Ein sehr erholsamer Aufenthalt, bei dem wir uns in jeder Hinsicht bestens aufgehoben fühlten.

Louise und Martyn sind sehr aufmerksame herzliche und großzügige Gastgeber. Das Frühstück war sehr reichhaltig mit vielen Spezialitäten und mit viel Liebe homemade zubereitet. Das Zimmer war sehr geschmackvoll, gemütlich und komfortabel eingerichtet. Das Haus liegt in einem schönen Garten mit herrlicher Aussicht auf die wunderschöne Umgebung.

Du moment où nous avons été accueillis jusqu'à notre départ de Craggan, tout était parfait. Nous hôtes ont été adorables, la chambre luxueuse et confortable et la nourriture proposée exceptionnelle!

Simply Exceptional – A Highland Gem

Craggan House is truly one of the best places we have ever stayed. A beautiful country house in a wonderfully peaceful setting, surrounded by nature and wildlife. From the warmest welcome to the stunning, tastefully decorated room, incredibly comfortable beds and beautiful bathroom, everything was simply perfect. The food was outstanding, the recommendations excellent, and the breakfast was quite simply the best British breakfast imaginable. Every detail is chosen with love, style and great taste, including beautiful artwork throughout the house. Exceptional hospitality, wonderful people and
