Nestled in a charming rural spot with the distinctive three peaks of the Eildon Hills on the horizon and the dappled Mill stream running nearby, the cottage is perfect for families and large groups to relax and unwind.
The Threshing Mill Cottage is made up of two individual cottages, The Mill House and The Wheel House. An inner-connecting door between the two adjoining properties allows guests to come and go between the two while benefitting from extra space for relaxation or cooking.
On the ground floor, the two generously sized sitting rooms have been stylishly decorated with bright bold fabrics and throws adding a pop of colour to the warm neutrals of each room. The sitting room in The Wheel House has the added benefit of large French doors opening out into the garden.
While both kitchens are well-equipped, guests may prefer to gather in The Wheel House’s bright spacious kitchen which has a large farmhouse kitchen seating eight guests with an additional table available on request, making it a sociable space where the whole family can gather to make plans for the next day’s adventures while enjoying dinner.
Across the two cottages are four bedrooms, each benefitting from its own en-suite facilities. All bedrooms are elegantly decorated with a soft and soothing theme throughout. There are two king-sized beds, one fixed twins and one zip and link bed, ideal for various family sleeping arrangements.
Stepping outside, you will find the pretty, sheltered lawned gardens, surrounded by a variety of colourful shrubs and sprinkled with dappled light from the bordering woodland. The garden of The Wheel House is shared with the adjoining Woodman’s Cottage. However, if you are looking for a more private space to relax and enjoy the tranquil setting while listening to the sounds of nature, then you’ll find The Mill House’s private garden the perfect haven.
Families with children will also enjoy use of the separate games room. With a table tennis and football table, as well as a Nintendo Wii and a range of board games and books, there is plenty to keep everyone entertained on a rainy day.
