LAUNDRY - The laundry is within the good sized bathroom. A washing machine and tumble drier are neatly concealed behind bi-fold doors as are an iron and ironing board.
PATIO - The house is accessed via the fully covered patio. There is comfortable outdoor seating plus dining table and chairs for relaxed alfresco meals . This area is flanked by hanging plants and trees from the garden.
GARDEN - There is a grass area on the right of the driveway when entering the carport. Children or your dog can play here but please note that this area is not fenced and people accessing the cottage behind ALBA will walk past it.
CARPORT/DRIVEWAY - There is a two car carport, however only the right hand space is allocated to ALBA Cottage. There is an area to reverse into to ease exiting the steep driveway.
On entering the carport, guests access ALBA Cottage via the white lattice gate. There is a key safe where you will find the large key to the double doors on the patio.
Myself and my husband live nearby. Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
P E T S:
We love all animals but have made the cottage available to guests with DOGS ONLY. Sorry, no cats for the reasons stipulated below.
If you have another pet you would like to bring, please advise us in a message and we will assess each request.
Airbnb hosts have to choose whether to be `Pet Friendly` or not. However, Airbnb does not specify what qualifies as a `pet.`
eg I know someone that has a pet pig. I would not want a pet to stay at the property.
WHY NO CATS:
Unknown to them, a friend had a guest stay with a cat. The cat used furniture as a scratching post, made pulls in rugs and blankets with its claws. To make it worse, she was allergic to cats, as are many people.
WHEN STAYING WITH YOUR DOG:
Please bring your your dog`s bed and food bowl with you and don`t let it on the bed and furniture in the cottage.
Some guests roll up the rugs, especially with long-haired dogs. We really appreciate it if you choose to do this.
Please also pick up your dog`s poop from the garden and dispose of it in an appropriate place.
Thank you for your understanding.
GARDEN:
Although we are keen gardeners you might not think it at the moment!! We are still trying to `tame` the garden without spoiling the `wildness.`
No parties
No smoking in house or patio
Quiet times 9pm to 8am
No pets on beds or furniture. No cats
Only use of bedroom(s) requested at time of booking

Delightful little cottage in a wooded setting with nice Scottish touches. Very functional for two or four people, pleasant outside terrace, just a bit frugal with the basic provisions.
10 / 10Outstanding·Sep 2025
It has felt like home away from home at Alba. We have thoroughly enjoyed exploring the region ( thanks to your map brochure) and relaxing each afternoon return on the sunny verandah. Dinners at night were easy at the cottage and morning dog walks down to Obi weir just the right amount of exercise. Would definitely recommend to friends and family.
