Marvellous house for groups and families. The photos do not show the extent of the garden which is huge - plenty of seating areas and places for children to play.

A very pleasant stay in auld smiddy a one to come back to. We know the area well and this was an ideal location for us. We look forward to our next visit

We loved the location of Ruggles Cottage, being able to go for walks straight from the door. The area is very beautiful and peaceful. We loved the garden and the sound of the stream beside it. great base for exploring the area. The weather was such that we could spend a few evenings in the garden watching the swallows and house martins darting about and feeding a couple of their young that had not fledged yet. The resident deer in the field were lovely to view from a distance too.
