Wir haben nur eine Nacht im Lighthouse Room verbracht und mussten leider sehr früh abreisen, da wir unseren Heimflug nach Edinburgh erwischen mussten. Das Zimmer ist sehr hübsch und gemütlich und die Gastgeber-Familie sehr freundlich. Auch der Ort, der direkt am Meer liegt und die Umgebung ist sehr schön – abgesehen von einigen Bohrinseln ohne die es idyllischer gewesen wäre.
Kim2015-05-19T00:00:00ZI stayed here as I had a bike race nearby, it was very quiet and the room was great so I slept well which is unusual. The breakfast was very good and one of the few places I have stayed where I actually got enough food! Thank you
Matt2016-07-17T00:00:00ZJermaine was a kind and gracious host. The room was extremely clean, large, and comfortable. The bathroom was also quite large and pristine. Checking in was easy. Our continental breakfast was exactly what we needed to start our day. Recommended.
Megan2015-08-09T00:00:00ZVery nice room, friendly hosts and the breakfast was great! Cromarty is also definitely worth a visit
Johannes2016-07-25T00:00:00ZCampbell met us early so that we could drop our bags off - much appreciated! Cosy and clean! Very friendly, helpful and interesting! Wonderful breakfast host!
Pam2016-10-15T00:00:00ZGreat location, comfortable room, with good views from the two windows. The room is on the second floor, so you need to be able to carry whatever luggage you bring up the stairs. Modern and clean shower room, shared with the other room. Lovely continental breakfast, and we were offered a cooked breakfast for a small extra charge. Campbell got in touch before we arrived to ensure he was around when we turned up, talked us through eating options for the evening and he chatted to us over breakfast, which we enjoyed. A good experience.
Jacqueline2016-09-10T00:00:00ZThe room is nice and tidy, the bathroom clean. Its just a few steps from the sea. And oposite the house is a tiny restaurant (recommended by michelin!) - you should definately make a reservation, we missed that but the take away pizza we've took to the beach was very good too. And so is the breakfast prepared by Campell.
Johanna2016-09-04T00:00:00ZMy friend and I stayed with Jermaine for 2 nights, while visiting Cromarty for a wedding. She was a fantastic host and made us feel very welcome - even waiting up until 11.45pm when we arrived. Her and her husband accommodated my dietary requirements and baked me a loaf of gluten free bread - amazing! The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. Everything we needed for a lovely weekend stay.

Nous garderons un bon souvenir de notre séjour à "The Bothy" : de petites attentions très sympathiques : les oeufs et le pains frais, un petit feu bien appréciable en arrivant :-), un logement superbe, on reviendrait avec plaisir !
Marie2015-08-30T00:00:00ZAmazing place....
Robert2016-03-26T00:00:00ZWe had a fantastic New Year's stay at the Bothy. Fiona was really helpful before we arrived, sending travel directions and suggestions on places to visit and eat. When we arrived she was really welcoming and even had a bottle chilling in the fridge for us! Our stay was really relaxed and the Bothy was just gorgeous, the perfect place for a weekend away with friends! It was spotlessly clean and the kitchen was well equipped to make dinner for four. There was plenty of wood to have the wood burner on every night of our stay. We would definitely visit again, thanks a lot Fiona!
Rachel2016-01-03T00:00:00ZFiona and Matt are so sweet and welcoming. Very warm and friendly couple.
Lisa2016-05-22T00:00:00ZThis very comfortable, well equipped and spacious accommodation is perfectly located for exploring the extraordinary wee town of Cromarty and its surrounds. Fiona and Matt are the perfect hosts, providing full and accurate information. Everything was even better than anticipated!
Stephen2015-09-23T00:00:00ZOur stay at the Bothy was fantastic - it is in a great location to explore the Black Isle with a position on a hill above Cromarty with views over Cromarty Firth. It is a 10-15 minute walk into Cromarty with its bakery, cheese shop, welcoming pubs and the excellent Sutor Creek restaurant. The Bothy is well equipped, clean and spacious for a family of four. The chickens in the next field provided us with our eggs for the week which was a nice touch. We would definitely stay at the Bothy again and hopefully will next year!
Mark2016-06-20T00:00:00ZWe had a lovely stay at the bothy. Fiona and Matt are wonderful hosts and have created space that is both beautiful and comfortable. We loved the views of the Firth from the living room windows, being able to walk to McFarquhar's Bed without hopping in a car, and the kids thought it was 'super cool' to eat fresh eggs from Matt and Fiona's chickens. The Black Isle is one of our favorite places to explore, and we'd definitely recommend the bothy as a place to stay if you are looking to come for a visit.
Heather2015-07-25T00:00:00ZGreat stay at the bothy, lovely peaceful location with plenty of local walks and great views. The car did not move from the moment we arrived until we left. A couple of good restaurants and cafés about a mile away in Cromarty. The Bothy is a lovely cottage with some tasteful finishing touches and a great welcome pack of fresh eggs bread and milk with-plenty of logs for the wood burner. We met Matt on arrival who explained everything.

Das Cottage ist ein wundervoller Ort, um einen ruhigen und entspannten Urlaub zumachen. Kleiner Tipp für Winterflur: Man muss zwischendurch den Kaminofen ordentlich einheizen, damit es warm wird, da die Heizung vorprogrammiert war, so dass sie nur dreimal am Tag anging. Leider war es dadurch in den Zeiten dazwischen relativ schnell kalt in allen Zimmern. Aber es ist auf jeden Fall eine Reise wert!

