GUEST REVIEW

My family and I had a lovely time at Garrique!We stayed in the middle of February and the house was warm and cosy throughout. The owners had thought of everything, and we weren't missing anything during our stay.We used the lovely family/dining room/kitchen during the day, then retired into the cosy snug (with the best views!) in the evening with the log burner (and a nice glass of Prosecco!). It was just the three of us, and our dog, but there's plenty of room for a lot more people.We weren't far away from Edinburgh, which was a great day out, and we visited Loch Lomond for an awesome boat trip. There's plenty to do and see, including the amazing Stirling Castle that's nearby, and there's lots to climb if you like sort of thing! I'd definitely recommend Garrique for a wonderful Scottish adventure, and I'm sure we'll be back!"
