Pros:

Mi è piaciuto molto la posizione. Adoro il mare e dopo cena ho fatto due passi anche se ad agosto faceva un po freddo, ma dopo una giornata in giro per la Scozia ci voleva, con i gabbiani in sottofondo.

Cons:

Non ho nulla da lamentare. Siamo arrivati tardi e andati via presto per cui non abbiamo goduto molto di tutti i confortevoli.

Hotel/ristorante familiare in un paesino della costa
Pros:

La camera era piccola ma molto accogliente, dotata di tutto. Il personale gentilissimo e molto simpatico, ci siamo fermati a cena al ristorante e abbiamo chiacchierato con le cameriere. La colazione della mattina dopo molto buona. Johnshaven é stata una piacevole scoperta di tranquillità

Très joli lieu de séjour
Pros:

Appartement situé en face de l'Anchor Hotel, arrangé avec goût et très bien équipé. Accueil adorable des propriétaires et le restaurant vaut le détour, y compris pour le petit déjeuner qui restera l'un des meilleurs que nous ayons pris lors de notre séjour écossais.

Cons:

Un peu de chauffage, même au mois d'aout, serait appréciable.

Spacious, quiet apartment in a perfect location
Pros:

The apartment we stayed in was very spacious and quiet. It had all the kitchen appliances we needed to prepare dinner. The location was excellent, right on the small harbour of Johnshaven. The owner was also incredibly kind and helpful. We had a lovely stay.

Un luogo di cui mi sono innamorata e non vedo l’ora di tornarci
Pros:

La stanza è adorabile, piccola ma accogliente, ci avrei passato volentieri più notti del previsto. La posizione dell’hotel è molto caratteristica e anche la struttura tipica ti fa immergere nella vita del luogo. Personale gentilissimo e ci hanno fatto cenare anche se era tardi. Colazione fantastica! Ne vale la pena! Il pesce è buonissimo!

Cons:

Mi è piaciuto tutto sinceramente

Super consigliato per visitare la zona e respirare la tradizione.
Pros:

Posticino delizioso fronte mare in un piccolo borgo di pescatori.
Personale squisito come le aragoste pescate in loco.
Comunità ospitale e spiritosa.
Ottima cucina sia per cena che per la colazione.

Cons:

Stanca e bagno un po piccolini ma accoglienti.
