Huswell - Oldschool - Exclusive house surrounded by a dyke

Summary:
Next to Gairnshiel Lodge lays Old School, completely surrounded by a dyke.

The building has a rich history, initially functioning as a school, providing education to local communities.

As time passed, it transformed into a cherished holiday retreat, offering relaxation and leisure to those seeking respite. The house has seen generations come and go, each leaving their mark and memories within its walls.

Its enduring legacy continues, providing a warm welcome to all who seek refuge in its natural surroundings.

Experience the tranquility of nature with your loved ones in this charming old-school cottage. Nestled amidst lush greenery, this fully private retreat offers you direct access to the beauty of the outdoors, allowing you to immerse yourself between the Scottish Hills.

The cottage offers three cozy rooms, each equipped with a queen-size bed, and an additional room with three single beds. We take pride in providing our guests with high-quality toiletries from Honest Skincare, known for their organic, ethical, and handmade products crafted in the heart of Birmingham.

Getting Around:
Old School Cottage lays in an area full of outdoor activities, including hiking, biking, and fishing. You'll find our most luxurious accommodation, The lodge, next to the cottage. Both can be conveniently rented together.
