This traditional Victorian cottage has been completely renovated to an incredibly high standard using Farrow & Ball paints and vintage inspired flooring from Fired Earth and traditional cast iron fireplaces and radiators.
Traditionally Victorian, the cottage is compact but beautifully appointed with new and hand painted vintage furniture. The little cast iron fireplace in the sitting room is in perfect working order but has been renovated to gas for ease of use.
To make your stay feel special we always ensure there’s luxurious bed linens, candles, lots of fluffy white towels and fine Scottish hand-soap and hand lotion.
