Tack Bothy Reviews

James

It was a wonderful cozy cottage very homie feel and had everything we needed we both came back both feeling refresh and unstressed loved the hot tub the surroundings was so peaceful the owner was so lovely and welcoming definitely go back in the near future

Stephen

Beautiful location, extremely isolated apart from cottage next door, but not overlooked at all. It is very ' snug ' , think large camper van , but it is perfectly adequate for 2. The owner is very welcoming and I felt we could have asked for anything if we felt it was needed. Great for dogs, with their own secure field on site. Bring a blanket or sRead moreoft bed , there is certainly no room for a crate. Very small fridge that would not take a 4 pint bottle, but there is an overflow freezer and fridge Hide

Cherry

Fantastic place to stay. Perfect views and a comfy cosy place to watch the world go by. Caroline was amazing and took care of all our needs, especially with a very lively and reactive pup, she made our stay so much nicer. Tack Bothy is very small but the views more than made up for that and the place was clean and well equipped. I would definitely Read morerecommend this place to anyone looking to relax and enjoy the scenery. Hide

Elizabeth

Quaint is how I would describe. One room that has a bed,kitchen area and small table for eating. Separate bathroom. Electric table top hob , microwave and small fridge. Extra space available in fridge freeze in the pump house.outside a small patio with hot tub. Large garden round along side a stream. Beautiful scenery. Extra bonus is the enclosure across from your accommodation, set up do you can excise your dog safely. Hostess Caroline explained everything and was really helpful.

Sharon

Returned to the Bothy for a 2nd weeks holiday, had a good a time as we did on our first visit, Caroline was there to meet us and seemed really pleased to see us and our 2dogs, Bothy was as we remembered with a few little improvements ie new larger and smart TV, table and chairs and new oven/microwave.the hot tub was excellent as always, the surroun ding area delightful . We will be back Mick and Sharon

Philip

Lovely cottage, although it was small & cosy it was perfect for us! Great location for peace and quiet and local walks on the door step. Caroline the owner greeted us on arrival and departure which was a nice touch along with the bottle of fizz!

Thomas

What a lovely little place Caroline and Dave couldnt have been more welcoming as hosts. Caroline gave us a friendly welcome and some really great tips throughout our stay. The place has everything you need plus some really great walks around the local area. Our dog loved the fenced garden and the hot tub was a big positive for us. The remote locati on gave us the freedom and relaxation that we were after. We will definitely be back!

Sabrina

We had a fantastic time, from the moment we got there the hosts were delightful! The hot tub was lovely and the dog proof area was perfect for our dog to let off some steam! The decor was perfect for the size of the cabin and the bed super comfy, great to get into after a day in the countryside.

Nicky

Absolutely amazing! Great hosts and the location is beautiful. We will definitely be back!

Michael

Great, dog-friendly mini break. Bothy was very cosy and easy to keep warm in the colder months. Make sure you bring a torch as it is very dark. Could see the milky way from the hot tub one night! Can comfortably let the dog roam in the garden and there is also a dog exercise field you can use. Caroline was a friendly, welcoming host who I'm sure wo uld accommodate any request you might have. 10/10

We had a brilliant time, Caroline was a brilliant host, we will definitely be visiting again. In the middle of nowhere so it's lovely and peaceful, tack bothy had everything we needed and more! Would definitely recommend!

This place was incredible! And the little extra touches were much appreciated. Perfect get away with dogs! Nothing was too much trouble, anyone looking to book should not hesitate, just bare in mind that this is the sort of place that you wouldn't leave for your stay or be prepared to drive

Rachael

Absolutely fantastic. Caroline and Jenny are fantastic hosts. The bothy was small but perfect, they thought of everything (and the bottle of prosecco was a lovely touch!). Amazing views and walks and it really helped for a mental health reset. I think the dog loved it more than we did! I can't thank the owners enough.

Linda

Perfect in every way , we couldnt have asked for more .

Elaine

We enjoyed our stay at Tach Bothy, especially our Rottie Hades who loved the secure garden and field to have a run in, and the comfy bed he slept in, this was our only downside as we hadn't factored in that two large adults (me with some physical limitations) and our 40kg Rottie may not encourage a good sleep in such a cute small place! Always lear ning and that was my mistake. Hot tub was amazing, view incredible. Excellent advice to shop before arriving and lovely welcome, great place to stay!

Adrian

Great stay and was made to feel very welcome. We will be back again ! Beautiful place !!

Claire-Louise

We had a lovely stay here, accommodation was cosy and comfy. The hot tub was perfectly positioned to watch the sun set and had privacy from the cottage next door. A bottle of prosecco and milk was a lovely touch on arrival. There were games, DVDs and books that could be borrowed for a lazy day along with an information folder with a couple of local walks and sites to go and visit. The owner was lovely and very accommodating. We would definitely recommend staying here.

Stephanie

The cottage was lovely and comfortable and the views spectacular. Highly recommend this cottage. The hot tub was amazing and the walks nearby.

Glen

Karen

We've just returned from a Lovely peaceful and relaxing break at the Tack Bothy cottage. The views from the garden and hot tub were amazing.. The cottage was small but had everything you needed.. Special thanks to Caroline for making us all feel so welcome. Meg our dog loved the garden and the walks in the surrounding area. Hopefully we will return very soon

The accommodation and facilities were perfect. The Prosecco and milk for when we arrived were a lovely touch. Sitting in the Hot tub you have a stunning view of the landscape and the wildlife around. Would highly recommend for an escape from work and the bustle of city life.

Kiffy

We had the most amazing stay at Tack Bothy with our 2 dogs! The location was perfect and just what we were looking for, super quiet and the cottage had everything we needed. Caroline and Jenny were always on hand if we needed anything and gave great suggestions of places to visit and pubs to go to. Our dogs had a wonderful time playing in the garde n and exploring in the stream. We would highly recommend Tack Bothy to anyone looking for a countryside escape.

Sharon

Tack bothy is small but the views are amazing and the added bonus is the hot tub. The down side is the property next door only as a 3ft picket fence so if you have a reactive dog its not suitable especially if reactive dog or dogs are next door.

Helen

Fantastic holiday. Amazing location...what could be better than the amazing views??....Oh yes- those amazing views from in the fabulous hot tub!!! Away from all hustle & bustle, walks from the door, wonderful wildlife all around and such peace. Very calming & a real retreat. Caroline made us so welcome & on hand if needed anything at all. Definitel y recommend.

Susan

The bothy is small but the space is well used. It's a quirky little place but not suitable for people with physical disabilities. It was clean and nicely presented and the hot tub was clean and hot indeed. The view is wonderful and full of flora and fauna. Would definitely return (I don't say that very often). Owners and management were helpful and friendly. It's a fantastic place for our furry babies too.

Carl

Lovely, peaceful, relaxing break. Ideal for one or two people with freedom for dogs to run if you have them. Tranquil setting with superb views and lots of idyllic walks. The owners go the extra mile with lots of information on hand and plenty of additional homely comforts - thanks especially to Caroline. Would recommend to anyone and we are alread y looking to book for next year.

Dionne

Perfect. Just what we needed for a relaxing long weekend. Having a hot tub was fab. The views were breathtaking.

Very dog friendly we will be back!
