A very nice place to stay in the country with cattle looking at you through the window. A log burner fireplace added to to ambience. Tom was a chatty person and mad us feel welcome.

Beautiful Wee Cottage
We loved our getaway weekend at Drovers Cottage, a beautiful wee cottage with a gorgeous view out over the countryside. Far enough out of town to be away from the hustle and bustle, but close enough to only be a short drive to the town centre. Tom was just lovely, so welcoming and friendly, and the fresh bread and spreads were a lovely touch. We were very impressed with the rooster who waited until after 6am to sound his alarm clock :) We will definitely be back to stay again.

Great stay in a beautiful location
Tom was so welcoming, he even let us hold one of his chickens! The house is beautiful and lived all the small touches like breakfast foods, butter and milk. We loved hanging out by the pool and chatting with Tom. Highly recommend this place for a weekend away!
