Customer Reviews of Siobhan Crofters Cottage near Dornie, Sleeps 4
1st comment: This was a lovely cottage in a stunning location. The open fired heating was warm and cosy, even though we had some pretty awful weather - we both loved it. The bathroom is a bit of a challenge - especially as my partner is 6’2" - but understandable with the architecture of the house. Really, really, really get a couch to snuggle on - then even when the weather is rubbish you can really enjoy this peaceful place. Beautifully clean too. Oct 2011.
2nd comment: Its the tenth year in which we stayed in the cottage. June 2011.
3rd comment: Great little cottage in good location - had a really enjoyable (and sunny!) holiday. April 2011.
4th comment: The situation. It was magical. Well equipped, recently refurbished. Sept 2010.
5th comment: Liked the open plan downstairs; this made the property large & spacious. If it had been seperate rooms to would have seemed small & pokey. July 2010.
