We stayed two nights here during the last week of ski season in October 2012. The cottage was very spacious with 2 bed and 2 bath upstairs (sleeps 6) and kitchen and living downstairs. The fireplace in the living room was very welcome as the weather was still cold. Internal heating systems were available in all the other rooms. The... More

It was like being in our own private retreat. We all were able to relax - spread ourselves, dine by candle light and enjoy the lovely atmosphere, perfect for a family... More

We had 2 lovely days in Methvan - and absolutely loved our accommodation at White Stone Cottages. Had no trouble finding the cottages, and was lovely to arrive and have the heating going and the lights on. All the personal touches were great, and we felt right at home straight away. Thanks OJ for everything - will defenetly be back!
