    So cozy with a very comfortable bed and luxurious bathtub. I absolutely loved the couple who run the place—they took such wonderful care of us. I wish we could have stayed more than one night.

    The Carnach House was the best place we stayed in Scotland! Ian, our host, greeted us upon arrival, got us settled and helped us figure out the best place to eat dinner. The accommodations were top notch and quite lovely. Property was beautiful...
