"We all had a lovely family holiday weekend. The grandchildren (all 9 of them) had a great time in the house playing hide and seek and other such games - it was very spacious. As the weather was good, we had plenty of walks and the little ones loved to watch the sheep. One of my sons-in law looked after the fire and made the lounge very comfortable in the evenings. We explored the area and all in all a good time was had by all."

"Where to start? The property is fabulous. It is spacious and excellently equipped. It is perfectly located to allow for that feeling of splendid isolation whilst also being a short drive to all the facilities in the nearby towns and villages. For all us city dwellers, Riechip offers a chance to relax in beautiful countryside and explore the surrounds at our leisure. Each morning, views from the windows took our breath away. Each night, the log fire and grand lounge area led to fantastically relaxed evenings. Will be back for more!!"
