Happy New Year to all our guests from around the World. Our new Lodge arrives next week and we are excited to get it furnished and set up in time for the start of the Season at Easter
Watch this space for photos.

Our final guests of 2025 have gone home and it was very fitting that they were folks who have been coming to the cottage for 15 years. The cottage will now revert back to a permanent home for our Family and we are delighted and excited to having our grandchildren next door to watch them grow and flourish on the Croft.
A new Brescalan Lodge is being constructed and will be available to rent from March 2026. Small but perfectly formed and all shiny and new, it will sit in the field just the other side of the burn from our house. It will have one double bedroom and a sofa bed in the lounge area so will sleep 2 -3 persons and of course it will have the same stunning south west facing views as the cottage has.
It has been wonderful, greeting returning guests over the years and welcoming new guests from all over the world and we look forward to continuing to do so in Brescalan Lodge. We will post photos on the progress of this exciting new project soon

The Daffodils are dancing in the breeze. Our new born Calves and an early lamb are all close by so hopefully they will have a great holiday

Their Great Grandfather actually built the Cottage around 1903. Quite a lot of changes have been made over the years but the core of the old house is still intact
