We had a lovely stay at Benmore Stable. The house is situated in beautiful surroundings, right in the middle of nature. Don't expect a supermarket or café within walking distance, but do expect the most beautiful walk right on your doorstep and silence all around you. We were made to feel very welcome and warmly received by the owners; the cottage was very clean, well-equipped, and provided with every convenience.
