Guests come back year after year to enjoy The Lodge’s homely charm, wonderful location and stunning views. The nearest town is Kinross with Perth and Edinburgh in easy reach along the M90, and Fife’s beaches and many wonderful golf courses all close by. We are very well situated and within easy reach of many key sites and cities such as Edinburgh, Perth, St Andrews, Stirling, Glasgow etc. And if you are an Outlander fan, you'll be spoilt for choice as so many of the TV locations are very close by (sadly Jamie is not still there but they make for a great day out all the same!) The property sleeps up to five comfortably. There’s one double bedroom, a twin and a single, although the twin can be converted into a double on request, and an additional child’s bed or cot can be provided too if needed for a small additional charge. There is also a shower wet room (ensuite to the master bedroom) which is wheelchair accessible and a family bathroom with a shower over the bath. There’s a well equipped kitchen which makes it very easy for you to cook up some wonderful meals while you are staying. And if you have a baby let us know so we can put a high chair out for you too. The sitting room is very closy and comfortable and has a wee log burner which is great to snuggle up infront of in the evening! We've also got some board games and books for you to use during your stay. Our sunroom is a guest favourite! It's bright and cheerful, and a wonderful spot for relaxing in and enjoying the amazing Loch views (sunrise with a cuppa, and the sunset with a glass of wine are a must!). The cottage is all on one level, which makes it very easy for elderly guests or anyone who has accessiblity concerns and may struggle with stairs. If you do have an accessibility concerns please do let me know To find out more about this please do give us a call. The cottage garden, complete with bbq, garden furniture and a covered patio, is fully enclosed making it safe and easy for those with small children or pets. We have private parking at the cottage, for two cars, but if you need any more space there is another spot on the other side of the road you can use too. We totally understand that dogs are very much part of many people's families and so they are very welcome to come and enjoy all the Lodge too, There is a small extra charge for this of 30 GBP and we respectfully ask that owners keep them off the furniture and do not allow them into the bedrooms as we are also aware that there are guests who don't have dogs and may have allergies. Also, whilst the front and back gardens are fully enclosed, if your dogs are very active they may try and jump it so we do recommend that you keep an eye on them especially in the front as it is by a road. All prices quoted include heating and electricity, luxury bed linen, towels, a basket of logs and a small welcome pack. We also provide you with coffee, tea, sugar, milk, toilet roll, washing up liquid and general household cleaning stuffs too. Smoking is not permitted anywhere inside this property but is allowed in the garden. There are loads of things to do when you come and stay and in the house is a folder full of suggestions and brochures to help you decide what would suit you best and our website has lots of info on it too. But with so much to choose from we are very happy to help you plan you stay - just let us know what your interests are and we can guide you as best we can! The neighbouring village, Kinnesswood has frequently won the prize for the Best Small Village in The Keep Scotland Beautiful Awards and holds it this year again. A wander through its old cottages and lanes is a lovely way to spend some time, before heading back to the cottage for tea! There are lots of other lovely walks close by too - there's a new path/cycle route that runs all round Loch Leven, RSPB Loch Leven is at the south end of the loch and there are a couple of excellent farm shops to stop at for snacks and meals. There's also Castle Island, that you can see from our cottage. Mary Queen of Scots was imprisoned there and there are boat trips out to it in the summer for you to have a look around. It really is a must-go-and-see and has a great picnic spot! The Lodge is also fantastically situated for those who want to walk to a pub or restaurant. Less than half a mile down the road is Balgedie Toll Tavern, a great local pub, and just a little bit further is Loch Leven's Larder, an award winning deli, cafe/restaurant, and gift shop. There's also The Well in Scotlandwell which is a great pub too. All are family friendly and dog friendly too! Kinross also has lots of places to eat and there are some other special places we can recommend to go to too. Please contact us if you'd like to know more. If you are on face book or insta you can find more details about the cottage there too, just look for Balgedie House and Lodge. We very much look forward to welcoming you to stay! ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Massage ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Limo/town car service -
