Read All ReviewsI have mobility problems and Cottoneaster Cottage was perfect. Quiet location with horses for company. Really well equipped, they really have thought of everything. Cosy, quaint and homely ideal for chilling out after exploring Scotland. Beds are comfy and with a dishwasher and washing machine it was perfect. is very welcoming and friendly and there’s lots of info about places to go. Most places of interest weren’t very disabled friendly and are very hilly, however we hired a mobility scooter from a nearby town and it managed the hills very well. Enjoyed our stay.
