The layout of the cottage is ideal for families or friends - it has three comfortable bedrooms, two rooms upstairs with King-size beds and one flexible room downstairs with two singles that can be zipped together to form a Super-king bed. At the heart of the home is an open plan kitchen dining area, where you can cook together, linger over freshly ground coffee or gather for evening meals after a day outdoors. The living room is the perfect spot to kick back and relax with a large plush sofa beside the wood burning stove & a vintage-style record player to enjoy your favourite records. Floor to ceiling windows and sliding doors flood the room with natural light and frame uninterrupted views of the rolling hills beyond. Step straight out onto the private decking to soak up the scenery – a tranquil escape in every season. \*Please note that the cottage is located near a working farm, so you may occasionally see agricultural vehicles in the area – part of the charm of countryside living. During snowy winter months, access to the cottage may require a suitable 4x4/AWD vehicle. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the cottage: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shower ### Living spaces - Wood stove ### Entertainment - Games - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Fenced yard - Patio ### Laundry - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ## Similar properties ![Sauna, hot tub, steam room](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/1000000/10000/200/168/3e4491b9.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Thainstone House Inverurie - Pool - Spa - Pet-friendly - Parking included 8.4 Very good 407 reviews £60 includes taxes & fees 5 Apr - 6 Apr [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-05&endDate=2026-04-06&selected=168&PinnedHotelID=168&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property entrance](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/29000000/28830000/28824500/28824407/b63b4b82.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Sandman Signature Aberdeen Hotel & Spa George Street - Spa - Pet-friendly - Free Wi-Fi - Restaurant 8.8 Excellent 1,147 reviews £56 includes taxes & fees 22 Mar - 23 Mar [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-22&endDate=2026-03-23&selected=28824407&PinnedHotelID=28824407&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fireplace](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/2000000/1430000/1422400/1422395/f7e006f4.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Balmoral Arms Ballater - Pet-friendly - Parking included - Free Wi-Fi - Restaurant 8.6 Excellent 333 reviews £108 includes taxes & fees 26 Mar - 27 Mar [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-26&endDate=2026-03-27&selected=1422395&PinnedHotelID=1422395&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Breakfast, lunch, dinner served;
