• "I book accommodation regularly for hill walking trips around Scotland."

  Tigh Na Sith met our group's needs extremely well. Warm, clean, spacious with high quality specifications throughout. Yes, we all hit our head on the low slung cooker extractor hood and you have a blocked conservatiory gutter and you could do with a new outdoor hose! However, these are tiny issues - we had a great time in what is a lovely comfortable house in a great location.

• "What an excellent place with a store and a hotel bar that does evening meals."

  I'm scottish and have been around that area a few times. As for my guests they are from Essex and we're totally mesmerised with spectacular views and scenery. We all had a lovely time even though it rained and was breezy for a good few days. Not a bad thing kept the midges and horse flies at bay lol. They are all speaking about doing it again next year . The accommodation was perfect for our needs with 8 of us. For a great holiday experience I can highly recommend Tigh Na Sith.

• "We had a really enjoyable week as a family of 6."

  The cottage is spacious and well equipped and so clean. Plenty of games and jigsaws which were appreciated when the weather was bad. Welcome hamper of bread, milk, eggs and biscuits was a lovely touch. Pub at the end of the road has recently reopened and the food was lovely. The village shop is a 10 minute walk from the cottage and is well stocked

• "An outstanding holiday cottage from start to finish!"

  From the moment we arrived (the fresh bread, eggs & milk were gratefully received) to the morning we left, this well-equipped cottaged provided everything we needed and more! Spotlessly clean, comfortable and well-placed for exploring the area, we found the locals to be friendly including the deer who regularly posed for photos! The spacious, enclosed garden was perfect for the dogs. The local shop was well-stocked and we would recommend going to the ‘Jam Jar’ bar/restaurant at the The Aultbea Hotel just along the road. Would also recommend a visit to the Highland Woodturner (friendly and knowledgeable about the area) and the cafe /gift shop Oran Na Mara (check opening times first). Thank you for a wonderful holiday home - much appreciated!

  Thank you for the positive feedback. We are happy that you have enjoyed your holiday Property Owner

• "This is a superb property."

  Comfortable beds and modern and clean wet rooms. The kitchen and utility room are also excellent but we recommend taking your own can opener (did leave a note saying the existing one was useless) and extra pegs (if you are expecting to do washing). We were disappointed by the lack of DVD player having planned to watch one or two family films (not a spoiler though). Stayed with a family of 7 and there was plenty of space. We weren’t getting under each others feet! My personal favourite thing was reading in the conservatory early morning with a brew. The chairs are really comfy and the view wonderful over the garden and hills beyond. The local shop is well stocked and staff very friendly and helpful. There are two fantastic places to eat in walking distance - the Aultbea Hotel on sea front and Oran na Mara. This was our 3rd stay here and we would certainly come again.

  We have replaced the tin openers . Thank you for the feedback Property Owner

• "This property is wonderful."

  The design and layout are fantastic, and the secure wrap around garden is perfect for the dogs. The garden is huge. There has been an addition of outside seating, which is a lovely place to sit at any time of the day. Inside is very spacious, and the kitchen is well designed and has everything you could possibly need. The beds are big and very comfortable, and all the bathrooms are wet rooms finished to a high standard. It was lovely to have bread, milk, and eggs waiting for us on arrival as well. Also, the welcome pack has lots of good tips, take time, and read through it. I do feel special mention has to be made of the level of cleanliness. It was first class. By far and away the cleanest holiday home we have rented, they do a great job here. Finally, i would like to say thank you for the beautiful styling of the house, this is evident throughout. In particular, I absolutely loved looking at all the art in the property, particularly the paintings in the living room and next to the kitchen table, I spent a lot of time looking at them. All in all this is a wonderful house for exploring a lovely part of Scotland. Thank you again and I really hope it would be OK to return.

  Thank you very much for your very positive feedback. I’m so glad that you appreciated the effort that Ferdie and Elanie give to the cleaning and preparation of the house to welcome you. You are very welcome to return to this former family home which has been in my family for more than 50 years Property Owner

• "A lovely little place that has a remarkable amount of space and is well equippes."

