About this property

Blacksmiths Cottage - a detached cottage that sleeps up to 6 guests

The Blacksmiths Cottage is situated on the banks of the River Oude and is in an idyllic setting overlooking the tennis court and stables. A patio door from the living room opens onto the privacy of a small garden area with garden seating fenced to the river’s edge. The garden is securely fenced and extends around three sides of the cottage. Car parking is at the side and to the rear of the cottage.

The cottage front door leads into a small hall and into the open-plan sitting room (equipped with a double sofa bed for occasional guests, CTV, DVD)/dining area/kitchen (with oven, hob, fridge with ice-box, microwave & dishwasher) with open fire; spacious double bedroom with en-suite shower room (with walk-in electric shower cubicle, w.c & wash-hand basin); twin bedroom; bathroom (with bath, over-bath electric shower, w.c. & wash-hand basin). Large patio doors overlook the river and open out into the garden. The double and twin bedrooms are at the rear of the cottage and are divided by the main bathroom.

Dr Sanders Edinburgh
Beautiful cottage. We really enjoyed our stay and the stream behind and private garden was a treat. The facilities as always are wonderful and I hope that the shower of herring is open fully next year.

Another Wonderful Week At Melfort Village
Our second visit and definitely don’t regret coming back. Beautiful location, wonderful accommodation and onsite facilities. Staff are so friendly and go above and beyond to make your stay a great one. Particularly enjoyed our meal at The Lord of the Isles, great food and customer service. We also ate onsite which was lovely too. Melfort Village is beautifully kept and a excellent place to go with children and your four legged friend. We would love to return again in the future.

brilliant holiday extension for us with our two dogs
Fabulous quiet spot with brilliant views and a Scottish river (decent sized babbling brook) adjacent to the garden. Very dog friendly place and a decent bar and restaurant. Couldn't ask for more.

Lovely cottage in a beautiful location.
We enjoyed our stay at Melfort Village all the staff were great, friendly and very helpful, we had a problem with the heating which was dealt with without delay. We found the cottage cold but the weather on the week we were there was awful, the heating bill at the end of our stay was very expensive but they are in the process of upgrading the old storage heaters.

Shoal of herring
The shoal of herring really is very poor now. That’s plenty of characters submitted. No wonder the restaurant is so empty.
