Rose Cottage

Nestled under a turf roof and oak beams, this idyllic 300 year old cottage on the Isle of Arran is the ideal island getaway. Rose Cottage is a Category B listed building of architectural and historic interest and it is believed to have been built in the 18th century as a "Long House" typical of the Western Isles at that time, built on falling ground with a sloping roof ridge. The owners have gone to considerable care to renovate the cottage incorporating green-oak framed trusses which support the turfed roof. Internally the cottage has been finished sensitively, combined with modern levels of comfort and amenity. This is a unique property offering a memorable holiday experience with south facing aspect in a rural location. The entire ground floor is finished with slate flagstone tiles with underfloor heating and a stable door. Steps lead up to open plan lounge area with an open fire set into the natural stone wall. There is a French door to the rear patio and steps lead up to the kitchen. The kitchen sits at a higher level and is equipped with integrated dishwasher, fridge, freezer, washing machine and gas hob with electric oven. The cottage offers romantic accommodation and well behaved dogs!
