Everything. It was exactly as a remote cottage on the edge of the world should be. If you're looking for urbanity and modernity this probably isn't for you. If you want a peaceful break from the world around you, in traditional but stylish fashion then this is the spot for you!

It was pretty perfect tbh

"An idyll of the emerald isle is the perfect description- recommend :)"

9.0

My visit to Teachin cottage was just fabulous- there wasn't much not to like! The cottage is traditional and beautiful throughout, with all needs (from my perspective) catered for and a spectacular view to gaze at for hours. I had a change of plans with family having to cancel last minute so visited on my own and took advantage of the quiet to write, read and walk. William the owner was so accommodating taking the time to give me many local and varied walking options at my request and Mary Grace was also very responsive when I struggled to get heating to work and had the settings fixed in no time. I also particularly loved reading about the history of the cottage in the information provided and the telescope for star gazing on the dark skies without any light pollution. Hope to be back :)

Heating in updated bedroom wasn't set initially but as mentioned was fixed in no time. Perhaps shower head could be checked that it's working as best as possible? Key box a bit stiff.
