Ardlogie Cottage is a well-appointed semi-detached cottage that showcases comfy, bright communal spaces; it truly feels like a home away from home. Ardlogie comfortably accommodates 5 guests for a perfect getaway surrounded by family, friends and loved ones.
The open plan sitting/ dining room is a cosy place to relax in front of the wood-burning stove or tucking into a delicious, hearty meal. The ground floor also holds a single bedroom featuring a mini library and is a peaceful haven to rest in. The elegant bathroom downstairs is equipped with a bath with a shower over. Throughout the cottage is thoughtfully decorated with beautiful ornaments, paintings done by the owner, and if you've a keen eye, there's a quaint addition of a wee mouse's house built under the staircase in the living area.
The dining room table comfortably seats 5 guests adjacent to lovely French doors which open to the patio area and outdoors seating, ideal for dining al fresco and a fire pit for cosying next to on colder evenings. The kitchen is neatly tucked away in the corner but is well-equipped for cooking up delicious meals.
Upstairs are two more bedrooms, a twin and a double. Both are enhanced by countryside vistas and ample storage for guests. The double bedroom has a king-size bed and an en-suite shower room; each room is brilliantly finished to a high standard.
The cottage is semi-detached with its own access door but shares its approach and large enclosed front garden with the neighbouring property. Private parking down a short entrance road is available adjacent to the garden.
