Christmas at Kentallen. Lovely photographs by 18 year old Jake Bench




















The were taken by one of our guests, 18 year old Jake Bench. Are they not wonderful?
The Bench family stayed at Bayview at Christmas. They had an up and down time. First the temperature was -11, then they found no water was running - oops bad news. Our Michelle got it sorted with a very gentle heating up towards the attic. Then the element in the heater went so no hot water, but Michelle's husband John got a part, went round there, fitted it and all was well again. Throughout the Bench family were as nice as you can imagine, you cannot get better guests. Thanks Michellle's family from Gillian and I. Above and beyond the call of duty.

This is the entry they posted for us in My Cottage Holiday.

We had our best Christmas ever in 3 Bayview cottage.It really is in an excellant location, next to a loch, close to the coast, Ben Nevis, Glencoe and stunning scenery which ever way you turn.We found the cottage very cosy and comfortable with all the facilities a family needs, very good kitchen appliances, comfy beds and everything we needed including Wi Fi.When we did have a problem (freezing pipes, it was -10 when we first arrived) both the owner and local housekeeper (and her family) were both very friendly and helpful and managed to resolve the problem even over the Christmas period.A special thank you to Michelle, John and Michelle's father for being so helpful.We would definitely recommend and hope to return.
