Description
This newly built, cottage style accommodation has a light and airy feel with retro 60s styling. Highly insulated for winter warmth and summer cool.
Your holiday cottage is set in a quiet and safe corner of the vibrant and bohemian West End of Glasgow with its ample nightlife of bars, restaurants and clubs, independent shops, coffee bars, galleries and museums. This is an exclusive Victorian suburb, famous amongst architectural historians and part of the Glasgow West Conservation Area.
Enter from your private patio by french windows to a living room that glows with the late sun and is furnished with carefully restored, original sixties pieces. Warm ash flooring co-ordinates the entire ground floor. From the living room a short passageway with a feature stone wall leads past the wet room to the delightful, south-facing kitchen diner, used by many of our guests as a second living room. Upstairs the double bedroom has dormer and skylight windows facing east and west and a dramatic coombed ceiling. The living room and bedroom windows overlook the delightfully landscaped gardens whilst the glazed wall of the kitchen looks over a sheltered shared courtyard, ideal for outdoor breakfasts and morning coffees when the sun is shining.
Guests are welcome to use the garden, you will find there is always a little spot catching the sun. Parents of young children are, however, advised that there is a pond (with lots of frogs) in the garden.
