Description from owner

Description

In the grounds of Glenfarquhar Lodge, this former bakehouse has been tastefully converted into a unique two bedroomed character property. The property was converted in 2007 to a very high standard, and has been equipped to a very high level.

A perfect property for anyone looking for a quiet and relaxing break away from the hustle and bustle, but equally a good base for exploring North East Scotland, with its castles, whisky distilleries and lovely nearby coastline, to name but a few of its attractions.

Further details

This property is available from 3.00 pm or later, with normal weekly changeover being on a Saturday.

Shorter or longer breaks may be available, subject to time of year. Prices range from £380 to £550 for a week, which normally runs from Saturday afternoon.

Short breaks may be available, outside of any bank or school holidays. A minimum booking of two nights always applies.

This cottage is available from 3.00 pm or later, in order that the property is fully cleaned, and ready for you to put the kettle on and your feet up.

The rental price is inclusive of all heating, electricity,linen, towels etc. It also includes cleaning products, kitchen towel and loo rolls, even tea coffee and sugar are provided.

Checkout time is no later than 10.30am to allow for thorough cleaning between quests.

This is non smoking accommodation.

Please contact me if you need any further information or clarification on anything.

Further details indoors

This property sleeps up to 5 people comfortably, if you require accommodation for more than 5. A cot and high chair etc. are available on request. The cottage is light and airy and the décor is warm and inviting with quality fittings throughout.

This is a non-smoking property, and I am sorry but we are not able to accept dogs.

All accommodation is centrally heated with a combi boiler for constant hot water. Entrance porch/boot room, large enough for a pushchair.

Dining table and chairs for up to 6 people. Small book library and games, with tourist information and maps provided. Steps down to kitchen.

Both bedrooms are extremely well appointed, and all Egyptian cotton linens and great towels are provided. The bedrooms are at opposite ends of the cottage, so great for privacy.

Bathroom: A spacious room with quality suite, large deep Bath with shower over, W.C. and basin.

We have a cot, travel cot/playpen and high chair which are available - Please note that only a limited amount of cot linen is provided - including fitted sheet -as parents prefer to bring their own.

Response from the owner Thank you for your review, I am sorry that you were displeased with aspects of your stay. The property is advertised as having parking for two cars, you had four cars including your visitors. This makes the parking and moving of vehicles rather difficult. Your own car was never in the way, just those of your guests. There is no wi-fi in this property, and that is why is is not advertised as having any. The property was only booked for 4 people, and you had overnight guests which invalidates my insurance, and my fire regulations, I asked that your quests leave by 11.00 also for the peace of my other guests.I am sorry if you thought that that was unreasonable. You do not mention that you had a great many people visiting you that made full use of additional facilities which are not advertised, I hope that you all enjoyed them. There is indeed a horse on site, and your party and guests seemed to enjoy going into his stable and meeting him on various occasions.
