Empfehlung
Das haus liegt sehr ruhig auf einem Bauernhof. So richtige ländliche idylle kommt aufgrund des steinbruchs direkt neben dem bauernhof aber nicht auf. Die lage ist sehr isoliert und zum nächsten supermarkt ist es schon ein Stück. Dafür hat man die meiste Zeit seine ruhe.
Das haus war sauber geputzt. Nur der staubsauger, um selber zwischendrin mal sauber zu machen roch sehr muffelig und der staubbeutel war voll.
Der ofen und der herd funktionieren mit gas. Bei uns hat der zünder nicht funktioniert (da ich nur ein paar mal mit gas gekocht habe will ich nicht ausschließlich das es ein userfehler war). Mit nem Feuerzeug war das Problem aber schnell gelöst.
Wenn wir das richtig verstanden haben, hat das haus keine Heizung außer den kamin im Wohnzimmer. Dafür gibt es in den betten heizdecken. Für uns deshalb in Ordnung.
Gemessen am preis war es eine der besten Unterkünfte während unserer schottlandreise.