  3 bathrooms really make the difference if you have 8 people! Mattresses are a little basic, but they absolutely do the job. Heating system makes noise at night, so had to trip the circuit breakers; owner aware and has had multiple people around to resolve the issue. Still ongoing and only a minor thing overall Kitchen well stocked with crockery etc, but be aware nothing in cupboards from previous guests so bring everything you need. Living area is nice and spacious, with Lazy Boy chairs and the the WiFi is nice and quick. Great selection of classic books if you want to unplug too. Outdoors the beach is close and a brook is through the gate at the bottom of the garden (which is sealed for dogs). Enough to do for a chilled break - Boom Beach, Arctic Convoy Museum and brisk walks beyond the Perfume Studio. The store in Aultbea is better stocked than Gairloch, so don’t travel unnecessarily! Nice farm shop there though, next to the Chinese takeaway. Also, beach in Gairloch by golf club is lovely - perfect for wading and the cafe is fantastic. Decent food and really friendly proprietors. Overall, perfect for a week away with young kids to unwind but still have something simple to do each day.

• "The property was extremely clean, very spacious and really comfortable."

  The kitchen was well equipped. Nice bath towels were provided, as were lovely toiletries. The only issue we had was with the boiler. It was intermittently making an extremely loud noise. The first couple of days, it was quite rare and only during the day, but then the issue also occurred during the night - so loud it would wake us up (puzzling, because it would occur even when nobody was using any hot water or water at all). After a couple of disrupted nights, we eventually phoned the owner, who kindly attended very swiftly and tried his best to fix the issue. Having not been able to, he suggested we turn off the boiler altogether overnight so as not to wake us up. Still, we would happily return and stay at that lovely property.

  I would just ask that a few more cleaning things are supplied, especially if there is an expectation to leave the place cleaned? For example - a mop and washing-up brush/sponge. Surface cleaners were hidden away in the utility room, not under the kitchen sink. Could do with a reading lamp or standing lamp in the living room too! Main lights are very bright. But generally really great place to stay.

• "The cottage was clean, comfortable and well equipped."

  There are some lovely beaches to explore in the area although the beach at Aultbea is very stony. We were lucky to have two good cafes in the area The Perfume Place and Ora ha Mara also North by Northwest in Poolewe for occasional lunches but sadly the two local hotels had closed down so if we wanted to dine out in the evening it was a 24mile round trip and most hotels/restaurants were heavily booked, we only managed one evening meal out and that was a disappointment. The local shop in Aultbea is really well stocked however so we certainly didn’t starve. Sadly whilst the rest of the UK was basking in a rare September heatwave it unfortunately didn’t reach us but as we were a party of six friends who hadn’t met up for about six years we didn’t let that dampen our spirits. It’s such a pity that we weren’t there just a week later as I believe the Aurora Borealis gave a spectacular display in the area, that would really have made our holiday special.

• "The bungalow was ideal for a three generational family group plus dog."

  It was very spacious with a safe wrap around garden. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking and far more roomy and modern than our own houses! One or two little niggles: no spare toilet rolls, very few dishwasher tablets and no washing powder at all. Not always supplied I know, but in such an expensive house...... The other design feature that I found strange was the overhead lighting in the master bedroom. No real bedside lights for late night readers. We went and bought a light to plug in! Otherwise, despite minor quibbles, the house was very comfortable and supplied all our needs. The village shop provided all our food needs, the area is well worth exploring and the history of the wartime Russian fleet in the Loch fascinating. Some beautiful beaches nearby, serious mountains for the mountaineer and tracks for cyclists. Large scale maps are useful for exploring. Not far to Poolewe and Gairloch for more eateries and shops and the Inverewe Gardens. We were very lucky with glorious weather and NO midges!!

  All appliances worked very well and the generous size of the accommodation and the books and games provided meant that you were never bored or short of something to do. The only thing missing was a nice eating place in the village like the hotel which has sadly closed but this is obviously nothing to do with the cottage and how wonderful it was and we found plenty of cafes in the surrounding areas to make up for it. Watching the sunset every evening from the steps beside the hotel is worth the price of the holiday alone. Thank you for a great holiday.

• "While this cottage was well equipped and very well presented, the description on the Sykes website states that there is a hotel/pub nearby."

  This is not the case, since this hotel closed some weeks ago, so there is no facility for an evening meal in the village. The nearest possibility for a meal after six o'clock is either Poolewe (limited), or Gairloch, which is a 25 mile round trip. One of the main reason for booking this property was the proximity and possibility to enjoy an evening meal without having to cook each evening. Because of this, we decided to curtail our holiday, and returned home after four nights of our seven night holiday. We appreciate that the hotel was open when we made our booking some time ago, but feel we should have been informed about such a vital part of our stay. The fact that the website still states: "guests will appreciate the friendly local facilities with a busy hotel", is completely misleading. We would not have booked this holiday had we known about this situation. As it stands, we have paid for a seven day holiday, but only got the benefit of a four day stay before deciding to leave.
