Short Term Lets Licence - Applied for
Following recent notification from the Scottish Government that all holiday and short term letting accommodation is now required to comply with regulations and acquire a Short Term Lets licence to be able to continue trading, guests are hereby notified that our Licence application has been submitted and that we are currently awaiting a ‘formal’ number so that it can be included in all our documentation.

We are also hoping to be extending both The Cart Barn and The Smiddy.
We failed to be successful with our planning but will be submitting a new scheme in early 2024. We can’t do this earlier as we are now required to have a ‘Bat Survey’ completed and you are not allowed to carry these out in autumn/winter. We do however intend to improve the carparking facilities/patio on the Cart Barn and put an electric charge point in as this doesn’t require Council or Listed Buildings Scotland approval. So for the foreseeable it will be business as usual with just a short closure in January while we redecorate as needed.

Recommendations:

September 'We have had a wonderful fortnight at The Smiddy. There is such a wide variety of lovely places to visit here and we feel that we've barely scratched the surface so there is still plenty for a return visit.'

August "That’s us been back home now for over 2 weeks, and we are fine, feeling refreshed from our holiday on the West Coast. (Not a hint of any dreaded symptoms thankfully.)
We would like to thank you again for the wonderful accommodation you provided.
It was perfect, in fact I think it is the nicest holiday house I have ever stayed in - such a beautifully restored building with every home comfort you could think of and more.
The welcome was lovely, from both of you, as were the jar of sweet peas and roses, the present of soap, fresh eggs, milk, wine, oatcakes, shortbread, cheese, pate…
And, so good of you leaving The Smiddy unoccupied every alternate week. I have recommended it to family and friends."

August ' The Cart Barn and Smiddy are both top in the Top Drawer category; the welcoming gifts were such a surprise and really appreciated'


August ' What a lovely week in this five star deluxe 'bothy'. We have enjoyed many self-catering Cottages - but never better.'

March ' ...We are desperate already to come back! The Smiddy is absolutely beautiful and so well equipped, never before have I come across such a gem of a place - EVER!'

"I had a great week at Roshven even if the weather wasn't that good. Tim and Siggy have a wonderful place in great surroundings. Everything was provided and they were both very helpful to me.  The property is great for a couple though I was there alone. The place is kept spotless and the bathroom was great, loved the colours. Its situation is wonderful, you can take a short walk over the hills and there are numerous beaches to discover and plenty of tracks through the woods.  A really nice place which I would recommend and where I hope to come back to soon."
