The Bothy has been completely modernised but retains the original stone wall as a feature in the bedroom, which uniquely has a log burning stove. A perfect place to tuck up in bed with a good book, or sit in a chair and simply contemplate the garden
The rest of the accommodation comprises a sitting room/kitchen and a new bathroom with shower. The kitchen is very well equipped and has a dining table and chairs, as well as comfortable seating. In addition to the log burning stove in the bedroom, there is electric heating throughout the Bothy to provide a cosy haven whether summer or winter.
The Bothy has its own area of private garden but guest can enjoy the beauty of the owner's more extensive garden which is alive with birds. If you are lucky you will meet our friendly robin. There is private parking for one car at the side of They Bothy.
The Bothy has the added interest of being the original village school and is believed to be approximately 200 years old. Bothy is a word of Scottish origin from the mid 1500s meaning hut or cottage and often associated with summer accommodation for farm workers.
There is a good range of local amenities in the village. The Bothy is within easy reach of a number of quality restaurants, a number of National trust properties on the Castle Trail, some fantastic beaches, and the Formartine & Buchan Trail where you can walk or cycle. There are a range of outdoor activities within easy reach including golf, watersports, rally karting, off road driving, archery, rifle target shooting, clay pigeon shooting and fishing.
Whether you want peace and quiet or a more active week, the Bothy is the perfect base. From the moment you arrive your enjoyment will be our priority - in fact our preparations will begin before you arrive and will include our commitment to you finding the cottage spotless, and providing a welcome tray for you to enjoy before you unpack!
