⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Our stay at the Claymore and Thistle Cottages was everything we could have hoped for. Everything was clean and perfectly kept. We cooked every night and even to pots and pans were top notch. There was so much for the kids to do with the pools, games, and hidden room. The adults enjoyed the game tables.
There was lots of room for everyone to have their own space when needed. And our hosts Nat, Tyann,and Adrian were amazing. I would definitely rent from them again and highly recommend working with them.
