We stayed at the Kirkmichael Apartments at the end of March in the Strath Ardle Apartment. There was some maintenance work being undertaken on the ground floor during our stay but it didn't... more |

If you want to enjoy nature, this is a good place from which to start. The apartments have all you need and are quite spacious. The village, though small, has 3 good pubs ( we loved the food at Strathardale Inn, which is just outside the village) and a small shop with all the basics, even wi-fi connection. And the owner is just really helpful. I can tell you that you can count on her to solve any problem you may have during your stay. |
