This wooden couple’s bolthole in the countryside of Central Scotland is perfect for a romantic getaway filled with sunset strolls, trips to nearby historic attractions and day hikes. Spend your evenings by the fire or dine alfresco under the stars with two canine companions by your side.
Climb a few steps to reach the front door of this wooden bothy and step inside to find a minimalist, Scandi-style open-plan living space. Natural light pours through the picture window and sliding glass doors into the lounge area with a blue sofa and armchair. In the corner is a wood burner with an exposed flue. Continue into the compact kitchen area to find a one-wall fitted kitchen with an electric oven, 2-ring hob and a fridge with an icebox. Ladder-style steps lead up to the mezzanine level with a super-king-size zip-and-link bed. Completing the interior is a shower room on the ground floor. Outside you’ll find furniture on the wooden decking and a firepit on the grassy area below. There is ample private parking.
During your stay in rural Scotland, you’ll be just 6 miles from Alloa. Set tails wagging with a walk around Gartmorn Dam Country Park (7 miles) or the Devilla Forest Red Squirrel Trail (6.5 miles). Head south to reach the Firth of Forth (4.5 miles away) where you can find the start of the 117-mile Fife Coastal Path in Kincardine. Sniff out the historic National Trust Dollar Glen (7 miles) and the imposing hilltop Stirling Castle (14 miles).
