  • "Very happy with our holiday accommodation."

    It’s in the heart of Banff and near to all amenities. The decor in the apartment is beautiful with lovely display of art pieces throughout. Loved the wood burner in the lounge and used it every evening. So cosy! Comfy beds and bed linen. Plentiful supply of towels. The kitchen is well equipped and a very spacious dining room. Would highly recommend this holiday accommodation.
