About this property

Charming cottage in picturesque rural setting

Completely renovated in 2022, Arngomery Cottage is a charming property set within beautiful surroundings. It forms a self-contained wing of the old coach house and stables of Arngomery Court. The two bedroom cottage has been furnished sympathetically and includes a wood burning stove in the comfortable and spacious living/dining room. The bathroom has been fully refurbished and the kitchen living room area has been opened up to create a large kitchen/living/dining room. A brand new kitchen and heating system have also been installed. Outside there is a private terrace and guests are free to enjoy the picturesque and tranquil grounds of approximately 2 acres. For young children there is a play area with a trampoline and swing. Linen, towels, cleaning and 2 baskets of logs are included in the price. Well behaved dogs are welcome (additional charge of £30). Neighboring Arngomery Stables is also available to rent for larger groups of family and friends.

Although surrounded by mature trees and fields, a pleasant 10 minute walk takes you to the little village of Kippen with its two good pub/restaurants, village shop and coffee shop. This is a great central location from which to explore the rest of Scotland. Stirling Castle and the lochs and mountains of the Trossachs are a short drive away while Edinburgh and Glasgow are just over an hour’s drive. The Highlands and the east and west coasts can also all be reached very easily.

About the host

Hosted by Deborah Quinn

Host profile image
We moved back to Scotland from London in 2004 and since then have been living in Arngomery Court and renting out the adjoining Arngomery Cottage. We love living in this characterful old property and over the years have been gradually refurbishing and improving things. It's a lot of work but we don't mind as its such a special place. Also, we have met many wonderful guests over the years and very much enjoy welcoming them back. We are now very excited with our new second cottage, Arngomery Stables and can't wait to welcome lots of new guests in 2021.

Why they chose this property

The cottage benefits from being out in the countryside but close enough to walk
to Kippen village. It is very peaceful and surrounded by wildlife (birds of prey, roe deer, rabbits). At night it is dark and you can see the stars. There are over 2 acres of garden and woodland for guests to enjoy along with their own private dining and garden area. Kippen is a great location. It is a lovely village with 2 great pubs, a cafe, and local shop. The village is great for walking and is surrounded by woodland which dog walkers particularly enjoy. One can easily explore the Trossachs and Loch Lomond and the cities of Stirling, Glasgow and Edinburgh.

What makes this property unique

Beautiful peaceful surroundings but within walking distance of the village. Also characterful and spacious cottage with a large log burner.
