We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful cottage! It’s decorated to a really high standard, with a modern, stylish feel, and had absolutely everything we needed for a relaxing break. The huge back garden was a real highlight, and the hot tub was the perfect added luxury.The location is fantastic, close to everything you need, yet it feels wonderfully secluded and peaceful. Having a lovely farm shop and restaurant just a minute’s walk away was an added bonus!We couldn’t have asked for more and would highly recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway. We’d love to return!

Very cosy and a home from home. This lovely cottage was perfect for our family break. Very close to all our needs, line our favourite farm park, dalscone. Also shops and the town with restaurants and interests very close by. Perfect garden which was huge and fully enclosed. Jacuzzi was just brilliant. Will hopefully be back.
