful and we walked everywhere and every direction. We would love to be able to spend more time here again one day. Thank you Daisy!

Remote Getaway
We had a wonderful stay at Daisy's cottage. It was cozy and comfortable with beautiful views and access to stunning hikes (Old Man of Stoer, the local beaches). Daisy was always available for questions or tips during our stay. The highlight of our stay was the trip to Handa Island (the drive along the single-track coastal road was a little harrowing; I would recommend driving through Lochinver) and taking a boat excursion to see the beaches and a seal colony from the perspective of the water. We even took a quick swim in the North Sea! Highly recommend this beautiful, well-appointed cottage, particularly if you're looking to get away from the rhythms of daily life and work. Thank you, Daisy!

Cried when we left..
We have just returned from this magical place ... We have had the quietest, most relaxing week..eating lovely food and walking in nature..beaches and mountain views to die for. The location is very remote, a good 30 minute drive to find petrol so pre planning your supplies of food and a full tank is a must. The house is so well thought out, everything you could need, a stunning view and very well apointed, warm and cosy. Daisy our host could not have been more helpful. We loved it so much we did not want to leave. The wifi works well enough that the kids could play they're games when we were home. And we were still able to work a little, as we both run buisnesses. Morning coffe overlooking the view out on the bench is a real 'must'. We cant reccomend this place enough and will return .
