Lary Cottage, Ballater, Royal Deeside, Aberdeenshire, Scotland
3 Bedrooms, Sleeps 5/6
Property Details:

A delightful, traditional granite cottage set in its own spacious enclosed gardens on a quiet road close to the centre of Ballater. Graded 4 star by the Scottish Tourist Board, it is beautifully appointed and cosily decorated  with a wealth of rich colours and tartans

Activities are boundless on Deeside but a sample can include fishing, skiing, walking, biking, golfing etc. Set within the Cairngorm National Park, the surroundings are simply breathtaking.  Ballater is a very friendly village providing most of the day to day necessities, facilities and shops whilst still having that relaxed air of times gone by. The village centre is only approximately 2 or 3 minutes walk away.

Lary Cottage is a “dog friendly” establishment. Pets are welcome on the understanding that you treat the house with respect and clean and clear up after your dog.  There is some magnificent dog walking in the area and the Aga proves a very popular spot for pooches to “crash” after a vigorous hike in the countryside!

 

  • Lary Cottage has three bedrooms; a double, a twin and a single which has a shower and basin.
  • This single room also has a pull out bed to accommodate a sixth person but we must stress that space is very tight when this bed is used and we would only recommend its use for very agile people who don’t mind squashing in or for children.
  • Fully heated and with the delights of an Aga cooker in the sunny kitchen and an open fire in the first sitting room, the cottage provides a warm retreat during the winter months and a great base for exploration and activities all the year round.
  • The second sitting room has the original Victorian shutters and a log effect stove with lush tartan curtains.
  • There are two sitting rooms, one more formal and one less so with the TV, DVD, Hi-fi, squashy sofas and an open fire.
  • The dining kitchen is of a good size and having electric cooker and hob as well as the Aga which makes it especially cosy.
