GUEST BOOK
‘I believe that we were the first visitors to ‘Am Blar Beag.’ , but I sincerely hope it won’t be the last time we visit this lovely, cosy and welcoming home. The communication in making a reservation was simple and straightforward and kicked off a memorable holiday.
The house is beautifully decorated, had lovely furniture, all the appliances you need, a lovely kitchen/dining area to make meals a nice experience before you put your feet up in front of the Smart tv to watch a movie in front of the wood burning fire.
The house was spotlessly clean, has all the mod-cons, and is a great location for the beach, Wobbly Dog cafe, Spors Nis, Breakwater Cafe, Eoropie playpark and Cross Stores and Post Office. Thank you for the lovely welcome pack with local produce.
We hope to be back in 2021. All the best. Ceud mile taing .