Caroline's apartment is on a fantastic location with a view on the harbour of Cromarty. Everything we needed was in the apartment so it was a very pleasant stay. Caroline did us feel very like home. Liam and Hanneke from The Netherlands.
Liam2016-06-15T00:00:00ZCaroline's place is small but it works extremely well for a couple. The fold down bed was easy to use and very comfortable. It was very special being able to lie in bed and look at the pleasant view of the harbour in complete privacy. It is well equipped and comfortable. Cromarty is a lovely little sea side village and is well placed to explore the area. 45 minutes from Culloden battlefield, which is well worth a visit.
Val2016-09-13T00:00:00Zcaroline m'a montré tout ce dont j'avais besoin dans la location. le studio est très calme et à tout l'équipement nécessaire ;il est situé tout près du petit port et la vue sur la mer depuis la terrasse ou de votre lit le matin à votre réveil est des plus agréable la ville est attrayante et de nombreuses ballades alentours sont possibles thank's a lot Caroline
alain2016-06-10T00:00:00ZStay at Caroline's place was really nice, I was with girlfriend and we enjoyed it. If you like self catering, you got everything you need. We were around all day and it was really great having kitchen to prepare ourself a dinner. If you don't seek luxurious accommodation and like to prepare your own meal it's cool place for a couple. Caroline is great, altough airbnb was giving us hard time with reservation, she was great and we also had great evening in her company.
Klemen2016-08-16T00:00:00ZWe had a great stay at Caroline's! The place is cozy, well equipped and the mattress on the bed is soooo comfy!! Great,large shower as well as a washing machine! Caroline is a friendly and generous hostess!! Thank you for a great stay, Caroline!!
william2015-09-13T00:00:00ZA truly beautful place to stay. The pictures posted do not show the beautiful view you will enjoy when you wake up in the morning. We hade a really grat time and Caroline made us feel welcome. Thanks again!
Jan-Christian2016-08-30T00:00:00ZA great place to stay - we had a lovely time. Perfect for two people. Amazing views out over the Cromarty Forth! Thanks Caroline!
Jenny2016-08-29T00:00:00ZCromarty is lovely and peaceful. Caroline is a great host, very friendly and kind, with a fun, vivacious personality. She made my stay a pleasure. :-)
Cromarty, IV11 8YL, สหราชอาณาจักร
We enjoyed our stay in the beautiful Harbour Room and Jermaine and her family were great hosts. We had a very good breakfast with tea, cereals, fresh fruit, toast and a large selection of jam. If we ever come to Cromarty again we'll love to stay there again. Thank you, Jermaine!
Stefanie2015-09-14T00:00:00ZThank you for a very welcoming and comfortable stay, albeit brief.
Giles2016-09-04T00:00:00ZAn exceptionnel location faced with a little harbour and opposite ... a pub ! A warm welcome with an open-minded hostess. Lovely !
jean-marc2015-08-30T00:00:00ZThanks for a tasty breakfast, a good night's sleep and great walking tips :-)
Tim2015-04-06T00:00:00ZAunque pasamos sólo una noche nos recibieron muy bien. Jermaine nos preparó un desayuno riquísimo, fue muy amable. La casa es muy linda y comoda con una hermosa vista desde la ventana de la habitación. Super recomendable.
Camila2015-07-28T00:00:00ZGreat B&B on the coast, awesome location, great places to eat nearby, perfect for getting out to a quiet seaside place.
Andrii2016-08-15T00:00:00ZJermaine was a lovely host. My wife and I felt very welcome during our stay. The room was spacious with a view of the Cromarty Firth and an extremely comfortable bed. We were spoiled for choice at breakfast with every taste catered for. The location is also perfect for exploring Cromarty. I would highly recommend staying here to friends and family.
Callum2016-07-19T00:00:00ZWe stayed at Jermaines for three nights. Thankyou JermaIne. You were a wonderful hostess, so helpful and friendly. We had a lovely room with great views. Your knowledge of the area meant that our time at Cromatry was well spent.
Cromarty, IV11 8YL, สหราชอาณาจักร
We had a wonderful welcome after a long journey. Fiona made sure that we had all the information we needed but left us free to head off for dinner without delay. The room was very comfortable and the facilities immaculate. We really aappreciated the malt whisky by the fire on our return. Graham served us a delicious breakfast and had no problem accommodating an extra couple of guests. A truly amazing place to stay and well deserving of a Michelin listing.
Edmund2016-01-04T00:00:00ZThis is the place to stay in the Black Isle if you want affordable luxury and a friendly welcome and brilliant food. First class in every way.
Edmund2016-10-24T00:00:00ZWe enjoyed thoroughly and loved the place. Nice, light and spacious room with beautiful en-suite bathroom. Very warm welcome by Fiona and Graham, who provided great suggestions for places to visit and bothered to book for us a nice restaurant in Inverness. Excellent breakfast with local and high quality produce, many of them home made. Details in every aspect beyond expectation.
Marco2016-08-04T00:00:00ZTrès jolie maison, décoré avec soin. Une prestation haut de gamme pour un prix raisonnable. Nos hôtes était très attentionnés, à notre écoute et soucieux de nous. Le petit déjeuner est très raffiné, nous avons passer une agréable nuit chez fiona.

