This trip involves alot of moving each day to a new place. When we arrived here, alone with the view, the sheep, the loch and the windmills, we wished we had just spent a week at the Rymmon. Adorable trailerhome with every last detail, clean, roomy enough and relaxing. (You don't notice the house behind the hill:)

The property is in an excellent location. We were very impressed with the unit, it had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. There was a very nice restaurant right across the road. We were a bit surprised at how far the ferry terminal was from the room. From google maps it looked like a 7 minute walk, but would have been at least 20-25 min, so be sure to take the bus from the terminal. Being a bit technically challenged had a bit of trouble figuring out the washer/dryer, but once we got that figured out it was so nice to get some clothes cleaned.

The accommodation was cosy, quiet, well equipped, tidy and the kitchen stocked with some milk and some food was much appreciated. Check-in was very easy and the location of the place was ideal with plenty of near-by parking. The host was helpful, friendly and responded very quickly to any queries.

Self catering. We were warmly welcomed and immediately felt at home. Shona had left us a welcome tray and milk and eggs as well as fresh flowers. The cottage was very cosy and well furnished. It contained everything we needed. We have rented holiday cottages often in the past and Bachylis is one that we particularly enjoyed. . .
