We have our own sewage system and provide all the eco friendly products needed to keep it running efficiently – toilet paper, washing liquids, toilet cleaners and an explanation leaflet on why this is necessary.

Moira and Family

Tarte Normande Alexandria, Scotland
Review Submitted: July 31, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
Our family (which included an elderly lady, a teenager and a 12-year old) has just returned from a thoroughly enjoyable week in Barry and Sally's charming and superbly equipped house. We have been renting holiday properties all over Britain and continental Europe for years, but this house was equipped to a higher standard than any we have previously visited. All the rooms were beautifully styled, well furnished and spotlessly clean. the range of kitchen equipment and serving dishes was exceptional; even the kitchen knives were sharp, which is pretty much unheard of in our experience (our number includes an extremely fussy chef).
The owners, Barry and Sally, live next door, and were the most helpful and friendly people you could wish for, supplying all kinds of practical assistance, and entertaining local anecdotes. Barry even lent us his bike a few times.
The rural setting was lovely and peaceful, but there were also many shops and supermarkets within easy range.
All in all, an outstanding property which I cannot recommend too highly.