Just returned from a lovely holiday on the Black Isle. It was made all the more enjoyable by staying at our host Caroline's house in Cromarty. It was spacious very clean comfortable warm and with every essential item you could possibly wish for provided by her-very generous. Beautiful views exactly as she described in her listing from the dining room and kitchen windows- lovely to look at while having breakfast or a meal. A great base to come back to if exploring further afield or just the beautiful interesting village of Cromarty itself where the local people were so friendly and warm and everyone knew everyone including Caroline! So funny, whenever anyone asked us where we were staying all we had to say "Caroline's house". We took our bikes and there were great bike trails to use in addition to places of historical interest and of course Ecoadventure dolphin watching trips- another activity that we did which was amazing- the dolphins decided to interact with our boat that day which was really special. We knew Caroline was on hand for any problems that we may have had but she was very unobtrusive and left us to enjoy our holiday which we did- thoroughly. I have a lovely reminder of Cromarty in the form of a framed print by a local artist bought a the wee gallery there. Thanks again Caroline for making our stay so enjoyable.
Patricia2016-08-07T00:00:00ZCaroline made sure we had access to the house immediately and made us feel very welcome in her town. She also gave us privacy. A nice touch was the milk she had purchased for the kids.
Julie2016-08-17T00:00:00ZHad a lovely stay at Caroline's. We were out for most of the day at a 4 day Art course being run at the Old Brewery but great having Caroline's place to return to afterwards for a chilled out evening. The house had everything we needed to make our stay most pleasant and Cromarty itself is great, as is nearby Rosemarkie and Fortrose. Had an excellent meal at Sutors Creek Restaurant and picked up some tasty goodies at the Cromarty Bakery. Would also recommend Cromarty Pottery shop for lovely and unique gifts/souvenirs.
Katherine2016-08-15T00:00:00ZCaroline was very welcoming, the house was clean and had all of the amenities that we needed. The neighbourhood was very quiet (apart from the gulls that is :-)!). We had a lovely stay and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Would recommend the Sutors Creek Restaurant and the Cromarty Bakery. Would recommend Caroline's house to any potential visitor.
Kenny2016-06-03T00:00:00ZThe house was ideal for our stay on the Black Isle, Caroline was very accommodating
Roisin2016-09-27T00:00:00ZDas Haus in Cromarty ist niedlich und rund um komfortable. Die Sessel im Wohnzimmer sind besonders angenehm :-) Alles in allem haben wir uns bei Caroline wohl gefühlt. Beim Ankunft kann es etwas kühl im Haus sein, und ich würde empfehlen warm Kleider dabei zu haben, mindestens für den ersten Tag. Das Dorf bietet an sich nicht wirklich viel, man ist am Ende der Halbinsel "Black Isle". Auch die Fähre scheint zumindest nicht mehr in diesem Jahreszeiten (Ende September) noch in Betrieb zu sein. Aber Inverness ist nicht zu weit für einen Tagesausflug, welcher noch bis zum Loch Ness und dem Schloss Urquart ausgedehnt werden kann. Es verkehrt ein Bus wobei ein Auto ist meiner Meinung nach wirklich empfehlenswert. Näher sind noch die Dörfer Fortrose und Rosemarkie ganz niedlich und bieten Pubs und Restaurant. Auf jeden Fall empfehlenswert und preiswert.

'Mi casa es vuestra casa' those were the first words Moira and Gordon told us, and we felt like that, everything perfect! Outstandig hosts, súper friendly and lovely! Fabulous flat with all we needed, even better of what the pictures show. Great quiet location, brilliant sleep, súper confortable beds, very close to amenities and very well conected to Inverness. We wish We could have stayed longer! We will definately come back! Thank you :)
Eva2016-07-31T00:00:00ZThe home was lovely and cozy. We are calling it 'home' because it surely felt like one. Rooms were spacious and well decorated. The view was amazing and picturesque, you have sea on one side and lush green mountains on the other. The home is better than shown in the pictures on the site. Our hosts were one of the loveliest people we have ever met. We received a warm welcome. They were there to receive us at the bus stop and when we left, they saw us off. They provided all the necessities in the rooms, the kitchen and bathrooms. We especially enjoyed the tasty cake that was waiting for us :). Gordon even took us to a nearby castle to begin our tour of the place. The place is easily accessible from Inverness city centre, with buses every 15 minutes or so and the route is really beautiful. If we ever travel to Inverness again, we surely are going to stay with them. Love and regards, Satish, Ruby and Preetesh
Madhur2016-07-26T00:00:00ZAwesome first floor apartment, really large and sunny one. Great and friendly couple, happy to help. I really recommend a visit. There is also a great distillery Dalmore within walk distance. Great stay there. We hope to come there some time again. Jakub

What an awesome place to stay! Everything you could ever want for an amazing stay by the stunning Cromity Firth! Graham was a great host, everything was perfect and ran smoothly.
Romana2014-08-01T00:00:00ZJust as described. A great place to stay right on the sea. Great facilities, a nice big kitchen, lots of space and very clean. Thank you
Dan2014-10-27T00:00:00ZThe cottage was absolutely amazing ,the house was so cosy and spotlessly clean ,the views from the cottage were fantastic will definately recommend this property

neilReally nice house.beautiful view,very clean
Radu2016-12-30T00:00:00ZVery beautiful house, there is a bathroom for every bedroom, a big kitchen and space for everyone. The location is quiet and reasonably close to the main attractions of Northern Scotland.
Gabriele2017-02-04T00:00:00ZReally nice place on shore of Cromarty firth. Beach out front. Short drive to Tain where we found a nice long beach walk along Dornoch firth. Very clean and comfy house and fully equipped kitchen. Living room has a log burner which heats the place up a treat and is more entertaining than TV any day. Really good value. Would stay again.
Keith2017-02-19T00:00:00ZBeautiful little cottage on Cromarty Firth. We sat by the wood stove late into the night. Good value for a large group.

Great room - stayed overnight on a long drive from the south coast up to the Orkney Islands. House is clean, warm and well equipped. Very comfortable beds. Wendy very helpful and good communication. Very likely to stay again if I make the same trip.
James2016-08-07T00:00:00ZFrom the start Wendy was quick to respond to all my questions as I was booking the room for my mother. My mother enjoyed her stay so much I booked her another night. She said the room was clean, tidy and quiet. It had everything you need for your stay and was close to some lovely scenery. I/She would definitely recommend here for your stay and would stay here again.
Jarvis2016-08-11T00:00:00ZGreat place, really clean I stayed for a week and everything was great ideal if working in the area
David2017-02-27T00:00:00ZNice, clean room, in a house shared with several other tenants/guests. Landlady was very responsive to my inquiries, and helpful at that. Both the landlady and other tenants made me feel welcome. The description matches perfectly. The neighbourhood is totally residential, as far as I could tell, so everything (shops, etc.) is a commute away. I used this room as my base for holiday: exploring the area, from Tain to Fort Augustus to Ballindalloch.
Thomas2016-08-05T00:00:00ZThe fully equipped flat was clean and comfortable. Check in was via key safe on the wall, which took me some time to find. The overall experience was efficient, but a little bit impersonal, never met Wendy nor the other guests.
Markus2016-08-25T00:00:00ZIts clean and comfortable, with a well equipped kitchen. Fine for overnight stay on the way to or from somewhere, and good value. Shared the house with three others, all men, on the night I was there and they were helpful, friendly and polite. They even remembered to put the toilet seat down without me asking. The women in their lives would be proud!
Liz2016-08-16T00:00:00ZI had booked the room for my mother. She liked it so much she stayed another night. My mother really thought the room was fantastic, clean and very comfortable.
Jarvis2016-08-16T00:00:00ZWendy war großartig. Sie hat mir immer weitergeholfen, wenn ich eine Frage hatte. Das Haus ist mit allem ausgestattet, was man braucht, sauber und einfach zu finden.

