Lovely bothy, clean but no...

Liked: It was clean, comfortable and close to amenities. Hot tub was clean and everything was supplied
Disliked: The maintenance man came out and just came to our bothy without knocking on our door to say he was checking our hot tub on the first day. The second day we had to check out by 10am so we went in the hot tub from 8-9am. As we got out the maintenance man just entered our area and started cleaning out the hot tub with pipes everywhere and therefore we couldn’t sit outside and have our morning coffee as we nearly tripped over the pipes. I phoned down to complain and the manager stated he would talk to me when I went to hand in the keys. When I arrived there was a young girl on the desk who was very pleasant and the manager had disappeared so she found another manager who apologised. Stated he was sorry and we could have a complimentary breakfast and a free night stay to say sorry but I have had no email to offer this. As we were sitting with our breakfast the maintenance man came to the reception so there was no great rush to get the hot tub done. It spoiled what should have been a nice relaxing time away instead we were rushed out. Disappointed

Private, beautiful and I would...

Liked: Clean, good amenities, lovely location, private. A double edged sword for this one - hot tub was very clean and not hugely chlorinated - most likely due to them cleaning it so regularly.
Disliked: The hot tub was still cold when we checked in because it’s emptied and cleaned thoroughly, but it meant we couldn’t use it until 10pm at night, then you aren’t allowed to use it on the morning you leave because it’s emptied and cleaned for the next person early. It meant that we only got to use it for a short time and very late at night. As I said though, double edge sword as it was great as it was so clean but didn’t get that much use as was at a wedding during the day.

Nice lodge but take extra...

Liked: Location and hot tub
Disliked: No robes. No mat at door so floor got soaking after heavy rain and hot tub. Minimal towels for showering and hot tub. Asked for more but told it would be an extra charge. Hob didn’t work.
