Your Space
Made of stone and topped with slate, Keeper’s Cottage is wrapped by a wild garden with an outdoor dining table plus a firepit and cosy seating – the perfect spot for stargazing and enjoying evening drinks.
Inside is a homely yet stylish patchwork of scented antique Scots pine, tactile tweed furnishings, local craft and plenty of spaces to simply stare at the boundless views. The spacious kitchen is a mosaic of wood and leads into a dining room and living area that share a welcoming double-sided open fireplace. A boot room offers the practicality of storage and a washer and dryer.
Upstairs three bedrooms are cosily ensconced in the eaves and clad in wood. Deep copper tubs in private bathrooms are the perfect finale to a day in the wild.
