Littleton Cottage

Littleton cottage is perfect for a get away. It is cozy and well appointed We enjoyed our stay and would love to come back

We stayed here (4 adults) and made Littleton Cottage our home base for several day trips in the Scottish Highlands. The cottage was well furnished, very clean and exquisitely appointed with lovely furnishings and good linens. A washing machine and clothes tumbler were so helpful since we’d been traveling for several days prior. (There is not a wardrobe or closets for hanging clothes.)The grounds/garden were stunning, with foxgloves, thistle and more in full bloom during our stay. We took several walks on the estate and saw the nearby sheep and cows, the MacKenzie baronetcy ruins and lots of wild life, since it is so close to the River Dee.The town of Ballater is very close by and has a Co-Op, lots of shops and restaurants and is bustling with visitors and locals this time of year. It’s 20 minutes to Balmoral Castle and Royal Lochnagar Distillery. I highly recommend this property!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The kitchen was very well equipped. The only thing we felt was missing was a wardrobe. An added bonus would have been a bird table on the patio.

I cannot tell you how much my wife and I enjoyed the Littleton cottage, Ballater and the entire area. The cottage is perfectly located…easy trip into town for supplies or a lovely coffee at The BothyBallater, and yet the cottage is quiet and peaceful. We had a lovely visit with the neighbor’s sheep and saw some cute, just born lambs. The deer and pheasants made the stay that much better. Can’t wait to plan a trip back!

The cottage is set in a beautiful location in woodland with hills beyond. Ballater is the nearest small town which is 20 mins walk away with cafes, shops and restaurants. We had a lovely time. Highly recommended.

for us it was a relaxing environment in a very busy week. Our participation in the Royal Deeside golf week could not be better than from this beautiful house. in the house everything is present and clean. The access road to the house can be a problem for low cars, in our case it resulted in a flat tire due to the loose stones.

We had a wonderful week in this well equiped cottage. Nothing was missing, except some pint glases for beer lovers. But this is nothing essential ;) we would love to come back some day. Ballater is a lively small town that welcomes you!

Spotlessly clean, very good facilities, remote location

Littleton is one of the best properties we have ever stayed in. We absolutely loved the tranquility of the location and inside the cottage was spacious, comfortable and well equipped. We didn’t want to leave.

We had a problem accessing the property when we arrived and Jacqui and Lynn could not have been more helpful in getting it resolved. The cottage's location is beautiful and so peaceful and the cottage itself is very well equipped with everything we needed. Thank you.
