The bones of this cottage are classically Scottish. Joyce Campbell, our lovely owner, has renovated this gorgeous wee home to encapsulate the traditional Scottish feel which we know our guests can't get enough of. Dating back to the early 1800's, Joyce has kept the essential highland feel of this croft in play, while completely rebuilding and refurbing this croft. It sleeps 4 comfortably with 3 bathrooms- so plenty of space! A perfect spot for well behaved dogs on request.

A renovated stone building features a traditional slate roof, with a welcoming wooden door at its center. Surrounding the structure, grassy areas create an open setting. The clear blue sky serves as a backdrop, enhancing the rural charm of the landscape.
