Buckley Cottage - Accommodation

The cottage was completely refurbished inside in 2000, without compromising any of its charm.  It has homely furnishings, a well-equipped kitchen and sleeps 8 comfortably in three bedrooms. There is potential to sleep two more if the sitting room’s sofa bed is also used.  We also have a floor-mattress (in bedroom 1) which we use for children.

We provide duvets and pillows but tenants need to bring all sheets, duvet covers, pillowcases and towels with them.

Well-behaved dogs are welcome.

Heating and hot water

There are centrally timed / controlled night storage heaters with booster facilities in all the main rooms; the kitchen has a floor level fan heater for warming your toes on chilly mornings; and the bathroom has both storage and fan heaters.  And then there’s the Jötul log burner in the sitting room (first basket of wood provided; after that, we ask you to supply your own)… 

The hot water is electrically heated overnight but may need boosting during the day if you have lots of people staying.

Accessibility

We regret that the cottage is not suitable for anyone who has access difficulties. It is located up a steep section of a narrow road, up some stone steps and along a short but uneven path. Internally, it also has steep winding stairs and no ground floor bathroom facilities.