Wow! Such an incredible home. Cannot recommend it enough. One of the nicest places I have ever stayed, incredible food, and wonderful location. Do it.
Alex2016-01-04T00:00:00ZIf I am every back in Scotland, I will make a special trip out of my way to stay at The Factor's House. This may not be the typical airbnb listing, but I am extremely happy we decided to stay here. Fiona and Graham are amazing hosts. The room was beautiful, spacious, clean and comfortable. As was the rest of the house. The first night of our stay, we opted to have dinner at the house and I'm so glad we did. The food was amazing! And breakfast was also fabulous! Fiona is quite an impressive cook and Graham always kept us entertained. They also gave us great suggestions on things to see and do in the area. I cannot recommend The Factor's House highly enough! Absolute perfections!
Becky2015-09-20T00:00:00ZWe had the pleasure of staying at The Factor's House during our recent visit to Cromarty. Fiona and Graham made us feel so welcome into their beautiful home right from the time we drove into the driveway. The house and location are exactly as described with an amazing view of the ocean and beautifully decorated. There were those little extras in each of the rooms that added the comforts of home, ie: cozy linens, robes, slippers, cookies, candies, fancy water, a selection of tea, coffee, hot chocolate etc. The rooms also had many of the local artists works, which added a nice touch. Fiona knew that my Grandmother was born in Cromarty and took the time to research her family background for us, which we most appreciated. She also was very accommodating with my sensitivity to scents and made a huge effort to make me comfortable during my stay. Breakfast was fantastic, so much selection with the finest ingredients. You can tell that a lot of love goes into everything at The Factor's House. Fiona and Graham also gave us lots of information about Cromarty, where to go and where to eat. We ate at Sutors, which was a lovely way to spend our Canadian Mother's Day. I would highly recommend visiting Cromarty and The Factor's House. Thank you Fiona and Graham for a memorable stay!

I highly recommend this lovely, cozy little cottage right on the water's edge. Great views, lovely rooms, all amenities provided. Marion couldn't have been more helpful. There was so much food waiting for us we could barely eat it all. The house is spotlessly clean, the beds really comfortable and rooms very quiet. The location is perfect for traveling across the highlands. We were there in the coldest days of the year and the house was fantastically warm. It is in all ways just perfect.
Anne 2015-01-22T00:00:00ZI had booked this cottage only for two nights for my family friends. They were extremely pleased with all the arrangement made by Marion, she was extremely helpful, very approachable. Would strongly recommend to anyone visiting Inverness or surrounding area. Lovely house, great host.
Kedar2015-06-24T00:00:00ZI highly recommend this property. The space is lovely, beautifully decorated, and well-equipped with everything you could possibly need. Marion was very welcoming and helpful, and had even provided us with snacks and breakfast. The kitchen was fantastic, and there's a good grocery store in town. After eating in pubs for several days while traveling, it was so nice to cook our own dinner. I felt as comfortable in this house as I would in my own. We had to cancel one night due to bad weather, and Marion was very flexible and accommodating. The surrounding area is amazing, and the town of Invergordon quite cute. The community murals are an especially nice attraction, and Marion provided a nice guide that explains the murals. We did not have enough time to fully explore this beautiful location, and I definitely want to visit again!
Kristina2014-08-15T00:00:00ZStaying in the Invergordon/Inverness area at Marion and Sonny's house was a real pleasure. They were very kind, allowing us a late check in and providing a generous welcome basket of breakfast essentials (so nice after our long drive). The place was cozy and comfortably housed our group of six. The place was immaculate and the kitchen had everything necessary for cooking full meals. It was nice to have a little blossoming cherry tree out the living room window and sea view from one of the bedrooms. We wished we had more time there to explore some of Marion's suggestions of things to do and see in the area. We hope to be back someday. Thanks so much, Marion and Sonny!
Gary2016-05-06T00:00:00ZMarion is a very hospitalble person, we were late when we arrived and she still waitied for us till (PHONE NUMBER HIDDEN) at night to see us in and help with the details. The house was clean and in good order, the bedrooms were large with good space available. The view of the lake from one of the rooms is great ... also the nearby area is good to have a walk along the lake or relax... if you have a car its quite nearby to many places for interest within 1 hour. Place was just as descrbed, Marion also provided some breakfast items on request which was very helpful
Gautam2016-05-03T00:00:00ZIt was a perfect place to stay. It felt very much like home and I feel so pampered. I love the walks and the view from the room is amazing as well as the bed. I used the kitchen so much and it catered to my needs. Thank you Marion and Sonny!
Charlyn2016-02-27T00:00:00ZMarion et Sunny nous ont parfaitement accueilli dans un appartement spacieux et superbement équipé. Ils nous ont fournis des indications touristiques à tout moment. Nous recommandons
RAYBOIS2016-08-11T00:00:00ZΗ Marion μας έδωσε με ακρίβεια οδηγίες για να φθάσουμε στο χώρο της. Έβρεχε και μας είχε ανάψει θέρμανση. Μας πρόσφερε επίσης ένα καλάθι με πολλά καλούδια.Είναι ένα πανέμορφο, ήσυχο σπίτι δίπλα στη θάλασσα με όμορφο μικρο κήπο. Πολύ ευγενική μας έδωσε πολλές πληροφορίες για τι είναι καλύτερο να επισκεφθούμε. Την ευχαριστούμε πολύ.

