About this property

This reverse-level dwelling is the ideal location for four guests seeking a relaxing stay in Scotland. As you pull into the gravelled driveway, admire the beautiful wooden architecture of the lodge whilst making your way over to the front door. Step inside the bright and airy hallway and be greeted by the well thought out utility area. Discover three delightfully decorated bedrooms behind beautiful oak cottage doors, each featuring a Smart TV. The master bedroom boasts a spacious king-size bed, ample storage for all of your belongings and a large patio door that opens out to the garden, as well as a contemporary en-suite with walk-in waterfall shower, so you can really make the most of your time getting ready in the mornings. Unpack your belongings in the charming double bedroom, complete with lovely oak furniture and checkered curtains, or make yourself at home in the twin bedroom where you can pair up with a friend. Draw a warm bath and indulge in some alone time in the chic ground-floor bathroom before venturing up to the first floor, where you can regroup with friends in the sociable open-plan living space, with a balcony to enjoy the surrounding landscapes. Gather at the fabulous and contemporary benched dining area and plan your adventures for the next few days, whilst someone heads into the fully-fitted kitchen area for refreshments.

    It was the perfect home from home with everything you could possibly need thought out so well. A lovely warm welcome awaited us with some freshly baked cakes and welcome card, a fantastic information folder was left for use too.

  • Ruth

    All the little extras that are usually missing were provided eg toilet rolls, dishwasher tabs, cleaning products and kitchen essentials. The beds are super comfy and the setting / garden is a lovely bonus. The views from the windows are magnificent and we saw the northern lights from the garden. One of the best cottages we have stayed in.
