We had a wonderful 2 weeks at Baillies Cottage in August. We used it as a base to explore Scotland from Edinburgh up to Aviemore.Walking, cycling and kayaking are all on the doorstep, literally.Stargazing with no light pollution was great. And so, so quiet. One night, we had a small herd of deer come down to the water to drink when we where outside.The cottage setup has been really well thought out. 4 bedrooms really helped everyone to have their own space. The central room was ideal for family time, and plenty of games and books available to peruse.Will we go back? Yes!
