About this property

A spacious and comfortable cottage

Stable Yard Cottage is a beautiful, spacious yet cosy cottage located in a secluded courtyard close to the heart of a little Scottish village. It has charming country views south across Blackadder River to Greenlaw Mill Farm and Catmoss Hill forming one of three sides of an open courtyard, together with walled yard and the estate wall of Castletoun House. Unusually for a village property the position offers a certain seclusion without being isolated.

The cottage has been sympathetically refurbished and furnished with a pleasing mix of contemporary and period furniture which gives it warm and homely feel. It is very spacious with all the bedrooms and two bathrooms situated upstairs leaving the kitchen, living/dining room and a utility room (with a toilet) downstairs. All rooms (except the laundry room) have open southerly country views giving the cottage this sunny and light feel to it.

This cottage is children and pet friendly and provides and excellent opportunity for the families get-together.

About the host

Host profile image
I wasn’t born in Scotland but chose to live her about fifteen years ago - and have never looked back. My working life is split between the holiday cottage business and freelance graphic and textile design, both of which are demanding but fortunately quite satisfying.
Any time that I have free after looking after my two small energetic boys and various dogs will see me walking, hiking and pursuing other outdoor activities - apart from the occasional dash into Edinburgh for the bright lights!
