"We had a fantastic stay at the Old Ministers House and have booked with GNL many times. We visit the area several times a year and the location at Rothimurcus is perfect for us for all the activities we enjoy. The house itself is very comfortable there's lovely big sofa in living room, bedrooms and en-suites all clean and big comfy beds, the kitchen could do with a bit of a spruce up and a couple of things renewed however the house has the perfect layout for family groups and and the garden with hotub & BBQ area is fab. The only moan we have is that for the price logs could have been provided not just as a starter pack."

"Great location - not cheap, but it’s well appointed. We enjoyed our stay and will book again. I won’t bother with “the good” stuff because that’s already good, so to the improvement required….. House not clean enough. Soap and debris under taps , dust in lots of corners - better cleaner required. Not enough logs left for the stay. Log burner not adjustable and needs looking at as it incinerates only . Broken shelves in fridge. That’s it."
