Once inside, take over the superbly equipped shaker style fitted kitchen and rustle up a hearty meal to be enjoyed at the dining table.

Two plush sofas and an electric fire invite you to settle down, whilst the wall-mounted Smart TV provides entertainment for the evening.

There’s plenty of wonderful walking in the area; consider planning a hike to Claife Heights Summit, Biskey Howe Viewpoint or Orrest Head and be rewarded with stunning views.
