We arrived at East Heddle on 26/9/20 for a 7 day stay. First impressions were not good as externally the gardens and outbuildings can best be described as shambollic. Inside the property we found cobwebs, dirty floors, evidence of mice in cupboards, a dirty towel in the bathroom and crushed and dirty bed linen. This is described as a 5* property! Totally unacceptable, particularly as we would have expected a deep clean to ensure the property was Covid-safe. We called the owner, Simon Treasure, who arrived and, after much heated discussion, agreed that the property was not clean and offered to get his cleaner back on Monday. We were not willing to stay in the property until then - and had no confidence that the property would ever be made clean and safe - and so declined his offer. Fortunately we were able to find good accommodation elsewhere. We are still trying to get our 675 back from Mr Treasure but he does not reply to correspondence and 2 weeks on we are not hopeful. I fear our only recourse will be via the courts. Avoid.

Had a week in Turriedale in the October holidays. The house is great, and has everything you need, including plenty crockery, fridge freezer, microwave, washing machine, bath, shower and a Rayburn, which was fantastic for cooking and heating. Its pet friendly, which allowed us to bring the dog, which was a huge bonus. As we had to leave early for the ferry, Simon kindly threw in a complementary food hamper, which had some excellent locally produced food. He also gave some top tips on local walks and points of interest. Location makes it easy to get into town and there are several local landmarks on the doorstep. Orkney was fantastic, and Turriedale was just what we needed as a base to explore from.
