“Red Squirrel Cottage truly immerses one in the Aberdeenshire landscape, with its woodland setting inviting exploration and the comforting presence of local wildlife, including the namesake red squirrel. The cosy atmosphere, particularly enhanced by the wood-burning stove during a winter stay, coupled with comfortable beds, creates a deeply relaxing retreat. It's this blend of nature, comfort, and responsive hosting that leaves a lasting impression.”
