The charming cottage is located just off the square in the picturesque village of Archiestown. The property sleeps six guests and is ideal for large families and groups of friends who enjoy exploring local history and getting out and about in nature. There are some fabulous castles nearby, including Ballindalloch (9 miles), and attractive towns and villages to visit. You’ll also be 22 miles from Moray’s dramatic coastline. After a busy day, return to your cosy cottage to snuggle by the wood burner or dine in the courtyard. The stone cottage is bursting with character, with exposed stonework and original features throughout. The decor proudly celebrates the property’s heritage and reflects the local landscape, with beautiful tartan soft furnishings and a collection of wildlife artwork. Enter the cottage into the cosy lounge, where sofas and armchairs are nestled around a wood burner and a Smart TV. This is a lovely place to gather in the evenings, to chat about your day or watch a movie. One of the bedrooms – a double – is located off the lounge and has an en-suite shower room (also accessed from the hallway). The kitchen/diner is a bright, sociable space, with a large dining table set next to a feature stone wall and wood burner, and a kitchen area with everything you need to cater for the group. A staircase leads from the kitchen to a king-size bedroom with a striking stone wall, and a stylish bathroom. The final bedroom, a twin, is reached via the wooden staircase in the lounge. As this room is in the eaves, you may experience restricted head height in some areas. Outside, a lovely courtyard garden awaits. There is furniture for al fresco dining and the area is fully enclosed, making it perfect for four-legged guests. A parking space for one car can be found to the rear of the cottage, with further parking available in the village square (subject to availability).
