Margaret was friendly and really kept things up every day. Always talking out the garbage and puffing things up. I didn't need the extra attention, but it is special compared to most of the BnBs I've been at (over 20). She has a lot of experience, and it shows. I enjoyed our brief conversations each morning, being a solo traveler.I'd come back here in a minute if I ever get the chance to visit Scotland again. I can only hope I do.

Very small fine B & B with very good and extensive breakfast.The hosts really made you feel welcome from start to finish, we arrived late because about a three hour delay from the flight, but we just felt fine after arrived.The room was spacious enough with a great view over the mountain, absolutely spotless clean, top in order.We slept perfectly well! Nice selection of cosmetic articles for showering and refreshing!Very nice farewell conversation, stay healthy and have a lot of fun in Berlin! Wonderful to have met you both! Thank you very much!

What a diamond of a place, such a wonderful couple Margaret and Derek make you feel so at home and welcome from the minute you step through the door. This has been my second time visiting this beautiful bnb and i shall continue to choose the Hillview because it is the best. I always feel at home when i spend time there. The hosts go out of their way, i cannot fault anything about this place.

I had a wonderful experience staying with Margaret and her husband. They were very kind and helpful. Their B&B was delightfully cozy and very clean. My room was fantastic with a fabulous view! Margaret's breakfasts were delicious and more than filling. I very much enjoyed my stay and would recommend staying with them at their B&B.