The host canceled this reservation 7 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.
KitWe were really happy with our stay and would recommend for anyone wanting to spend some time together in a quiet village (with your very own pub opposite). Gonna leave a long review as we're the first: Arrival: We booked the place late in the day (apparently on the first day they had listed the cottage) and Lee was very fast to respond, helped us arrange our arrival to Milton and got the place ready for us at short notice. The innkeeper came round when we arrived and explained a few things about the house and the area. They had left milk and cookies for us :) The Cottage: Warm and cosy house with plenty of room for 3 people. Decent, well-equipped kitchen for cooking, with the basics in the cupboards. Good-sized living-room with a dining table, comfy sofas, freeview on the TV as well as some cards and basic board games. Good shower and heating / hot-water. The wi-fi wasn't great (good enough for (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) and occassional Googling) and could do with a dedicated router inside the house. The Inn: The cottage is directly opposite the inn (a few meters away), which is a quiet village pub for locals. We played some pool and darts and chatted with the friendly local folk. We were lucky enough to be there for the New Years Eve party with live music, which was good fun! The innkeeper was lovely and looked after us well. The Area: There's not loads going on, but enough for a few slow days. The cottage is right next to the Milton Woods and you can follow the river down to the shore and along the beach which is a nice walk (probably 1.5 hours). We also caught a bus to Tain for the day which is a nice town. You can survive on public transport but probably want a car with you. There's a small village shop with basic food etc. but you want to do a shop beforehand or go to the nearby towns.

Alistair was a great host and the accommodation was perfect for our young family - plenty of room to run and play in the gardens and lovely cosy living areas and sleeping areas that felt homely, modern and very clean. A great place to enjoy some peace and quiet in northern Scotland. There were also many thoughtful touches like well stocked pantry and kids toys - it felt like they were really trying to make our stay as comfortable as possible.
haidee2016-07-23T00:00:00ZAlistair was an amazing host. He was flexible on our arrival and departure times. He made sure that we fully understood the area so that we could participate in all that Nigg had to offer (i.e. whisky distilleries, magnificent beaches, quirky stores and pubs). The house and surrounding area was beyond beautiful. Me and my guests had the best experience staying at this holiday house and would HIGHLY recommend this house and area for future interested persons(URL HIDDEN)
Morgan2016-05-31T00:00:00ZWow is the only word that can be associated with Alistair's property in Nigg, Inverness. It is a dream holiday home for anyone who enjoys peace & tranquility in the countryside with a perfect modern home setup. It was more than fully equipped with all that's needed. We would cherish our stay there for the years to come. As a host Alistair was extremely friendly and approachable. We had an absolutely wonderful experience. A highly recommended place to all.
Ashok2016-04-29T00:00:00ZWe rented both homes on the property and this was ideal setup for the 12 of us. Alistair was a great host, helping us ahead of our stay to arrange a bouncy castle and providing a welcome box of food & drink supplies which was a nice touch. Couldn't have asked for better....
Neil2016-10-18T00:00:00ZWe stayed at this place during the easter break and I must admit that this is one of the best cottages I have stayed during my UK trips. A place with ample space and beauty.

juro 02-16-2002, 06:07 AM I've got the blank out of the bag, put the ferrules together and am already getting psyched! I guess I should find the spline with the pieces put together first... (help me here!) :p juro 02-16-2002, 06:17 AM Nope... Sage marks the blank with little white temporary dots to line up the parts. Once assembled, I can't detect any deformation at all (fairly stout blank - 10wt) so with the brand markings the way my other Sages are, it looks good to go. Next I would need to place the guide and put some masking tape there or something. Off the the Sage site to get guide spacings... WOW nice job on the Sage site redesign Skookum! John Desjardins 02-16-2002, 09:14 AM Juro, Wrap the ferrules, then check the spline. The wraps on the ferrules are supposed to reinforce the blank when you flex the blank. JimW 02-16-2002, 10:41 AM Juro, I take it you found the guide spacing recomendations on Sages site. http://www.sageflyfish.com/for_the_fanatic/guideSpacingChart.shtml saltRon 02-16-2002, 11:55 AM Remember to go over size on the guides especially on the strippers. -----saltRon juro 02-16-2002, 04:17 PM Thanks guys - back from the tying clave, but have to run to family "clave" in a couple minutes... will check in later tonight or tomorrow. Comment before I go: Sage recommends that I put the guides on the white line, that solves the spline issue unless I want to second guess them... nope! :tsk_tsk: Not with my current experience level anyway. So I guess I can wrap whatever whenever... Next step: make the vee braces that will hold the rod up. I have a Flexcoat 6rpm motor but not the braces. Tomorrow... artb 02-17-2002, 02:00 PM :) My coment is the guide spacing the same on all 10 foot rods? What I have for spacing is as I list. Inches from the tip top for a 10 foot rod. 4 3/4" 10" 16" 22 1/4" 28 7/8" 35 3/4" 43 1/2" 51 5/8" 60" 69 1/4" 79 1/2" 90 1/4" Just curious :chuckle: |

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Navistar (Melrose Park, IL) in March 2016.
The whole experience was a waste of time. The plant is literally 1 MM square feet and I arbitrarily walked through mediocre laboratories which didn't have any happy employees. The interview was full of situational-based questions, but what it all comes down to is that they want you to be a nerd who has worked on engines their entire life.

I applied through college or university. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Navistar (Lisle, IL) in February 2016.
I connected with the company at an academic career fair and was offered a pre-screen interview the next day. After that, I was contacted about an on-site interview in Lisle and went a week or two later. The on-site included dinner the night before and a tour of the facility along with three interviews with different teams of two people. They took three weeks between interview and offer, which is way to long for a company of that size.

I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Navistar.
I was asked the normal engineering interview questions. Where do you see yourself in 5 years? Why are you qualified for this position? Etc. After completion of the interview I was called by the hiring manager with an offer, and after accepting the job I had to consent a drug screen and background check. The company requires a hair sample for the drug screen instead of a urine sample.

When you are filling out your application set your expected annual salary high, because they will offer you that amount or close to it.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Navistar.
Standard interview process; applied to a position based on a recommendation from a friend who worked there.

