Gaynor and Mike are fantastic hosts who go above and beyond. The breakfast is one of the best we have had and we travel a lot. Rooms are clean and comfortable with drinks and snacks provided. There is also a guest fridge, use of a microwave and a tuck shop. We do not normally choose to stay in B&B accommodation but this was better than many hotels and apartments we have stayed in. Highly recommend.

What a lovely BnB with the most charming host. Staying with Gaynor at the Wooly Rock for three nights was a blast. Cozy room, excellent breakfast and lots of hints about what to do in the area. And, there’s a magical little box of candy in the room. It refills automagically.Would definitely return!

Trip was fantastic. Gaynor our| host was gracious and accommodating. Ground floor room with ensuite was a welcome change after two weeks of hiking stairs. Great location very close th Glencoe but removed from the traffic on a side road. One of our favorite visits over a three week Odyssey. Can't wait to return.|

We loved our stay so much. Our host welcomed us we were immediately made to feel at home. Our room was spotless and bed very comfortable. Free toiletries available and price included a wonderful breakfast. We were able to have our washing done and we were provided with lunch for the next day both at extra cost but well worth it. Prior to stay host advised that it was busy and suggested we book a restaurant and gave us several suggestions. If all Bed and Breakfasts could be this good
