Delightful detached sandstone cottage STB 4*, Laurencekirk

Aberdeenshire. Sleeps up to 5

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 good level.

This is the ideal setting for families and couples alike. The generous grounds offer large lawned areas in addition to private spacious nooks, and there are numerous private outside seating areas with a barbecue available.

The cottage enjoys close ample parking, right in front of the property.

This property sleeps up to 5 people comfortably, if you require accommodation for more than 5, please see P713818 (East Wing) which is 60 yards away.

A cot and highchair 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.
