Crosswoodhill Wing of Farmhouse - Sleeps 4 / 6 in 3 bedrooms. This 2-storey accommodation has a lovely ambience.

Downstairs is a fully equipped galley-style kitchen. Adjacent to the kitchen is a smallish living room/dining room, with a multi-fuel stove and flat-screen TV. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms and one bathroom. One has a double bed. The faraway bedroom quickly transforms into a second living room if needed: a quick make of the double bed, and a distribution of the cushions and this room becomes an attractive second living area with its extra sofa, single chairs, TV and table/desk. Teenagers love this room offering privacy to both them and their parents downstairs! Also upstairs is the third bedroom with a set of adult-size bunk beds. The Wing is graded high 3 STAR by VisitScotland.

The living/dining area is sumptuous with 2 very comfortable leather sofas, single armchairs and a multi-fuel stove.
