Garden Cottage - The Cottage is set in a stunning location.
Cottage with 2 Bedrooms, Sleeps 4, Garden
Garden Cottage has a secluded setting, and is perfectly located for a variety of walks in the Achnashellach area including several Munros. The cottage is set in a stunning position at the foot of the mountain ‘Fuar Tholl’ in a mature garden full of Rhododendrons and Azaleas.
Garden Cottage underwent a complete renovation in 2003 and has been refurbished to a high standard with under-floor heating, oak floors and an air filtering system. This is a comfortably modern cottage which retains its original character and has the feel of a family home. Most of the rooms in the house are sunny and south facing.
The famous West Highland Railway stops just behind Garden Cottage at Achnashellach station. The scenery on the journey to the coast at Kyle is spectacular and it is well worth a trip. Why not stop at Plockton, which offers many attractions and good restaurants.
The sitting room has a wood burning stove a new corner sofa, two armchairs, a video and DVD player with a small library for both completing the furnishings. There is currently no TV reception.
The kitchen is well equipped with ample new pans and china, a gas hob and an electric oven/grill, microwave, fridge/freezer, [radio/cassette/CD player], and washing machine there is a drying room adjacent which has an ironing board, iron and drying rail. The dining room off the kitchen has an antique dresser, window seat and oval dining table. Also next to the kitchen, is a light study, which has french windows overlooking the garden.
Upstairs are two twin bed rooms with wonderful views over the garden and mountains, both have 6 foot beds, wardrobes and a chest of drawers. Both bedrooms can accommodate a cot (which we can supply). The duvets and pillows are hypo-allergenic. Bed linen and towels are included, and the bed linen is changed weekly if your stay is longer than 7 nights.
The bathroom has a toilet, washbasin and a powerful electrostatic shower over the deep bath. The heating system is very effective and there is always plenty of hot water.
The immediate garden around the cottage is for the use of the guests and garden furniture is provided. The garden is full of wildlife and it is not unusual to see an otter or deer. Garden Cottage is a few hundred yards away from the Lair River, which has a waterfall near to the cottage. This is not in the grounds of the cottage but there is no fencing so parents need to be aware of this if they bring their children. A dog is allowed with prior agreement, but must be kept off the furniture and not left alone in the property.
Broadband access but no landline telephone at this time.
