Wattie Cottage - Loch Katrine

Nestled in the heart of Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park and close to the banks of the magnificent Loch Katrine, find peace, tranquillity and an abundance of wildlife on the doorstep of this holiday home. Sleeping eight in four bedrooms, this lovely lodge is perfect for couples, families or a group of friends – including the four-legged ones! Return to recharge the batteries with a glass of wine in front of the roaring wood burner and a day exploring sparkling lochs, woodland trails, crumpled hills, sleepy forests and welcoming villages.

Blending authentic charm with modern comforts, gilded mirrors and antique furniture complement contemporary colour palettes and elegant finishes. This traditional yet quirky home is both welcoming and comfortable, with warm wooden floors and cream walls providing a backdrop for bright, patterned soft furnishings, striking wallpaper and some stylish features.

The kitchen/diner is charming with its large table perfect for gathering everyone together for sociable dining after cooking a delicious meal, whilst the utility room is ideal for storing outdoor gear as well as a dog bed or two. Find ample comfortable seating in the elegant and spacious living room, light and bright during the day yet snug once the wood burner is lit. Enjoy cosy nights in with your feet up watching a movie as the amber flames flicker.

Serene for a peaceful night’s sleep, the four bedrooms are bright with simple furnishings complemented with quirky wallpaper. The twin bedroom and the lovely shower room are on the ground floor, whilst upstairs, the charming king-size bedroom has its own en-suite shower room. A further stylish king-size bedroom, a lovely double bedroom and a classic bathroom where a long soak can be enjoyed complete the rooms. Wake to dappled sunlight to enjoy a morning coffee in the pretty garden.

The property is nestled by the banks of Loch Katrine in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and just a short stroll away up a flight of steps, you can find a seating area that has magnificent views over the water. Children and dogs will love exploring as you sit and enjoy a good local ale, wee dram or a nice glass of wine as the sun sets on another day of fun.