Nearly two weeks ago we relayed the story of a burgeoning summer league plan, cobbled together by the Impact Basketball training facility and promoted by Phoenix Suns wing Jared Dudley, set to attempt to replicate NBA-styled ball out in Las Vegas later this month. Real NBA rules, we were promised, as well as real NBA players. Color us real intrigued.
Now, according to Dudley and through Paul Coro of the Arizona Republic, we have a tentative list of players who are not only working out with Impact Basketball right now, but should take part in the collective once it starts up on September 23rd.
Dudley said the field of players will include Stephen Curry, Chauncey Billups, Al Harrington, John Wall, Zach Randolph, Stephen Jackson, Tayshaun Prince, Jermaine O'Neal, Austin Daye, DeMar DeRozan, Kyle Lowry, Eric Maynor and J.J. Hickson. Dudley said he is trying to recruit teammates Channing Frye, Josh Childress and Aaron Brooks to also play in the officiated series.
"You get an actual game feel," Dudley said, comparing it to other summer leagues that don't have NBA big men. "Instead of having to finish in the lane against LeBron James, I'll be finishing against Jermaine O'Neal."
There is something to that, which is why we had hope for this league and proposed a litany of hopeful traits that would help make this worth our viewing while.
We're not as hyped about the potential for bigger NBA stars, like James, stopping in; but for major hoopheads amongst NBA players (Kobe Bryant, Kevin Durant, and James, whether you believe it or not, are among that lot) there still should be an allure to a league like this. Once they get past the potential sponsorship issues with working for a company like Impact that might fly in the face of their usual personal trainers, the chance to play against some NBA depth and under solid officiating and scoring could be all a star needs to fly into Vegas.
That, and the Penn and Teller show. That big libertarian just put the little guy underwater!
We should also re-iterate our original point that, if this league comes as advertised, then this is something to get excited about. Sure, there will be missed alley-oops and probable scores in the mid-120s, but the sheer amount of NBA types will make this a nice amalgamation of the usual rookie-filled summer leagues we watch in Las Vegas every year, and the good time Rucker, Goodman, and Drew League games we've been mining for highlights all summer.

