Once the village gambling house, it has been saved from demolition and renovated in a traditional but modern country style with lots of added details and little luxuries. The Magic Cottage offers absolute peace and quiet, away from the crowd, in the stunning countryside surroundings of a friendly village full of rustic charm, welcoming locals and with beautiful walks with fabulous views right from the door. Guests are advised to have their own car but I am happy to collect guests from Praid should they wish to arrive by bus. The entire top floor of this one hundred year old cottage has been converted into an extremely spacious, light and stylish modern guest suite with vintage accents offering peace and privacy. The room has its own private terrace overlooking the garden and the forest beyond. Guests are given keys to the suite and the front gates and can come and go as they please.
