Tack Bothy Reviews

Mark

We had a fantastic stay at Tack Bothy! Loved the stunning views, the hot tub was a real treatand the BBQ was perfect for relaxing evenings. Access to lovely walks and nearby amenities made it a great escape. Definitely coming back!

George

From the start, the directions were clear and easy to follow. Julia's pre-arrival message was a nice touch, making us feel welcome and well-informed without being overbearing. Dave and Jenny genuinely felt like old friends, their helpfulness and relaxed attitude really stood out. Their knowledge was impressiveand nothing was ever too much trouble. Honestly, best doggie holiday we've had. Thanks a lot!

Alex

This cottage was so charming and comfy, really gave us that homely vibe. Everything we needed was thereand we both left feeling totally relaxed. The hot tub was a highlight! The peaceful surroundings and friendly owner make this place a must-visit again soon.

Emma

The place is really lovely, super peaceful, perfect for a couple of relaxing days. Everything was handled really well!

Emily

Lovely little cottage! It is quite small but has everything you need. It's on a steep hill, so be prepared for that! There's an overflow fridge freezer, so bring whatever you need. A washing machine and drier are available if you need themand the hot tub was simply blissful.

James

Such a beautiful place! We definitely recommend it for anyone looking to unwind and enjoy the scenery.