The dreams of man |

""Theology is the effort to explain the unknowable in terms of the not worth knowing.
— H.L. Mencken[1] |
Theology is in a literal etymological sense the study of God. In practice it is the intellectual study of the assumed divine, the nature of man within the context of religious doctrine, and religious "truths" from the position of a believer within a particular religion. Theologians seek to improve their subjective understanding of divine revelation to better understand the divine. Theology differs from, but is closely related to, other disciplines such as religious studies which attempt to analyse religions and beliefs objectively.
Theology is not the same as apologetics or philosophy of religion, though in practice the three get mixed up quite a bit. Most of theology does not deal with apologetics but apologetics routinely is based on natural theology, which can be included in theology or philosophy of religion.[2]
Contents |
[edit] Understanding theology for atheists
Imagine two nerds arguing about which would win in a fight: the Enterprise or a Star Destroyer.[3] And then imagine that they were part of groups that had been arguing over these questions for centuries and had exhaustively documented everything. Finally, imagine that some of them considered what they were arguing about to be things that not only actually existed, but were literally more important than life and death (others just enjoy arguing). Madness? This. Is. Theology!
[edit] Theological views
[edit] Schisms
One of the roles for theology is determining what beliefs are to constitute the official doctrine within a religion at any given time. Early Christian theologians, for example, devised doctrines such as absolution, transubstantiation, purgatory, original sin, and the Holy Trinity, which are based on tenuous interpretations of Bible scripture rather than things clearly expressed in the Bible. Nevertheless, these remain major elements of Christian theology (especially within Catholicism).
These differing views on theology often cause schisms, when the standing body of a religion cannot agree on what theological views will be official doctrine. The most obvious example of this is the major split between Roman Catholic and Protestant Christians, during the Reformation. Protestants rejected many aspects of Roman Catholic theology and dogma, claiming it has little grounding in the Bible. The other major historical schism between Roman Catholics and the Eastern Orthodox Christians was equally steeped in theological differences.
[edit] Politics
Theology can influence political movements, as individuals or a church try to find common cause between religious ideology and political issues. In the other direction political movements can influence theology as they try to enroll the church in their causes. Examples, from left to right:
- Liberation theology is an attempt to blend Marxism and Christianity.
- Feminist theology is a focus on the role of the women in the religion as well as a study of the female aspects of the divine. In Neopaganism, this is manifested as the "Goddess movement." In Christianity, it includes the theological study of the Shekina, the role of both Marys in the church and their spiritual relationship to Jesus, as well as a study of the various women like Ruth and Rebekah who hold positions of honor within the Biblical narratives. Feminist theology addresses the cultural causes and effects of the demonization of Eve and Mary of Magdala. Necessarily, feminist theology must address the codified misogyny within the Bible, including 1 Timothy 2:12, [4]which explicitly enjoins women from the ministry, and Ephesians 5:22-24 [5]which seems to remove a woman's independence in light of her relationship to her husband.
- During the fight for women's suffrage, many of the key players, such as Susan B. Anthony and Alice Paul, were Quakers, being informed by that sect's strong belief in equality of the sexes. [6]
- Liberal strains of Christianity, such as that espoused by Martin Luther King, Jr., were a major driving factor behind the U.S.'s Civil Rights Movement.
- Social justice was, originally, an attempt by the Roman Catholic Church to apply theological concepts to the social problems of the 19th century. It gave rise to the economic philosophy of distributism.
- The traditional Christian Patriarchy was influential in politics and society and got support from many theologians. Augustine of Hippo for example thought women should be mere helpmates to men, [7] Thomas Aquinas considered that "woman is defective and misbegotten" Christian feminists claim misogynist male theologians spoke for themselves and their times rather than for God. [8]
- "Christian economics" blends Austrian school economics with dominionist theology to produce a highly toxic mess popular among the loony fringe of the American religious right.
[edit] Science
Modern theologians have to address science in the context of theology, creating a host of possibilities.
- On the one side is the scientific denial seen in Young Earth Creationism and Old Earth Creationism.
- On the other side are liberal but controversial views of theistic evolution, or views that suggest God created all through the big bang[9], and the universe followed laws that God set up in order to become what we see today.
At least one organisation/journal exists that attempts to deal with the interrelation between theology and science.[10]
[edit] Theology and philosophy
Theology and philosophy are very closely related to each other though philosophy does not start from faith based concepts. Many philosophical schools have influenced theology and vice versa. In the middle ages the two concepts were nearly inseparable and more modern theologians such as Soren Kierkegaard have had profound effects on many philosophical schools. This is especially true when it comes to questions such as free will or whether life has meaning.
[edit] Critics
While it is possible to get a degree in theology from any number of world-class universities - including Oxford, Yale, Harvard, Howard, and the University of Chicago - critics dating back to the eighteenth century have questioned the merits of theology as an academic discipline.[11]
Theology is often criticized from people who are not believers. "What is the point of trying to study something you cannot even prove exists, using texts that are dubious at best (perhaps out-right frauds at worst), simply reinforcing the few remaining issues about the spiritual and natural world that have not been resolved by science?".
[edit] Duping theologians
In 2012, atheist philosopher Maarten Boudry committed a Sokal-style hoax against a theology conference[12] by submitting an intentionally absurd abstract, under an anagrammatic pseudonym,[13] that was promptly accepted.[14] Conference abstracts are not subject to peer-review, so getting this sort of material under the radar isn't as difficult as it might seem - and should a conference be desperate for the numbers, they might just accept any old rubbish to fill the slots. Yet, even a casual read-through of Boudry's abstract shows it to be clearly a load of nonsense. The opening sentences form a semi-coherent screed about Darwinian evolution:
In the Darwinian perspective, order is not immanent in reality, but it is a self-affirming aspect of reality in so far as it is experienced by situated subjects. However, it is not so much reality that is self-affirming, but the creative order structuring reality which manifests itself to us. |
Boudry even managed to shoehorn Dawkins' name into the abstract, too, suggesting that we should "reframe our sense of locatedness of existence within a the space of radical contingency of spiritual destiny"[sic] — which is, somehow, contrary to Dawkins' own assertions. The lesson to draw from this? sometimes, "expertise" really means "using big words," and it doesn't take much to impress people who are eager to have their own views reinforced no matter what. As Jerry Coyne noted:
I defy you to understand what he's saying, but of course it appeals to those who, steeped in Sophisticated Theology™, love a lot of big words that say nothing but somehow seem to criticize materialism while affirming the divine. It doesn't hurt if you diss Dawkins a couple of times, either. |
[edit] Where to start learning about theology (if you want to go down the rabbit hole)
Theology is by believers for believers, so the average logical non-believer (and many average, logical believers for that matter) needs to be prepared to do a lot of head scratching if they want to understand a given theology. Note well, if you are trying to stir the pot, prove "your theology is wrong", or bring up new points, with the 2000+ years in Christian theology, and the 4000+ years in some other theologies, that's not too likely.
Why would anyone other than an academic minded believer want to study theology? It can be extremely helpful in dealing with people of other cultures, especially if the rulers are theocratic. Understanding theology can help if you are working with people moving from one religion to another, [15] or moving out of a religion altogether, as it can prepare you for questions they might have, or concerns about the future. It might even be a simple source of amusement as one shakes their head saying "Ok, you think what now?" But theology can be taken seriously by believers, to the point that they can kill or die over their own religion's views of theology.
The first step to understanding any theology is to have a rough understanding of the tenets of a religion, and why one religion has separated from sister religions. If you do not understand, for example, the basic differences between Catholicism and Protestant Christianity, the minute details of the theology will likely escape you.
The next step is to have a familiarity with the various holy texts. It's not essential to read them too carefully, nor even cover to cover, since theology frequently exists outside of the holy texts, often only vaguely being grounded in the holy texts (despite endless claims otherwise). If you want to be armed from an atheist point of view, about problems with the holy texts, you can read commentaries like the Skeptic's Annotated Bible and the Skeptic's Annotated Qu'ran[16], both of which treat the holy texts as just texts pointing out things like logical inconsistencies in the text. They are not overly relevant, however, to understanding theology.[17]
Finally, it's time to turn to actual works of theology. A good rule of thumb is to start with a work that was written for students of theology, rather than original source theology, such as Charles Caldwell Ryrie's Basic Theology. From there, Thomas Aquinas' Summa Theologica is a compelling, original source text, outlining views that are key to any Western Christian theology. Augustine of Hippo, Martin Luther and John Calvin are critical theologians in the Western Christian context. Similarly, non-holy texts that are foundational to a religion are perhaps even more important to understanding the theology of a religion, than the "holy work" itself. British Quakers have a book called Quaker Faith and Practice that is revised by the membership regularly. Catholics have the Catechisms, Jews have the Mishnah and Talmud, and Islam has the Kalam and Fiqh.
If you're interested in Islamic theology or Jewish theology, you'll need to learn how to read Arabic or Hebrew respectively. The Qur'an and the Torah lose a lot in translation, and the serious student needs to be able to read them in their original.

HELP: power option doesn't work - screen saver doesn't start!
I have an ASUS notebook running windows 7 64-bit. I am using the QuietOffice power profile, however the screensaver won't kick in no matter what I do, and the display does not turn off even though I set it to be after 5-minutes of inactivity. I don't know if there is something running in the background... I have turned off my usb wireless mouse, and nothing....

This is another case of factory bloatware interfering - in this case a useless factory utility overriding Win7's superior built-in version.
Googling the Quiet Office feature of Asus there are multiple reported problems. Best to default to the Win7 built-in Power Options in Control Panel. Set up a Balanced Plan unless you're a gamer then use High Performance. Here are other tips for cleaning up factory bloatware |

Thank you - I switched the power setting from all the customary PowerGear options offered by Asus to the standard "balanced" setting and right now display-dim + display-off seems to be working like a charm.

