Dunecht, Aberdeenshire

6

Stable Cottage, located in the charming village of Sauchen near Dunecht in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, offers a delightful retreat for families or groups of up to six people. This stone-fronted property is situated on a working farm, surrounded by donkeys, chickens, and a picturesque pond, making it a perfect base for those eager to explore the beautiful countryside. Visitors are welcomed by three off-road parking spaces, allowing easy access to the cottage, where the fresh, earthy air and lush greenery create a serene atmosphere.

Inside Stable Cottage, guests are greeted by a hexagonal hallway designed for storing walking boots and raincoats, preparing them for outdoor adventures. The open-plan living space features two comfortable leather sofas positioned near a cozy open fire, ideal for relaxation after a day of exploration. The well-equipped kitchen boasts wooden worktops and modern appliances, including an electric oven, hob, washer, and dishwasher, making it easy to prepare hearty meals. The rustic dining table provides a space for family gatherings, while outdoor furniture on the patio offers a lovely setting for alfresco dining amidst the natural surroundings.

The cottage includes a ground-floor bathroom with a luxurious soaking tub and a walk-in shower, catering to various preferences for relaxation. Accommodations consist of a king-size double bedroom on the ground floor, suitable for those with limited mobility, and two additional bedrooms upstairs—another double and a twin—each featuring stylish grey walls. Families will appreciate the outdoor amenities, including a swing set for children and a tranquil pond, perfect for enjoying sunny days in the garden.

Stable Cottage serves as an excellent launching point for exploring local historical sites such as the Sunhoney and Whitehill Stone Circles, as well as the medieval Castle Fraser, Garden & Estate. A short drive leads to the vibrant town of Aberdeen, where visitors can discover the maritime museum, Duthie Park Winter Gardens, and various whiskey distilleries. The nearby town of Alford offers attractions like the Grampian Transport Museum, while Inverurie, known as the 'Heart of the Garioch,' features impressive castles, shopping centers, and quaint cafes. For a memorable getaway in the unspoiled beauty of Aberdeenshire, Stable Cottage is the ideal choice.
