Experience the charm and character of this gatehouse in Moray. Although some may find the style a little dated, you can't deny it's cosy. After a day walking or biking the beach trails in Culbin Forest, you can come home to a welcoming wood burner and an outdoor shed to store your biking gear. During the warmer months, spend your mornings in the lovely garden before heading out to explore the local area. With nearby attractions such as the River Spey, Brodie Castle, and Hardmuir farm shop, this home is a charming getaway.
