Before going to the Isle of Iona in the Lower Hebrides of Scotland, we needed a safe and secure place to park our hire car...Scottish for rental car. Stoddart's came highly recommended. I emailed them prior to leaving the US and received a very nice email from Sally with a map and directions for leaving our car. I booked the space immediately.
When we arrived on a Saturday in early May, we were cheerfully greeted by John. We parked our car and then, to our surprise, Sally was there with a van to take us to the ferry station. How nice was that? On the ride to the station, Sally recommended some sights we should take in while on Iona, particularly visiting the Isle of Staffa to see the puffins and Fingal's Cave.
We later learned that if we took her suggestion, it would delay our return to Oban until after Stoddart's closed on Monday. We emailed them that info before we left for Staffa in case there would be a problem keeping our car an extra night. They were so gracious and told us to definitely go. We were very grateful. Oh, they were only charging us £7 (about $8.88) a night.
The Scottish people as a whole were very nice, but Sally and John were beyond nice. They were generous with information, took excellent care of our hire car, and were very kind to us. I cannot recommend their important service more highly. read more
