Scottish Cottages
Instead of staying in a hotel on your next holiday to Scotland, why don’t you consider staying in one of the many Scottish cottages and lodges available across the country?
Scottish cottages can be a cottage on the side of the loch, a lodge nestled in the woods, a house in a town or you could even stay in one of the many castles in Scotland?
The castles of Scotland are popular especially for those looking for a romantic break, or those with a large group of people who want to take advantage of needing so much space, do it in style and enjoy taking part in such an important piece of history.
Facilities in Scottish Cottages
Scottish cottages will be fully furnished and equipped with all the facilities you have in your own home washing machines, televisions, cookers and fridges are just some of the things you can expect at a cottage. The more luxury cottages may have some beautifully romantic extras such as four poster beds, fruit and champagne on arrival, saunas and whirlpool baths.
Why choose a Scottish Cottage?
Scottish cottages have many advantages compared to hotels, mainly the privacy and personal touch you can make on the holiday whilst staying in a cottage. Another important advantage of booking a Scottish holiday cottage compared to a hotel is the cost, if you are staying in a four star hotel for one week the cost will be around £700 for two people. If you stay in a four star rated Scottish holiday cottage depending on the size you will find it will cost around £200 to a max of £500 for the week for two people. A significant saving and money you can spend better elsewhere! Larger groups can make even further savings. A family group of six for instance, grandparents, parents and two children would need at least 2 rooms in the hotel depending on age of the children and this would cost around £1400 for the week. A Scottish holiday cottage sleeping six people across two rooms will cost at the most around £600, a huge £800 saving!
Many of the Scottish cottages will allow you to bring pets which is another advantage for pet owners who struggle to find hotels and bed and breakfasts that are pet friendly. The combination of spacious accommodation, home comforts, no strangers or other animals and garden access will all ensure that you pet will have a happy holiday!
A holiday cottage in Scotland is perfect for those wanting to stay for an extended period of time, with minimum stays usually one week it would be possible to book some cottages for a month or more depending on availability and other bookings. If you are currently battling the stresses of the city and need some time out to get back to who you are a relaxing break in a secluded area of Scotland in somewhere such as the highlands may be just want you need. You can take the time away to find yourself, enjoy a book, fish in a loch or take long leisurely walks through the countryside along the walkways.
