The house was wonderful and was a great base for us to visit some of our favourite places on Tiree. The house had everything that we needed and Jill responded positively to any questions we had. We had a brilliant time walking, swimming and watching all the wild life.

Drovers was lovely in all respects. It had everything we needed, was very comfortable and central to get all around the island. We really enjoyed reading the information about the history of the house and island, reading novels set on Scottish Islands and also even completed the jigsaw - all from the bookcase in the house!

Drovers is such a magical wee place. I felt so at home there and would have stayed longer if I could.
Kitchen has all you need, great bathroom and excellent shower.
Bedroom extravagance was the electric blankets! So comfy.
Loved my stay.

Drovers was a smart, snug and almost unique thatched cottage - we only saw two other modern thatched 'black houses' on our island of Tiree. Very clean [not black; the old 'black houses' of long ago had no chimney, so smoke dispersed through the thatch], well equipped and perfect for a couple, Drovers was a good base from which to explore the lovely island. Talking to locals, it was well known; "Oh yes, you're at Drovers!". I was even directed to the owners car, by the local barista, which was parked outside his shop at the village of Scarinish. The benches outside Drovers let us watch the evening wild life, mainly small birds but also two Hen Harriers, and one night a big Otter made a noisy raid on the Lapwings nests!
Jill also warned us, very timely, to book the CalMac ferries for our popular Saturday sailings, as soon as the summer bookings opened online.
Excellent!

We had the most wonderful stay at Drovers Cottage. The location is idyllic, and the charming cottage (even more beautiful in real life) has everything you need for a cosy stay on Tiree. It was so peaceful and rejuvenating, after just one week, we feel like new people.
Thank you again Jill and Adrian for welcoming us, we hope to come back again soon.

Lovely peaceful location. Ideally situated in the almost centre of the island so that all locations were easily accessible by car.
Accommodation was very clean and the space well designed to maximise
the space.

The cottage is so beautiful that people stop to take photos and inside it doesn't disappoint with everything you could possibly need. We wanted a perfect escape from it all and Drovers and Tiree delivered.

Drovers Cottage is just comfy and cosy and an amazing place to stay. Tiree is a little paradise and the cottage is like the cherry on top. I've rarely seen such a well equipped rental place, it has everything and more. The shower is amazing, really powerful and the bed invites to having a lie in.
I've already booked for next year and can't wait!

I had an absolutely amazing week at Drovers. The house is well equipped and leaves nothing to be desired. It's so beautiful, both modern and cozy inside. I'll gladly return.

To sum up Drovers Cottage in one word, PERFECT
A traditional cottage outside with a tastefully modernised interior.
It may be small but it has everything you need especially the well equipped kitchen.
The kitchen even has a slow cooker. Ideal for an evening meal after one of the many walks on the Island.
I was lucky with the weather but the modern heating keeps the cottage nice and warm with the bonus of the multi fuel burner.
Storage space is limited but the bathroom is modern and spacious with a decent size shower.
The location is amazing if you are looking to relax and unwind.
So much wildlife in the adjoining fields and only a few minutes walk to the Loch, Sand Dunes and several Beaches.
Bike hire available 10 mins walk along the road.
I have stayed in a few fantastic properties but this is the only one I have rated 5 stars in all categories.

Our second visit and for sure not our last.
Jill and Adrian could not do more to make
your visit perfect. Loathed to admit just
how wonderful this cottage is, for fear we
will struggle to book it again in the future
What the cottage lacks in size it makes up
for in character - we absolutely adore it.
An added bonus this year was the
wonderful cakes from becky bakes - even
preparing gluten free
Thank you for another wonderful holiday.
