Welcome. Our country cottage is nestled within the beautiful Scottish countryside, on the edge of our family farm. Fantastically placed for exploring Aberdeenshire, Moray, Speyside, the Highlands and all that Scotland has to offer. The cottage is ideal for families or small groups of friends looking for a Scottish country break.

Peacefully remote but is still within a fifteen-minute drive from either Keith, Dufftown or Huntly.

The space
The cottage is set among 1.5 acres of grounds, which also contains the ruins of an old mill. There is generous parking space available with steps through the garden to the cottage.

The cottage sleeps 6 people, in three bedrooms. Comprising of two comfortable king-size bedrooms (one with an en-suite) and a twin bedroom.

Stepping inside the front door takes you into the hallway, with plenty room to hang up jackets and store boots. There is also space in an outbuilding for storing fishing, ski-ing or other outdoor gear.

The kitchen forms the heart of the home, featuring a range cooker, great for cooking meals during your stay. The kitchen is amply equipped, with all the tools to make a Sunday Roast, should you desire.

The lounge is a cosy room with an open fire and large windows to view the surrounding countryside and to spy on the local wildlife.

A conservatory is set off the kitchen and provides a great space to relax and connect to the garden, while still being sheltered from the Scottish elements.

Within less than a hours drive from the cottage you could be dipping your toes into the sea on the Moray Coast or rambling in the Cairngorm mountains. The local area has a wealth to offer, surrounded by whisky distilleries, great food, rich history and beautiful scenery.

Whether you decide to kick back and relax or explore the surrounding area, we take pride in making you feel at home in the cottage and hope you enjoy your time visiting the local area.

Clean bedding and towels are provided.

Guest access
Guests will have access to the entire cottage and surrounding gardens, including the outdoor seating areas where you are more than welcome to dine ‘al-fresco’, enjoy a morning cuppa or an evening dram – the place is yours to enjoy on your stay.

Other things to note
Mobile phone signal can be patchy within the cottage on some networks (however some may find this to be a great way to switch off and make the most of relaxing on your break), a better signal can be obtained by moving into a more open area on the property. WiFi is provided throughout the cottage and calls can be made through WiFi calling on the majority of smart phones.

While the main house is situated all on one level, there are steps from the car park up to the cottage, steps at the front door and also from the kitchen into the conservatory. These can be viewed in the photographs included within this listing.

Hello there! I hope to welcome many guests to our cosy country cottage and to the local area. I live just along the road on the family farm, with my husband, Phil, and young family. Phil has lived on the farm all his life and is the fourth generation of his family to farm here. We love our home and enjoy welcoming our guests and enabling them to share the beauty and tranquility that our wee corner of Scotland has to offer. The cottage itself is peacefully remote but is less than a fifteen-minute drive from either Keith, Dufftown or Huntly. Some things I can't live without: - great food (especially cakes & bakes) - a good cup of tea - country music - farming - fresh air - wide open spaces We love a relaxed, chilled break with plenty of places to investigate. "Merry Everything and a Happy Always!"
