The Treehouse by Airlie

Location excellent for the transport

It was a little cold and felt damp.

This place was great. It has so many features that made our stay comfortable. The host, Mano, left us a few treats to welcome us. There is a covered garden where you can lounge or eat, what a nice feature! The beds were comfortable, the rooms each had their own heater so it was always warm inside despite the rainy weather outside. The kitchen is very well stocked with cooking utensils and appliances. The Treehouse is a short walk away from cute shops and the beach for dolphin viewing. Mano answered our questions ans was available quickly and helped us when we needed a repair done on a suitcase. It’s clear he wants his guests to enjoy their stay.

The dryer takes a long time to dry the cloths but it was fine because we could hang the clothes in the back covered garden.

thoughtful touches such as milk, bread, wine and beer were very much appreciated. Communication with host excellent - ideal for us for a couple of nights visiting family but allowing us to have our own space.

Central location in quiet street and close to shops and facilities. Very pleasant walk to beautiful beach. Nairn has a lot to offer and we visit frequently. Host provided details of entry promptly and this all worked well. Instructions for recycling etc clear. Spacious electric shower and hot water. Managed to park outside property on all but one occasion when we parked in side street so this was very helpful. Bed comfortable. The host also kindly provided a loaf, tea, coffee, milk on arrival, wine, beer, biscuits etc which was a lovely touch.

Despite our best efforts with opening windows, minimising time in the shower and switching on extractor fans, the property was very damp- books and magazines curled up etc. Very, very small property for family of 5- we knew this of course but expected to be able to use the garden room more comfortably. It was very cold in the evening though and increasingly damp. Cooking facilities are good but spread over the small kitchen area and garden room. Not quite enough of everything in terms of plates and knives for five but we managed. Too small for us to sit inside for breakfast/meals together so we were glad of our hot water bottles to enable us to sit in garden room. We had to give up on playing the board games provided because of the damp/wet and the TV was tricky for all to see due to the necessary placement of the sofa etc. I imagine this is a lovely property for a smaller number of guests and in the summer. Learning for us!

Loved the outdoor area for breakfast and lunch, and dogs enjoyed chilling out there

Nothing

Some very kind extras on our arrival, a freshly baked fresh loaf of bread and a few fridge items

Quirky little place and the garden sun lounge area is superb.

All good
