Featuring sea and garden views, this guest house also includes free WiFi. The guest house has family rooms. The host(s) are lovely, the breakfast was delicious, the room was great. It had a really good combination of privacy in our room as well as comfortable common areas that made it feel like we were just staying with the family. Nicky was able to accommodate us for the guided tour (a later start time) and I'm so glad it worked out - the tour was one of my favorite parts of the overall trip to Scotland.

The guest house features some units with quiet street views, and every unit is fitted with a kettle. The units are equipped with heating facilities. Excellent Host, the room was spacious, spotlessly clean, warm and very comfortable. Wifi was good and fast, there was plenty of space to park my car nearby. The Bellavista Guest House was sign posted nearby at the last 2 junctions, so you can't really miss it. It was so quiet here, very little road traffic, just the sound of the sea. At night very dark outside, next to nothing for light pollution. Outside my mobile phone and internet reception was excellent. I stayed 5 nights and paid for breakfast. There was a wide variety to choose from on the breakfast menu and I thought it was great value.
