Is Tack Bothy Right For You?

Discover why this cottage is ideal for different types of visitors

For Families
Tack Bothy is quite small at 17x11 feet and designed as a romantic retreat for couples. While kids might enjoy the wildlife pond, stream and 43 acres to explore, the compact space makes it less suitable for families. The hot tub and garden are great, but with just one studio room, there's limited space for children to play indoors.
For Couples
Tack Bothy is perfect for couples seeking privacy. The hot tub under starry skies is genuinely romantic. The wood burner keeps things cosy while you snuggle up watching Netflix. Wake to birdsong and breakfast with eggs from the owner's chickens. The compact space means you're always close and the total seclusion lets you truly reconnect without distractions.
Pet Friendly
Dogs will love the large fenced garden where they can run safely. The 43-acre wildlife site offers fantastic walks right from your door. Two dogs are welcome at £20 each. Previous guests mention it's ideal for anxious dogs due to the peaceful location. The stone floors are practical for muddy paws after countryside adventures.

We loved this good place! It's so peaceful and remote, perfect for escaping the hustle. Star gazing under the night sky with a glass of bubbly in the hot tub was just unbeatable. Definitely a special spot for us!
Emma
From the moment we arrived, Julia greeted us warmly and shared local tips, making us feel at home. The cottage was spotless and comfy, perfect for relaxing. We really enjoyed our peaceful escape surrounded by beautiful views!
Emma
We really enjoyed our stay! The spot is gorgeousand the setup is lovely. People nearby are super friendly. Only downside was the village pub closing early, which was a bit frustrating. Still, a great week!
Emma
The cottage was lovely and super cosy, the owners were really friendly and welcoming. Only gripe was, it wasn't long enough! Haha.
Mark
We had a fantastic stay at Tack Bothy! Loved the stunning views, the hot tub was a real treatand the BBQ was perfect for relaxing evenings. Access to lovely walks and nearby amenities made it a great escape. Definitely coming back!
George
From the start, the directions were clear and easy to follow. Julia's pre-arrival message was a nice touch, making us feel welcome and well-informed without being overbearing. Dave and Jenny genuinely felt like old friends, their helpfulness and relaxed attitude really stood out. Their knowledge was impressiveand nothing was ever too much trouble. Honestly, best doggie holiday we've had. Thanks a lot!
Emma
We had a lovely stay at Tack Bothyand our dogs loved it too! It's perfect for them to run freely in the secure garden and the nearby field. The surroundings are stunningand we enjoyed walking through the quiet lanes and even crossing the stream into Wales to visit the local shop and pub. The hosts were really thoughtful, making sure we had everything we needed. Just a heads up - the bothy isn't very big, so bigger dogs might find it a bit cramped. Overall, a great little escape!
Emma
We loved the cosy vibe and peaceful setting, ideal for our nervous pups to stretch out and sniff around. The hosts were genuinely welcoming and helpful. Relaxing in the hot tub with those stunning views was just what we needed. We'll definitely return!
Emma
Really loved the cosy space, everything was handyand the view from the location was just gorgeous! Would definitely recommend.
Emma
This place was lovely, with stunning views that really made our stay special. The hot tub was perfect after long daysand the wood burner added a cosy touch. We had a fantastic week and plan to come back!
Alex
This cottage was so charming and comfy, really gave us that homely vibe. Everything we needed was thereand we both left feeling totally relaxed. The hot tub was a highlight! The peaceful surroundings and friendly owner make this place a must-visit again soon.
Emily
We loved the secluded spot, it's super cosy-think big camper van but comfy enough for two. The owner was really friendly and approachable, making us feel right at home. Perfect for dogs too, with a secure field on-site. Just a heads up-bring a blanket or soft bed since there's no space for a crate. The fridge is tiny, so no room for big bottles, but there's a small freezer and extra fridge space. It's a great little getaway if you're after peace and quietand we'd definitely return again!
Emily
We had a lovely stay at Tack Bothy! The views are truly breathtaking and made relaxing so easy. Caroline was fantastic-she looked after us and our playful pup really well, which made everything so much smoother. The place is pretty small, but it's cosy and super clean, well-stocked too. Honestly, we'd recommend it to anyone wanting a peaceful break surrounded by beautiful scenery. Definitely a place to return to!
Emma
Despite the cosy size, we found everything we needed, making our Christmas really special. The owner was lovelyand we lacked for nothing at all!
Emma
The bothy was well-equipped, comfyand made our week really enjoyable.
Emma
The place is really lovely, super peaceful, perfect for a couple of relaxing days. Everything was handled really well!
James
The view from Tack Bothy is stunningand relaxing in the hot tub was absolutely fantastic. Loved it!
Emily
Lovely little cottage! It is quite small but has everything you need. It's on a steep hill, so be prepared for that! There's an overflow fridge freezer, so bring whatever you need. A washing machine and drier are available if you need themand the hot tub was simply blissful.
James
Such a beautiful place! We definitely recommend it for anyone looking to unwind and enjoy the scenery.