The price paid for a MacBook precludes the need for sponsors to lard a consumer PC with trialware to cover a profit margin. The same is the case with most business computers.
Even more insidious now is that these bloatware sponsors have pressured manufacturers to enforce the bloatware by not providing clean-copy installation DVD's required under their agreement with MS. So millions of consumers buying PC's don't even know how truly feather-light and instantaneous Win7 is when weighed down under a heap of crap. Many tech enthusiasts find a clean-copy DVD of their OS version and reinstall using the OEM Product Key on the COA sticker on machine: re-install windows 7 |

thanks for the info - I will definitely try to do a clean install when I have some time. I agree with you about the tradeoff with macbooks being higher priced and less bloatware. Overall I think Windows 7 does a fairly good job of placing non-essential programs in the background so they're not all in your face all the time (like windows Vista boo). I just hate all the tweaking/navigating through bloatware that has to be done to perform simple tasks like timing my display to turn off or sometimes open a single AV file (absolutely hate WMP, set all my files to open with VLC, clean, simple, no hassle). Okay enough ranting

You can turn off WMP in Control Panel>Programs and Features>Turn On and Off Windows Features. It rids some services which are otherwise chronic - check in Services.msc afterward to be sure.

The Effect of 9-Ending Prices on Retail Sales: A Quantitative UK Based Field Study
Surveys suggest that around 64% of retail shelf prices end in 9: The preponderance of 9-ending prices is not a new phenomenon and has been the subject of much comment and discussion over the past 70 years. Despite this broad interest, very few empirically based studies have been conducted in order to assess the effectiveness of the practice; no quantitative study can be found that has assessed the reaction of UK consumers toward 9-ending prices. In this paper we present the results of a large-scale store-based trial in which a selection of product prices were rounded up from the retailers' traditional 9-ending prices to round-pound prices. The results from this research suggest that the adoption of round-pound prices may be more effective, with trial sales increasing. The data yields an interesting insight into the effectiveness of the practice, and provides clear indication of the value further research in this area would bring.Document Type: Research Article

As Trudeau soars, Wynne sags – and Patrick Brown waits in the wings
Submitted by Geoffrey Stevens on Mon, 05/02/2016 - 09:49Can Justin Trudeau prevent Patrick Brown from becoming the next premier of Ontario?
This may seem like an odd question, but bear with me for a moment.
Let's turn the clock back three years, to April 2013 when Trudeau was elected national leader of Liberal party. One of his earliest and most enthusiastic supporters was the new Liberal leader in Ontario, Kathleen Wynne, who had been sworn in as premier just two months earlier.

7 Ways to Update a Room
When you're looking for a change in décor, you're not always ready to completely redo a room. For the times when you're looking for an upgrade, but not looking to empty your wallet, consider these 7 ways to make a small change for a big effect.
1. Add some color.
Painting a whole room can be a big (and expensive) undertaking. Instead, paint the ceiling. This will add a huge pop of color and won't require a lot of time or paint.
2. Create a focal point.
Walk into your room and see which wall your eyes fall on first. Make that into a focal point by doing something big there. Hanging different sized pictures and decorations either in a pattern of more scattered can create a lot of visual interest.
3. Light it up.
Does the room look a bit dim? Consider a fun new lamp. Lighting can make all the difference in how you perceive the mood of a room. Choosing a lamp that accents other room décor or stands out bright adds a whole new layer.
4. Change up the sheets.
If the room you're sprucing up is a bedroom, the bedding is a great place to start. The bed is the focal point of the bedroom so it makes sense that it should look sharp. Consider new bedding to make the space feel fresh and inviting.
5. Hang a mirror.
Mirrors are quite possibly the most cost-effective upgrade you can make. They brighten the room, they make it seem bigger, and they add visual interest.
6. Lay a rug.
Whether you've got hardwood, tile, or carpet, an area rug can add texture, color, and design to your room. Choose a neutral hue to accent other pieces or bold and exciting patterns to make it catch the eye.
7. Upgrade the shelves.
So you've had that old, cheap bookshelf for a few years. It holds your books and trinkets, but doesn't do much for the eyes. Ditch it and add some floating shelves instead. These shelves save space, are easy to DIY, and look fabulous in any room.

Google has announced that sitelinks on desktop search ads, first introduced in February this year, are now rolling out to users in all countries where AdWords is available.
The sitelinks extension allows advertisers to show links to various pages within the website below their ad text. In early testing, Google claimed ads with sitelinks saw an average of 30 percent higher CTRs.
Advertisers can create up to ten sitelinks when selecting campaign settings, from the Ad extensions tab. There is a checkbox in the settings to activate the feature, which says, "Sitelinks: Extend my ads with links to sections of my site."
Ads may show two, four, or six sitelinks in addition to the site URL. Ads displayed on mobile phones can show up to two sitelinks, maximum.
Each link should have a unique landing page and there should be one ad to match each sitelink, at a "bare minimum," according to Google.
Advertisers must delete the "http" when entering page URLs in order for the sitelinks to work. The order in which links are entered does factor into how often a sitelink will appear in an ad.
Google recommends keeping sitelink text "short and sweet," to increase the amount of links they can show in each ad.
Enhanced sitelinks will only show in ads above the top organic search results, not in the sidebar. Advertisers struggling to reach the top ad position can try to improve their Quality Score or increase their max bid to increase the likelihood their enhanced sitelinks will appear.
In the announcement, Senior AdWords Engineer Pramod Adiddam warns, "Like other forms of sitelinks, enhanced sitelinks are generated automatically so they might vary in appearance. And you might not see them show 100% of the time even when you're eligible."
Are you using enhanced sitelinks in your campaigns? Let us know what experience you've had with them!

Vulnerability, Crisis and Debt Maturity: Do IMF Interventions Shorten the Length of Borrowing?
This paper studies how IMF lending affects countries' bonds maturity. Debt maturity was claimed to be one of the causes of the crisis of recent years: Too much short-term debt would be the seed of self-fulfilling crisis. In turn, one of the goals of the IMF interventions is to prevent crises and to alleviate their effects once they occur. I find evidence that, on average, IMF interventions reduce countries' debt maturity which would be a non-desirable effect. However, I also find evidence that the final effect depends on countries' fundamentals. The IMF would make countries borrow at longer terms (or reduce less the maturity) when the fundamentals are relatively weak.
